Sunday's game pits city against city in a battle for gridiron supremacy. Forget the stats. They all fly out the window with opening kickoff and become even more useless after a rousing halftime speech by one of two Harbaugh's.
No, my friends, the MUSIC will decide the outcome.
Here's the simple formula: If you take all the musical acts that are closely associated with each city, and I don't necessarily mean BORN there, I mean, when you think of a band or artist, what city comes to mind?
The outcome is foretold in the grid below. That outcome is: San Francisco 68, Baltimore 9. It's a mortal lock.
So, look out Vegas, here I come. Give me Frisco and 59.
