TOP 5 PREDICTIONS FOR 2015
 

Overview: It’s time for our annual tradition of making our best guesses as to what the coming year holds in store for all of us. In past years we have correctly foreseen the building of an Iraqi water park, the death of Patrick Swayze and Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton’s failure to be elected president (when everyone else was certain it was imminent).
 

Criteria: This is the one time of the year when our rankings don’t matter; we list each and every one of our predictions and track them all year. The actual top 5 are organized more for entertainment purposes than for our belief in the strength of each prediction. It’s wide open; from sports to celebrity deaths, politics to the shaky economy, anything and everything can be touched upon in our annual list of predictions.

Rob's Notes: 2014’s predictions were lackluster on my end. I need to make up for it with better prognosticating in 2015.
 

 

 

 

Rob's Top 5:

5.  The Oakland Raiders will have a better regular season record than the San Francisco 49ers (And, as a Niners fan, I will subsequently shoot myself as a result). 
 

4.  I will get in a fist fight (note; I cannot nor will not intentionally start such an altercation just to make this prediction accurate). I will also probably lose said fist fight. Badly.
 

3.  A drone will kill an American in America; Either via the first ever aerial targeted attack on U.S. soil or by a drone flying into a person and killing them.
 

2.  Celebrity Deaths in 2015: George HW Bush, David Boreanas, Bob Barker, David Letterman, and North west (Kimye’s little rat).
 

1.  An American will make an ISIS-like video of himself executing a police officer
 

Honorable Mentions: 


The average national gasoline price in America drops below $1.50 per gallon
 

A Fox News Reporter will be attacked on live television during a report
 

The Dow Jones Industrial Average will eclipse 20,000 points for the first time in history
 

Star Wars Episode 7 will break every known box office record
 

At some point during the calendar year of 2015, I will no longer be dating a girl in her 20’s.
