Your Worst Sports Predictions?

"Why are we even playing the season?"

 

[MisterCreosote]

And LeBron would have been a better player had he gone to college. Devil 93

And, on the flip side, I swore up and down that Evan Turner was going to be better than John Wall because "he stayed in college all four years!"

 

[Baron Scicluna]

I thought the Mets would win a World Series after signing Bobby Bonilla.

Hey, it can still happen!

 

[JC]

I'll let you guys know.

 

[Splendid Splinter]

I thought JaMarcus Russell was going to be a superstar.

 

[BitterYoungMatador2]

I wrote that Saban wouldn't have more success at Bama than he had at LSU. Oops.

I said out loud to another human being once that I thought Alabama was going to one day regret not giving Sly Croom a chance.

 

[Captain_Kirk]

Somewhere there is an NBA draft thread where I wondered if Luka Doncic might end up having a similar career to Darko Milicic. Oof.

 

[da man]

That German kid is just the latest in the Mavericks' long line of big white stiffs.

My Dad, in the seventh inning/late third quarter of more than a few games he took me to as a kid: "this one's over, let's beat the traffic." I remember watching the Falcons' Hail Mary to beat the hated Niners in 1983 from my couch, after we had been at the game.

 

[goalmouth]

That "Million Dollar Arm" would be a hit and John Hamm was the next George Clooney.

 

[garrow]

I thought Ryan Leaf would be a solid pro.

 

[qtlaw]

I thought the Tribe was going all the way, even bought a starter jacket (wife made me throw it away 25 yrs ago), Cory Snyder for MVP!!:
