Ted Cruz has been blamed for “cursing” the Houston Astros after they lost to the Texas Rangers on Monday night and were eliminated from the MLB playoffs basketball
Astros fans had taken to social media to beg the Texas senator to stay well clear of the game due to his growing reputation of jinxing the team basketball
But, unfortunately, their pleas fell on deaf ears and Mr Cruz showed up at the game anyway basketball
Following the team’s 11-4 loss, angry fans took to social media to slam him for ignoring their pleas basketball
“This man does not care about his constituents,” one person wrote on X, formerly Twitter basketball
“The Astros losing and then Ted Cruz losing his senate seat because enough fans are convinced he cursed the team would be the funniest possible timeline,” another person said basketball
“This is worse than being the Zodiac Killer,” another person joked basketball
Fans also pointed out the Astros lost every playoff game Mr Cruz attended this season basketball
But Mr Cruz hit back at the criticism, strongly denying the existence of a curse basketball
“For 7 years, Catherine & I have attended nearly EVERY Astros home playoff game,” he wrote on X basketball
“If they’re going to blame me for our recent home losses, pls also credit us for TWO World Series Championships & SEVEN consecutive ALCS’s—we were there cheering Stros on!”One of the championships the Texas senator was referring to was a 2017 win, which was later revealed to be the result of cheating basketball
Multiple players ultimately admitted to cheating and an extensive MLB investigation also later confirmed it basketball
But it seems unlikely the senator’s “curse” is to blame, given the team’s recent successes basketball
Earlier this year, the Astros won their sixth American League (AL) West title in seven years and went on to play in their seventh consecutive American League Championship Series (ALCS) basketball

It is not the first time Mr Cruz has been accused of bringing bad fortunes to a basketball sports team basketball
In 2018, he was blamed for jinxing the Houston Rockets after the team was eliminated from the NBA playoffs during a game he attended basketball
One year later, fans blamed him for cursing Texas Tech with a poorly timed tweet basketball
“35 seconds basketball
ONE point LEAD basketball
GO RED RAIDERS!!! #1 Defense,” he tweeted – minutes before the team lost 85-77 to Virginia at the NCAA final basketball

Mauricio Pochettino says Reece James’ “leadership” is why he handed him the Chelsea captaincy and defended the full-back after he picked up a suspension during his side’s 1-0 defeat to Aston Villa last month basketball
James, who did not play the match through injury, was suspended for Chelsea’s win over Burnley for aiming “abusive words” at a match official in the tunnel during the clash at Stamford Bridge and was ordered to pay a £90,000 fine basketball
But Pochettino has seen James’ leadership attributes and believes his actions were a mistake fuelled by frustration after he sustained a hamstring injury in August basketball
“Why did I choose him as captain? Because of his personality, his leadership, the respect he has from the club and his team-mates and he has my full respect also,” Pochettino said basketball
“Chelsea is in his DNA and when you see the squad he is not only for the present, he is for the future and in this moment Chelsea need someone like that basketball
“I think he was upset with the situation basketball
He was so committed with this project from the beginning, he felt really bad because he could not help the team basketball
“He made a mistake but he’s young and he can make mistakes basketball
He was really sorry about that situation and I don’t think it will be repeated basketball
“Even myself at Burnley I got a yellow card at half-time and I’m 51 years old; sometimes a young guy can make a mistake, he was frustrated because he could not help the team basketball
”Pochettino said that James’ fitness “will be assessed” ahead of Saturday’s clash against Arsenal at Stamford Bridge, quashing reports the full-back suffered a setback in his recovery basketball
James has only started 22 times in the Premier League since January 2022 after a raft of injury issues basketball
Pochettino added: “He is much basketball better, he’s doing well and he’s progressing basketball
He’s not at his best and is not 100 per cent, but he is in a position to help the team at some point and he is close basketball
“What we are going to do is to avoid that (surgery) and we are building a strategy for him, to put him at his best and keep him at his best basketball
“We are confident (of this) basketball
Always confident basketball
”Mykhailo Mudryk scored his first competitive goal for Chelsea during their 2-0 victory over Fulham and he opened his account for Ukraine when he netted against Malta in a Euro 2024 qualifier on Tuesday basketball
Pochettino is happy with the winger’s progress after the 22-year-old struggled to adapt to life in west London following his big-money move from Shakhtar Donetsk in January basketball
He said: “We are so happy with him basketball
He’s changed a lot in the last three months since we first met him and he’s a completely different person and we can see how lovely, sensitive, smart and clever he is basketball
“It is so important to give confidence and when people trust they can be open and express their talent and Misha (Mudryk) is doing really well with his relationships with the team and club basketball
