IT'S ONLY FAVRE... BUSH WILL STILL WIN

I'm sure you've heard this:

Since the Redskins became the Redskins in 1933, the result of the team's final home game before the presidential election has correctly predicted the White House winner. If the Redskins win, the incumbent party wins. If they lose, the incumbent party is ousted.

You're also probably aware that today the Packers handed the Redskins their asses in a 28-14 thrash-fest.

So Bush is doomed, right?

Not necessarily, because Favre was playing. Things get... odd... when Favre gets involved.

Until Favre, no one had ever won 3 MVP's.

Until Favre, no quarterback has ever had 197 consecutive starts.

Until Favre, no quarterback has ever had 12 consecutive 3,000-yard passing seasons.

Until Favre, no quarterback has ever had 7 30-touchdown-pass seasons.

Until Favre, the Packers had never lost a playoff game in Lambeau.

Until Favre, the Packers had never lost a Superbowl.

I don't care HOW old the Redskins streak is. When #4 is involved, all bets are off.

1 Also, there is the Red Sox phenomenon to consider. The Red Sox have not WON the world series in 86 years. Professional Football was not even a glimer then. The last time the Sox won was 1918, not a presidential election year, but a Republican won in the next election by a landslide. Just something to ponder.

2 "Fire and brimstone falling from the sky, dogs and cats living together: MASS HYSTERIA!" Heheh, if Bush loses I'm still blaming the Packers, and as I stated on my blog they should be forced to change the stadium name to Lambert Field.
