    Post your predictions for what will happen in the sports world in 2010! You don't have to answer all of these, and you're not restricted to these questions, but just for thought-

    Who will win:
    the BCS championship?
    the Super Bowl?
    March Madness?
    the Masters, or any of the golf majors?
    the NBA championship?
    the NHL championship?
    Tennis majors?
    the World Series?

    What coaches will be fired? What coaches will move? Which NBA players will change teams, and where will they go? What will be the biggest trade at the MLB trading deadline? What will be the big upset in college football next season? How will your favorite teams do?

    Who will win:

    the BCS championship?: Alabama
    the Super Bowl?: New Orleans
    March Madness?: Kansas
    the Masters, or any of the golf majors?: Phil Mickelson
    the NBA championship?: L.A. Lakers!
    the NHL championship?: Pittsburgh
    Tennis majors?: Somebody really good.
    the World Series?: New York Yankees


    What coaches will be fired?: Vinny Del Negro from the Bulls, whoever is currently coaching the Kansas City Royals, Eric Mangini from the Cleveland Browns
    What coaches will move?: Larry Brown!
    Which NBA players will change teams, and where will they go?: LeBron goes to either New York or the L.A. Clippers in the offseason, and Sasha Vujacic gets traded to Memphis before the trading deadline of this current season.
    What will be the biggest trade at the MLB trading deadline?: Adrian Gonzalez & Barry Zito.
    What will be the big upset in college football next season?: UCLA will finish with a better record than USC.
    How will your favorite teams do?: In a testy/not easy playoff run, I believe the Lakers will repeat as champs in June. As for the Dodgers, I see them making the playoffs, but depending on their pitching, they either get bounced in the NLDS or win the pennant, and then lose the World Series.


    2008-2009 L.A. Lakers: World Champions! :cool:

    With their first pick in the 2010 NFL Draft the Oakland Raid....I mean Al Davis selects:

    JaDarren McRussell Heyward-Bust out of Who Cares University!!

    Analysis: This kid has never played football, or any other sport, but he runs a 4.2 40, and looks like a football player.

    Most NFL teams have him as an un-drafted free agent, for the UFL.


    :mad: :_|

    How will my favorite teams do?

    SF Giants: Wild Card berth, use only Lincecum and Cain in the playoffs and get swept in the World Series by the Orioles.
    GS Warriors: finish '09-'10 season at 10-72. Monta Ellis plays every remaining minute of the season, averages 43 PPG (Warriors average 45 as a team), wins MVP.
    SJ Sharks: finish regular season at 72-10. Swept in first round of playoffs by whoever.
    Cal Football: Start season by winning 8 games in a row, then lose next 5, including Emerald Bowl. Tedford receives contract extension for being mediocre. Kevin Riley throws 30 TD. And 40 INT. After season conclusion Cal is awarded an extra victory as U$C imposes sanctions on itself for paying every player on the team for the past 10 years.
    Cal Basketball: All the way. I'm calling it now.
    SF 49ers: Draft Colt McCoy in the first round, and snag Jahvid Best in the second. McCoy starts and leads them to 8-8. Again. Mike Singletary loses his pants four times. Vernon Davis gets banished to the showers for running post patterns every play. Frank Gore suffers torn ACL, replaced by Coffee/Best, who combine for 15 YPG. Andy Lee records better punting numbers than Shane Lechler.
