Fox News Special Report 2006 Predictions Update #1

Here we go…

Congratulations to Fred Barnes, the early leader in Hermann the Malevolent’s “Fox News Special Report 2006 Predictions” competition.

Since our three contestants don’t all have the same number of predictions, we’ll be awarding the trophy to the competitor with the highest winning percentage at year’s end. While that may sound like it puts unfair pressure on those with larger amounts of predictions to nail, I couldn’t care less. This is my game, and it sounds fair and balanced enough to me. Good luck to all the contestants.

First up - Fred Barnes’ prediction #11. Let’s review:

“11. University of Texas wins Rose Bowl.”

Good call, Fred. A dramatic touchdown by the Longhorns with less than a minute to go in the game secured not only the national title for Texas, but also the early lead for Fred Barnes.
