HORSESHOE HEAVEN?
This is the year. I just know it. I can feel it in my bones – this is the year that the Colts will finally get past the Patriots and reach the Super Bowl. And when they get there, they will give the Eagles a second consecutive Super Bowl loss. I’m guaranteeing it.
Pretty much.
Sorta.
I’m pretty sure.
I think.
Trust me.
But don’t bet on it.
Without further delay, here are The Wig’s 2005 Pigskin Prognostications. Enjoy.
