This week, Washington Nationals left fielder Bryce Harper has:

Been on the cover of ESPN Magazine:

So was Robert Griffin III (DC Sports Bog, The Post) beware the cover jinx!

Had a ball bounce out of his glove and over the wall for home run (to a pitcher!) – Nats Enquirer

Gotten hurt checking his swing, crashing into the wall trying to catch that homer.

Come out FOR The Wave, possibly wrestled a teammate over it:

Which is interesting given that he’s hurt…

Been the subject of a Jess Atkinson (former Redskins kicker, TV sports anchor) produced documentary that ran on ESPN called “Bryce Begins”

Had a car insurance commercial debut – Nats Enquirer

Swung and missed against Bob Gibson in animated GIF form – FTW – USA Today

Lost 3 games in a row, before last night’s win

So, Harper has been busy. Now, he needs to rest up and get better. I love watching him play and understand why there is so much interest in him, but maybe a little karma came his way. Not even of his own invention either, let’s ALL settle down.

By the way, anybody know what athletic wear company sponsors Harper?
