This isn't a blog either, but I thought I'd drop it off anyway.
Found on snopes.com and had a good chuckle. Confirmed true, by the way (however coincidental it is).
FOOTBALL + ELECTION
Did you know....??
The Washington Redskins have proved to be a time-tested election predictor. In the previous 15 elections, if the Washington Redskins have lost their last home game prior to the election, the incumbent party has lost the White House. When they have won, the incumbent has stayed in power.
This election year, that deciding game takes place on Sunday, October 31 ... vs. Green Bay.
Go Pack!!!

You can put your (virtual) money on Green Bay in the Spring's sports pool. See topic 71 in sports.
This week the Packers are 3.5 favorites over the Cowboys.
Next weeks odds will be out in 7 days. I'll post those odds here. There's a pretty good list of political blogs at http://bush2004.bloki.com, btw.

http://bush2004.bloki.com/blog it should have been. It's not this weeks game but next weeks. That's getting pretty close to election day.
It must be a tradition to schedule this game right before the election?
