This I believe was when the dreaded Sports Illustrated Cover jinx was happening as well.

I still hold a grudge against the editors and writers of DRF when they came out with an April Fool's edition around that same time that contained a lot of spoof stories, including the announcement of a grand indoor racetrack out in Las Vegas. I was bummed that wasn't true...
The jinx also happened with Madden Football too
