[Poiuyt]

[mark414]

1. thats my team!

[NMDemDist2]

2. woohoo!! this is the only "poll" i'm watching this weekend n/t

[feistydem]

4. Me too. I am totally invested in the Redskin/Packer Poll today!

[Lefty48197]

3. Zogby predicted a Packer victory 53%-47%.

.

[madmax]

6. Wooo hoooo c'mon Packer's

C'mon Zogby don't fail me now, baby. :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:


:kick:

[klook]

7. There will be 6 overtimes

and after one team finally wins, there will be countless instant replay decisions, appeals to the league office, etc. The final outcome of the game won't be known until March 2005.

[Poiuyt]

8. Don't say that!!

LOL!

[MADem]

18. How brutally humorous, in a sick way! n/t

[indigobusiness]

5. I thought it was the reverse...

Whew! That's relief. Thanks.

[jefferson_dem]

9. Pakers up 20-7 now, in the 3rd quarter!

Go Pack!

[helpisontheway]

14. Thanks! That's a really good graphic too!

It actually shows the plays as they are happening.

[rndmprsn]

12. GO PACKERS!

[madmax]

15. If the Packers win I'll become a fan and I hate football.

:evilgrin: :bounce:

:kick:

[The Great Escape]

13. It Would Help If They Would Quit Giving Up 4th and 20 Plus Yards...

a la the NFC Playoff Game against the Iggles last year.

[THUNDER HANDS]

16. Redskins go ahead 20-17 with 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter

unfortunately, the Supreme Court stepped in stopped the game, claiming equal protection statutes and awarded the win to Washington. ;)

[H3Dakota]

17. Wah...

I'm stuck with keeping up with the game online today. I'm in FL & they are showing the gosh-darned VIKINGS game on TV here...

:grr:

(Nothing worse for us full-time Cheeseheads...) LOL

[Qanisqineq]

19. but you should be happy

my Vikings are losing miserably. I finally had to leave the room.

[H3Dakota]

26. The TV is in the other room...

So I'm just hearing it, but not paying much attention. I didn't realize they were losing by that much.

[DianeG5385]

20. Huzzah! Brilliant!

You know, (I watched the Oxford debate on C-Span before watching a replay of the voye for change concert) last night. Now THAT was a debate. I think C-Span should add a weekly debate ( a REAL ONE) to their weekly schedule; It had my family who were over for a Halloween party so fascinated! We are hungry for honest debate!

[AndrewJacksonFaction]

21. Self Deleted

[Born_A_Truman]

22. Is it televised?

Go Packers! Go Kerry! Go-Away Bush!

:bounce:

[funky_bug]

[disgruntled_goat]

24. P A C K E R S

[Gunit_Sangh]

25. A local columnist ...

Imagine what a bipolar afternoon lies ahead for Republican Cheeseheads and Democratic Skins fans.

[54anickel]

27. Anyone check to see what the Freepers are saying yet? n/t

The Redskins are losing their last home game before the election 10-0 right now. Urban legend has it that if they win said game, the incumbent party keeps the White House, but if they lose the challenging party wins.

Uh oh.

;-) (in good humor...)

Make it 17-0. Farve is hammering those skinny Skins.

Legend has it that if the AL wins the World Series, the GOP wins the election.

So, assuming the Packers win, the two sports would be in conflict this year ...

I think so, but the toughest competitor in sports is not about to throw a game.

Now is 17-0 and who cares? Since Boston broke their curse all sport bets are off - in fact, sets up this coincidence to be broken, seems like a normal thing to happen in light of the Sox...I might be worried if it didn't happen - breaking the pattern and all, you know?

Stop reaching, this is all a bunch of BS. Whoever wins on Tuesday will win because they did more work than the other side and wanted it more. This omen crap is just that, omen crap.

Your smiley face says you know it's B.S. See: http://www.datanation.com/fallacies/posthoc.htm Now, let's get to work. Consider copying and emailing things like THIS to everyone else and asking them to do the same.

My 20-something son is at the Redskin's game today.

When he left early this morning for the nearly 4 hour drive, I said ....

"You're personally responsible for rooting the Redskins to victory ....President Bush is counting on you!"
