Forget Gallup, Rasmussen, etc. To find out who's going to win this election.....

WATCH TOMMOROW NIGHT'S GAME between the Redskins and the Steelers.

For 17 of the last 18 elections, in which the Washington Redskins played a home game that prior weekend, the outcome has predicted the winner of the election.*

The formula is simple.

1) Look at the party of the current president (The 'Skins side with that guy).

2) Watch the Redskins game.

3) If the Redskins win, the candidiate who shares the SAME party as the current president WINS; if the 'Skins lose, the candidate of the party OPPOSITE that of the current president wins.

In laymen's terms, Bush is a Republican. If the 'Skins win, McCain is the new president; If the Steelers win, Obama gets the nod.

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!? 

*- The lone exception was 2004; The 'Skins lost to the Packers. But, George Bush got re-elected.

   Saw this on NFL Countdown this morning.  The only thing I care about in that game is whether Santana Moss overcomes his hammy and has a great game.  He starts on my fantasy football team.

A lot of schools in the Virginia/Maryland area are off on Monday and Tuesday.

Monday for Teachers Professional Day (training) and Tuesday for election day. Think of it as a 4 day weekend for school kids and the parents (like me) that have to stay home to watch their wee ones.

Politics aside, no fucking way. Their offensive line is butt woeful. It's going to be a sackfest for the Redskins and I say that with a grimace on my face since I'm a Cowboys fan (who absolutely suck ass this season).

This might be the ONLY time I might EVER root for the Foreskins, I mean Redskins.

that's fine, but that's not the weekend.  I'm just going by what it said.  Monday is not the weekend.

It is as far as football is concerned.

I think that stat popped up last week, too. Plus, I remember this from a few years ago.

"Hail to the Chief", based on "Hail to the Redskins"! And, both McCain and Obama will appear at halftime for Monday Night Football. I wonder if McCain and Obama will have on Redskins and Steelers gear, respectively?

Looks like an Obama W.

LOL. Dude, you didn't own me on shit. You honestly think the majority of NFL fans picked the Steelers to win?

That said, as a Cowboys fan, I'm HAPPY the Foreskins lost so HA!

Yes it does.

The football gods have spoken.
