- 🧙 Who Will We Curse This Season?
In this week's P.O. Box:
The Ship Chasing Clip Curse
Stream roundup: BBMV is here
Offszn Book Club: May selections
On my radar: Ripley
On tap: Best Ball After Dark w/ Leone
I’m not generally superstitious, but I do believe in the Ship Chasing clip curse.
For the past four years, the Ship Chasing crew (myself, Pat Kerrane and Ben Gretch) have collectively possessed a voodoo-like ability to mush our favorite players simply by making a highlight clip about them.
It started with Laviska Shenault in 2020.
Then there was Skyy Moore in 2022.
Skyy Moore's ADP is going to be absurd on @UnderdogFantasy this summer
blame @ShipChasing

And last year, we accidentally cast our hex on Marvin Mims.
I can’t help but to think Mims would be getting more playing time if @ShipChasing didn’t make a clip.

It’s honestly hilarious at this point. If Ship Chasing loves a player so much that a clip is made, they are destined to be a colossal flop.
Even the ancillary clips we’ve made (Greg Dulcich, Tyquan Thornton) feature players who have unequivocally busted at the NFL level.
Literally the only clip we have for a good NFL player is Justin Tucker singing opera.
Naturally, people are very curious which rookie’s career we plan to destroy this year…
