No Wonder Nixon Liked the Redskins


Keith Olberman just put up some interesting numbers -- in the last 17 Presidential elections dating back to 1936, the winner of the Washington Redskins last home game before the elction has conincided with the Presidential election results. If the 'Skins win, the incumbent or the incumbent's party wins. If the 'Skins lose, well you get the picture. Sunday at 1:00 PM, the Redskins take on the Packers and are 2 to 2.5 point underdogs. Olberman coyly noted that's within the margin of error. Well, a field goal anyway.

No word yet on whether Karl Rove has been informed, or whether John Kerry will be joining the squad that plays it's home games at Lambert Field.
