Bill: Intellectual befuddlement over Broncos win: Re: your post: <<The Broncos, don't you know the market will crash if they win <g>.>> Common belief, Stock market goes up if NFL wins superbowl and down if they lose. NOT True. The facts are, the NFL usually wins, year after year. The stock market generally goes up, year after year. Consequently, stock market advances are correlated with NFL s-bowl wins, but there is no causal relationship whatsoever between these events. Parallel statistics, you wake up every day, you eat breakfast every day. You don't wake up, you don't eat breakfast. Could be causal - You're dead, and not hungry, but not valid logic. Look at other side: So one day you get up and don't eat breakfast. (ie: Broncos win) Does that mean you're dead? Sorry, no causal relation between wins of NFL and stockmarket, plain and simple.
