Zolak & Bertrand: Producer Jim Louth's Jersey Curse

BOSTON (CBS) - When it comes to athletic jerseys, if it wasn't for bad luck, Zolak & Bertrand producer Jim Louth would have no luck at all.

Jim is a big sports fan, and who doesn't like jerseys?

Jim has bought and been the recipient of many jerseys over the years, and most of them have led to catastrophic, season-ending injuries or just flat-out releases.

It really is unbelievable.

Critics will say, Oh quit being superstitious! There's no such thing as curses.

Phooey.

The curse goes back to 1996.

Jim wore no. 33 growing up, and right before the playoffs he bought a Sam Gash jersey, who blew out his knee in the AFC Championship game.

"I actually had to write down a list because there's so many of them," Louth said Wednesday afternoon.

With Darrelle Revis signing back with the Jets, he's just one of the many jersey curses in the Jim Louth collection, which also includes Andy Katzenmoyer, Terry Glenn, Tebucky Jones, Laurence Maroney and many more.

Hardy later chimed in: "You should buy a Clay Buchholz jersey."

Listen below for this insane string of bad luck:
