For Kerry To Win, Redskins MUST Fall To Green Bay

[demwing]

On Sunday, October 31st, the Washington Redskins play their final home game leading into the November 2nd election. Their opponents? The Green Bay Packers.

And on that Sunday, if we know whats good for us, all of DU will become Green Bay Cheeseheads.



"...if you believe in certain superstitions, the most telling indicator might actually come by watching the Washington Redskins and Green Bay Packers on Sunday afternoon."

"Over the past 17 presidential elections, the outcome of Redskins football games has correctly predicted the winner every time. If Washington has lost its final home game leading into the election, the incumbent party has lost the White House. If the Redskins won, the incumbent party has stayed in power."

6. Yes, but Bush is leading in Halloween mask sales...

...and according to these same statistics, whoever is leading in Halloween mask sales becomes president.

After the fall of the Curse of the Bambino, it wouldn't be wise to trust any of these magical conventions.

9. Tell you what, I'll compromise

You ignore it now, and I'll cheer for Green Bay.

If the Redskins win, then I'll ignore it. I can do that. I'm not emotionally tied to this. This way, we both get to have some fun.

Deal?

14. that statement reminds me of a star trek episode

City on the edge of forever
in witch a social worker and peacemaker named Edith Keeler (played by joan collins). was saved by Dr Mccoy thus setting off the chain of events that let nazi germany get the A bomb first.
EDITH KEELER MUST DIE !!.
in the end she was killed in an accident and all was good
THE REDSKINS MUST LOSE
