Football politics
Who needs analysts, degrees or intelligence when professional sports can predict the future?
Consider the Redskins Indicator, which holds that the Washington, D.C. football team's last home game before the U.S. presidential election is pivotal. A Redskins win means a victory for the incumbent party; a loss lands the challenger the White House.
According to ABC Sports, the indicator had a 15-0 success rate going into this election. Make that 16-0. The Redskins lost to the Tennessee Titans in the crucial home game before the election.
