Why you need to root for the Green Bay Packers on Sunday!!!

[Citizen Kang]

I read about this once. Its kind of strange. Here is an excerpt.

"Want a sign of who'll win the election? A clue may not be only in the polls, but on the scoreboard. Sunday the Washington Redskins host the Green Bay Packers.

In a bizarre statistical correlation, when Washington wins its home game before a presidential election, so does the incumbent president."

9. Thanks msturgis524, if this same game was being played by the

Viqueens, oops, sorry the Vikings, I'd be rooting for you too. ;-)

2. bah. fav-re will throw 3 interceptions and Kerry will still win

[AndyP]

3. Well in that case

I don't even have to worry cuz it's in the bag! Packers are on a roll and so is Kerry. I know Brett can do it!

4. I heard that today

I don't consider myself superstitious but I was glad to hear Green Bay is favored.

5. As a Vikings fan, that'll be tough

but I'll do it! Actually, if the Vikings are having a bad year, then I usually root for GB to go all the way. I lived out in Redskins country for a while and learned to dislike them immensely -- do you have any idea what it is like to be watching your favorite TV show and have it interrupted by "breaking news" "Norv Turner may be fired!"???

LOL

6. I heard at least one Packer player

Say he will play extra hard for Kerry! As a vike fan too, I can not help myself root'n with the Cheese heads.

8. c'mon, snap out of it

This is so silly I can't believe I am wasting bandwidth to respond. If you search hard enough, you can always find something that "has always predcited the results of the elction." Given almost countless events to consider and a comparatively tiny number of presidential elections, it is an absolute certainty that you will find hundreds of such "predictors" that were "always right".

[AntiCoup2K4]

GO PACKERS!

Does this mean I gotta buy one of those damn cheese hat things, just for one week?

[RevCheesehead]

10. Some of us have ALWAYS rooted for the Pack!

But this Sunday, it's DESTINY!
