I predict that the Patriots will win.

Why? Because whenever a former NFL team wins, the stock market goes up for the year. And whenever a former AFL team wins, the stock market goes down for the year. It’s a pretty reliable rule.

I think the market will end the year down. There’s also the January rule, that says the market will end the year the same way it ended the first week in January. Not as reliable as the NFL/AFL rule, but almost as much.

So it figures that the Patriots have to win. Don’t give me any of this stuff about coaches and quarterbacks. It’s just got to happen.

Amazingly enough, your method is essentially the same as was used to make the blade of Mann’s Global Warming Hockey Stick. ...Really.
