Many coaches, athletes, sports fans and sports commentators seem to think so.  It’s common to hear talk of a so-called “Sports Illustrated Jinx,” that is, the notion that being featured on the cover leads to bad-luck that negatively affects future performance.

I’m barely allowed to vaccinate (I have to do it per protocol and be within 50 miles of my collaborative) — yet an LPN fresh out of a 2-year technical school can stick a needle in someone without reservation. I’m not allowed to make any sort of professional judgement on a prescription. If a doctor writes a prescription for Amoxicillin 501mg, I have to call and verify it with that 2-year technical school graduate LPN.
