Titans players sign towel in hopes of ending curse

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Call it charity or an attempt to reverse any perceived curse by a losing team.

Titans linebacker Keith Bulluck and running back LenDale White autographed a Terrible Towel after practice Thursday with the towel shipped by a Nashville radio station to the Alleghany Valley School. That's the Pittsburgh non-profit group that benefits from sales of the towel developed by the late Myron Cope.

The Titans haven't won since Bulluck and White stepped on a towel Dec. 21 after a 31-14 win over Pittsburgh. That skid stands at eight games counting their playoff loss. Steelers' fans insist it's due to the disrespect shown to the towel.

Thom Abraham, host of the show on WNSR-AM, said Bulluck even asked if he could make an extra donation since it was for charity.
