i'm not a sports fan. but there's a football game being played today that has forecast the winner of the presidential election -- correctly -- for the past seventeen years.

so if the pattern holds, then it goes like this. today there is a football game between the washington redskins and the green bay packers.

if the redskins win the game, bush wins the presidency.

if the packers win the game, kerry wins the presidency.

we will see if it makes it to year eighteen for correct predictions. the packers are picked to win by two points.
