A Goat picked us???

SaintPauly · 02-06-2010, 12:33 AM

My brother sent me a text today, saying there is some goat, somewhere, that has picked every winner for the superbowl, for the past six or seven years, and he picked us to win today. Anybody have a clue, what he's talking about? I thought he might be high or something.

everybody knows deep down that we are the better team but picking against peyton manning is just too hard for them

even a goat knows

common sense says that the saints are better...its only when people break down the playoff games and dont look anywhere else that they pick the colts

The only goat I know is the Adam Sandler skit...but I don't think he picked Super Bowl winners! And your suspicions could be correct regarding substance abuse....lol

A monkey picked us, too. It had a choice between two paper mache' footballs filled with treats, and it chose the one with the fleur-de-lis.

This is actually a TRUE Story! Old Baker Farm is an old cotton farm in Harpersville, AL. It is used mainly for school tours to teach young children about the history of "King Cotton" in Alabama.

On this farm is a goat that has acurately picked the last 9 Super Bowl Winners (including the Giants over the Patriots.) WJOX is a sports/talk radio station in Birmingham. On their morning show this week they had the Farmer and his Goat on the station (only in Alabama). The Goat picked the Saints to win Super Bowl 44. Don't know how he did it, I only know that he did. I am a Who Dat transplanted in the Birmingham area and this Goat has created quite a buzz around town. People think that this is funny, but I don't find it a coincidence that the line dropped a half point after the Goat made his pick!

LOL! Reminds me of a customer once when I worked at a convenience store. When he paid for his stuff, I asked him if he would like a bag. His reply was classic. "Nah, I got one at home."
