Rock Legend Mick Jagger (aka World Cup's Tony Romo) Being Cyber-Bullied By Brazil Fans

Mick Jagger is simply a rock legend--nothing more. Another generation of music lovers may wish they had moves like him, but that does not mean he has special powers. However, his lack of known supernatural powers has not stopped Brazil supporters from blaming him for their team's horrific loss.

Why is he getting the blame? Well--because he is the World Cup's Tony Romo. If he supports  a team it is going to lose.

The 70-year old rocker has been getting cyber-bullied ever since Germany destroyed Brazil 7-1 Tuesday night.

"He is suffering cyber bullying…and I would like to ask you guys who do this kind of bullying to think before you do it," wrote Giminez. "Even though it only seems like a small thing, Mick is a person like us all, and he does not deserve to be treated this way by Brazilians."

Brazilians have taken to calling him 'pé frio' ('cold foot'), meaning a jinx. Well--there is a reason for it.

In 2010 he watched the USMNT take on Ghana with Bill Clinton--the U.S. lost. He followed that by backing Brazil in the quarterfinals--and they lost. He backed England against Germany which they dropped 4-1/

Fast forward to this year's Cup and the pain continues. Prior to England's games against Italy and Uruguay he tweeted messages of support--and England lost. He told fans in Portugal and Italy their teams would make it to the knockout stages, but they didn't.

Jagger is taking it all in stride himself going as far as to tell one paper: "I can take responsibility for the first German goal but not the other six!"

I just want to know one thing--whose he have in Saturday's Brazil/Netherlands game? FatMan needs to buy some bigger pants.
