vocabulary lesson

The other day I was talking to Travis and trying to explain what "unpredictable" meant. So I told him what it meant when something was "predictable". I illustrated the concept by saying "Say you're watching a Colts game. The Colts are pretty predictable.... you can be pretty sure that they're going to win. Now, say you're watching a Notre Dame game. They are unpredictable -- you never know if they're going to win or not." He responded "unless they're playing the Colts! Then you know they're going to lose because the Colts always win!" I think he gets it.
