My spinning beer bottle ploy is like an old t-shirt I can't force myself to throw away. It may not be well regarded, but it feels comfortable. 

Its resurrection, from last fall, comes just in time for tonight's Ravens-Steelers game.

How it works: I spin bottles on a piece of cardboard that has equal portions of "us" and "them" landing spots. Where the mouth of the bottle rests ends up being the prediction.

This year, the cardboad spinning zone  is a 12-inch-by-12-inch sign that one of my sons "borrowed" from a pub. It reads "When in the mood for a Boh, Boh for it." The center of the board, the point where the bottle spins, is Mr. Boh's eyeball.

Representing the Steelers was a full bottle of Penn Pilsner, brewed in Pittsburgh, Pa.

Spinning for the  Ravens was a full bottle of National Bohemian, a beer that used to be brewed here.

The results: The Penn Pilsner predicted a win for "them," which I take to mean the Ravens.

The Boh predicted a win for "Us,"  the Ravens.

The record of the spinning beer bottles has been about as bad as economists' predictions for the stock market. But I can't stop spinning...

Any other predictions for the game, or suggestions of what to sip as you watch football?
