What are your 2007 predictions?

[LaPlaceFF]

1. The Saints will win the Super Bowl, however, the celebration will be short-lived as moving trucks will be seen at the Saints training facility leaving for Los Angeles.

2. The recovery effort continues in the Gulf region.

3. Kanye West and T.O. will moan and groan about things throughout the year.

As I think of more I will post

8. Cheney will shoot another friend.

I'm sorry, but that was funny.

Of course, he is running out of options.

Sorry, I'll be good now.

I love it that so many are getting VERY specific on their predictions. That's what makes it fun!

Good thing I didn't bet my life savings on predictions for last year!!

In 2007,

1. Hilary Clinton will bow out of the 2008 race
2. Barak Obama will continue to be the rock star of the Democratic party, but as the year progresses an event or two will make him more tentative about his commitment to the Presidential race.
3. Lake effect snows will be brutal early in the new year, especially from Erie to Buffalo.
4. A significant power grid outage will occur in a major metropolitan area causing renewed concerns about the vulnerability of our power security.
5. Another tsunami will strike as the result of a major quake in the Indian Ocean. It will kill scores, not hundreds of thousands.
6. The San Diego Chargers will win the Super Bowl, and one of the best commercials will feature an over-the-hill television or movie celebrity.
7. Education in this country will get new attention as a result of pre-election dialogue and campaign trailblazers.
8. Bitterness and pain will surround the political discussions on Iraq, but there will be significant troop withdrawals during the second half of 2007.
9. We'll lose a popular talk show host to an accident or illness, but a rising new personality will also get lots of attention.
10. Fans of American Idol will select someone from west of the Mississippi as the winner this year.

[GalvestonDuck]

So, does this mean everyone who predicted Saddam would hang is wrong, since it happened in '06, not '07?

1. The top Oscar winners will prove to be the most diverse group yet.
2. Someone in the Brangelina family will experience some sort of medical problem.
3. Heather Locklear will split from her relationship with David Spade.
4. Sasha Baron Cohen will make another ridiculous movie with another ridiculous character.
5. A couple of tropical storms and a minor hurricane will make landfall on the Gulf Coast after August, but the major strikes will be on North Carolina and Mexico.
6. The Midwest winter will continue to be rough into February, long after the Denver holiday shutdown.
7. Major news will break in Afghanistan.
8. Queen Elizabeth will have either a health or an assasination scare.
9. A prominent Hollywood actor will die in a tragic accident.
10. The Saints will go to the Super Bowl.
11. The Florida Gators will win the National Championship in college football.
12. The Kentucky Wildcats will make it to the Final Four in the NCAA tournament.
13. There will be another freaky serial killer discovered -- this one in Virginia.
14. Rosie will leave "The View."
15. NBC will climb back into the number one network spot for a short time.
16. UTMB and Galveston will be featured prominently in the news during hurricane preparation season. (Okay, so I'm cheating on that one. )

[Stephanie]

Okay, I'll give it a try. I'm borrowing a few from above because I think that they will happen as well.

1. Fidel Castro dies.
2. The Trump/O'Donnell continues for alittle while but no lawsuit will happen.
3. Philadelphia Eagles will be the NFC champs and will go to the Super Bowl.
4. A plan will be agreed upon to bring our troops home by 2008.
5. Congress - both the House and Senate will work together and pass health care and other important domestic bills.
6. Barack Obama will announce his bid for the Presidency.
7. Late winter will bring a large coastal storm for the East Coast.
8. Jennifer Hudson will win a Golden Globe for her stint as "Effie" in "Dreamgirls". Beyounce' won't win an Oscar but Eddie Murphy will.
9. A rematch will be held between Emmitt Smith and Mario Lopez for "Dancing with the Stars".
9. Terrrell Owens will not be back with the Cowboys next year. He will be picked up by another team.
10. Another well known and beloved R&B singer will die.
11. Multiple hurricanes will hit the US this year. One will hit the East Coast between the Carolinas and New England. No landfalling hurricane will be stronger than a Category 3.

More later as I think about it.

[cycloneye]

I see that there is almost a consensus that Castro will die in 2007,but will he die as every year at this time the predictions are the same and he still is alive?

[Stephanie]

Because he is ill and his brother seems to be taking over more control of Cuba, I think that 2007 maybe the year.

[Brent]

Yeah, I agree. We haven't heard much from him either(and what we do hear about his sickness doesn't sound good for survival, considering his age), and the only pictures we saw of him since he fell ill back in October he looked frail in.

[Opal storm]

Well after reading all these predictions from you guys,this latest poll is definitely right!

Well after reading all these predictions from you guys,this latest poll is definitely right!

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20061231/ap_ ... ns_ap_poll

Six in 10 people think the U.S. will be the victim of a terrorist attack. An identical percentage thinks it likely that a biological or nuclear weapon will be unleashed somewhere else in the world.

Seventy percent of people in the U.S. predict a major natural disaster in the country and an equal percentage expects worsening global warming.

35 percent predict the military draft will be reinstated.

25 percent anticipate the second coming of Jesus Christ.

[HurricaneHunter914]

I hope the military draft isn't reinstated, it's forcing someone against their will and I don't like that. As for Jesus' coming, he is kinda long over due, I mean we have been waiting for 2,000 yrs.

[Bobbie Lee]

25 percent anticipate the second coming of Jesus Christ.

I could go for that.

1) Durham County District Attorney Mike Nifong will be disbarred for his role in the Duke Lacrosse rape case.
2) Coastal North Carolina will get hit with a Cat 3, and just 100 miles inland, Raleigh won't take notice of it.
3) Mount St. Helens will BLOW!
4) Hollyweird will pump out a record number of insidious films.
5) Saddam who?
6) Fidel who?
7) Philaldephia Eagles win Superbowl!
8) Broadcast TV will continue it's slide further into the sewer.
9) My job description will change.
10) My house will be a little more organized than it is now. Just a little.

[Opal storm]

T.O goes the entire regular season with zero dropped passes!

[f5]

i predict Jim Cantore will pull hurricanes where he is stationed scary thought
i also predict storm2k will outdo TWC as far as hurricane coverage go

[conestogo_flood]

My prediction is a little late, but I took the last few weeks to think about them. All predictions start after February 1st.

1. The human race will observe a day of shock, followed by global panic.
2. Mudslides and landslides will cripple southeast Asia, especially Sri
Lanka
3. Tornadoes of strength not seen in years will devastate major cities
in Canada and Europe raising concern for weather awareness.
4. 2007 will be a year of many strong earthquakes
5. There will be a month of great fire throughout North America
6. A surprise move on Canadian soil, changing history books
7. The sun will turn black as night
8. An unexpected epidemic will emerge by late 2007 mutating in with the
bird flu
9. Lakes will boil
10. Mount Yellowstone

[GalvestonDuck]

.
9. A prominent Hollywood actor will die in a tragic accident.

Anna Nicole Smith is in the news now and they were reporting that paramedics were doing CPR on her.

She is an actor. But I'm not sure if something accidental happened...and, thankfully, she's not dead yet. So, I'm hoping she isn't the one to make this prediction come true.
