So, the Super Bowl is Sunday, and I haven't seen a thread, yet. For various reasons, I watched my first whole game in about 2 years 2 weeks ago, and don't plan on watching this game, not even for the commercials.
However, most of the time, if an original NFL team wins, the market goes up, and if the AFL team wins, it goes down. Also, January is a good predictor of the rest of the year. However, last year was an outlier.
The market was up until the Super Bowl, so the prediction was the Patriots would lose, but they won, and the market sank the rest of the year.
I'm making the same prediction for this year's game. The Patriots are beatable; except for a blatant non-call, and a non-foul call, as well as a good penalty call, the Chiefs would have won the AFC game. Of course, the Rams won because of a non-call on a blatant pass interference penalty at the end of the game. And the guy who made the hit got fined later for an illegal hit! Turns out the entire crew for that game was from So. CA. What a coincidence!
