Irrationality commonplace in Journal's Super Bowl picks
he week before the rematch of the New England Pa-
triots against the New York Giants in Super Bowl
XLVI, I gathered picks from my co-workers to see
who will win the big game.
The Patriots were heavily favored here at the Shelton-
Mason County Journal, but not always for the reasons
everyone would expect.
There are the football fans, such as! Adam Rudnick, our
copy editor, who chose the Patriots based on the fact that
he thinks they'll be out for revenge. In Super Bowl XLII,
the Giants defeated the Patriots 17-14 on Feb. 3, 2008, at
the University of Phoenix in Glendale, Ariz.
Then there's Journal reporter Natalie Johnson, who
flipflopped with her choice for a few minutes. Johnson first
picked the Giants because she liked the mascot better.
After seeing photos of Tom Brady and Eli Manning, she

• switched to the Patriots because Brady is
"hotter" than Manning. Finally, Johnson
settled on the Giants simply to provide a
difference of opinion in the newsroom.
The oddest choice for Super Bowl
champ came from Arla Shephard, our
Belfair Herald reporter. Her first choice
was the Patriots, also because Brady is
hotter than Manning, but then she re-
membered Brady's former relationship
with Bridget Moynahan, whom he broke
up with around the time she became
pregnant with his child. Based on the fact
that Shephard disagrees with how Brady conducts his per-
sonal life, she switched her choice to the Giants.
