Pete's Blog-Day 26,215. Brad and his Dad = Who's the best predictor?

Today is Monday, August 27, 2012. My stats for today: 10 minutes of yoga, 10 minutes of lifting weights and 50 minutes of walking = 2.7 miles for an August total of 51.4 miles. My weight was 162.4 pounds.

QUOTE from J.K. Galbraith:  "There are two kinds of predictors: Those who don't know, and those who don't know they don't know."

Who's the best predictor in regard to the Hawkeye football season? I emailed Brad my picks yesterday and he answered with his picks. So here they are:

                                 Brad's pick                 Dad's pick
Northern Illinois             W                               W
Iowa State                       W                                L
UNI                                 W                               W
Central Michigan            W                               W
Minnesota                       W                               W
Michigan State                L                                L
Penn State                       L                                W
Northwestern                  L                                W
Indiana                           W                               W
Purdue                            W                               W
Michigan                        L                                L
Nebraska                        W                               L
Bowl game                     L                                W

Brad's is predicting an 8-5 season                    Dad is predicting a 9-4 season.

HUMOR for today: Read the QUOTE above. Last year we both predicted a 9-3 season and we ended at 7-5. Which kind predictor are sonny boy and his Dad - the first kind or the second?
