Update on my 2008 Predictions

October 21, 2008

Updates in bold

Ozzy kicks the bucket.
- Not yet.

Scientologist remove Cruise from the #1 position.
- Cruise has been quiet lately. I think it’s safe to say he’s no longer the face of Scientology.

We’ll be calling President “McCain”.
- We’ll see it’s 50/50 but when I predicted this McCain was one of many.

Jack Bauer will finally die making 24 good again.
- The writers strike killed the last season of 24. So do I get credit? Probably not, still Jack should die to make the show better.

Lacy Peterson’s body won’t be found.
- the Peterson story was still hot when I predicted this. And the body is still missing.

Britney Spears tries to kill herself.
- Oh I was close. She sure tried to kill her career.

By 4th Q the stock market will be in the low 10,000’s
- BINGO!

Minnesota will acquire Berrian & Derek Anderson and look to be the NFC fav.
- I was right about Berrian wrong about Anderson and wrong about being the class of the NFC. Man the Vikings need a QB badly.

White Sox & Bulls both make whole sale trades to rebuild.
- WRONG, wow were both teams looking horrible on paper this spring. Who knew the Bulls would win the NBA draft lottery something like a 1% chance to do so. Bulls end up with the #1 draft pick and enter Derrick Rose. The Sox on the other hand made the playoffs. Props to Kenny Williams for putting together a better team then everyone thought. I still don’t understand why the Sox are built around power when Ozzie is a small ball manager.

Doctor Phil will no longer be address as “Doctor” by the end of the year.
- Book it, Phil will be “Phil” by the end of the year :razz:

Lindsey Lohan poses in Playboy.
- Ding ding ding, ok she didn’t pose in Playboy but she did pose nude in New Yorker or something like that. Too bad young Hollywood always ends up messed up. Look out Lindsey, Hannah Montana is right behind ya.

Rod Blagojevich is assassinated.
- Not yet?

The first 1,000 yard receiver (since 2002) will be Devin Hester (and people will still complain that he should only be doing special teams).
- Hester has been slowed by torn rib cartilage and now a hamie. He’s still on track for 500 yards 4 TDs but I think he would have still made 1,000 yards had be been healthy. Especially with how good Orton has been this season.

Next years Superbowl performer will finally be ACDC
- Dang, it’s Tom Petty.

… finally
There will be one more attack on America traced back to a Muslim group and for the first time there will be vigilante attacks on various Muslim establishments.
- Looks like I’m wrong. The wars seem to be winding down and the economy has become the focus of the nation.
