(Whoops, this one should have been posted
2 weeks ago. Sorry about that. It may be too late to pull off now,
but you're good to go for next year....)
There exist some dumb little indicators that
don't make much sense but turn out to be shockingly accurate anyway,
such as my advice
on how to pick the Rose Bowl winner (the team with the best
looking cheerleaders usually wins). This also falls under that
category. They don't make much sense, but they work and have
worked every time I've used them. Just keep in mind nothing is 100%--
they're bound to fail once in a while.
This one is even more esoteric and (depending
on where you're at-- and, at this time, what language you speak)
harder to get the info. There's only one step to this: find out which
team sports
anchor Claudia Trejos thinks will win the Super
Bowl. She's always wrong. Pick the opposite team.
And for you over/under types (though perhaps
not quite as accurate): If she thinks the game will be close it will
probably be a blow out; if she predicts a blow out anticipate a tight
contest.
I love Claudia, but-- God bless her-- she
can't pick the Super Bowl for crap.
By the way, if you actually know
Claudia don't tell her about this! She's libel to get self
conscious about it and queer up the whole deal. Keep your mouth shut
and don't ruin a good thing for the rest of us, okay?
Yours,
