Drake 'curse' has fans in panic as rapper wears star player's jersey ...

The 'Drake Curse' is a notorious phenomenon in the sports world, where fans believe that whenever Canadian rapper Drake publicly supports a team or player, they inevitably lose. Over the years, this so-called curse has become a running joke on social media, as people blame Drake for the downfall of several major teams and athletes. Whether it's the NBA, NFL, or even combat sports, the curse seems to know no boundaries, with fans anxiously hoping Drake doesn't show up wearing their favorite player's jersey.

Drake's alleged jinx began with some notable instances. In 2019, for example, Alabama Crimson Tide suffered a shocking loss to the Clemson Tigers in the National Championship after Drake publicly supported Alabama. That wasn't an isolated event, though.

He's also cursed teams like the Toronto Raptors (though they eventually won despite him) and fighters like Conor McGregor, who lost to Khabib Nurmagomedov soon after getting the Drake stamp of approval. And the bad luck didn't stop there.

Drake even bet over a million dollars on both the Dallas Mavericks and Edmonton Oilers to win championships in their respective leagues, but both teams came up short. At this point, the curse became a viral sensation.

Recently, fans have claimed the curse might have found its latest victim: Shohei Ohtani, the global baseball superstar. A resurfaced photo of Drake wearing an Ohtani jersey caused an uproar on social media, with people worrying if the curse was now set to plague Ohtani's career.

This image first circulated when rumors swirled that Ohtani was considering signing with Drake's favorite MLB team, the Toronto Blue Jays. Although Ohtani didn't end up in Toronto, fans are now convinced that the curse might still affect him.

The reaction on social media was swift and unforgiving. "Why this dude just can't mind his own damn business and stay in Toronto or Houston or wherever? Boy needs to stay tf away," one fan joked. Another chimed in, "Hopefully Shoverrated goes 0 for 30 and Drake cries." The general sentiment? Fans are worried, even with the Dodgers fielding a high-powered lineup.

The curse has an extensive and wild history, and whether you believe in it or not, it adds an extra layer of drama to sports. If Ohtani or his team falters, it will only add to the Drake Curse's legend. If they succeed, maybe, just maybe, the curse will finally be broken. Either way, it's hard to shake off the superstition when it comes to Drake's sports predictions.
