History and Football

So here's how reading history can help you guess the outcome of a pro football game: Matt and the boys were talking a few days ago about the Monday Night Football game and trying to guess who might win -- the New Orleans Saints or the Minnesota Vikings. Calvin's guess -- the Vikings. And his reasons? "Well, I read that Vikings long ago liked to attack monks to steal their books, and monks are close to Saints, so I think the Vikings will win." It turned out, he was right. One of the uses of history that I never would have guessed.
