Worst Prediction Ever Made on these Boards

My nominees:


1. From 2009-Jimmy Fallon will be off the air by Memorial Day.
2. From 2011-Cam Newton will be a 3rd round draft pick-poster compared him to JaMarcus Russell.

I am not showing the names of the posters in order to protect the guilty.

    About Tim Tebow: "Seriously, some of you who have doubts as to what he brings to the team, just watch & you'll see."

    About Jeremy Lin: "Am I the only one that thinks he could be HUGE...like top 10, 15 player in the league?"
  • Was the Cam comment me?I honestly would have agreed in 2011. didn't think he had "IT".I have pleasantly surprised with his ability.Sometimes it is enjoyable to eat your own words.

    He did bring a lot to the team unfortunately none of it was the ability to play football.

    Mine was not on the boards but a co-worker in the late 90's. "Dude, invest all your money in beanie babies and you'll be a future millionare!" He spent all his savings, children's college funds and even got most of his Dad's retirement money and bought storage rooms full of hundreds of boxes of beanie babies over several months for future re-sell. In the end, he and his father took a $863K loss.

    While probably not the worst, I nominate this gem from CrissCriss as being amongst the worst:

    "Quite a "committee" there. This is going to end well, LOL! "

    Really?…let's not get ahead of ourselves. We all saw the beat up wax boxes you posed on the dining room wicker table in your apartment….not that impressive. The nicest piece you "claim" to have owned you just "happen" to have already sold it before snapping a photo. I think we'll all keep that prediction in tact.

    This really didn't work out as I hoped back in 2006 haha. In reference to Tony Romo leading the Cowboys back to the super bowl:

    I have only been around since 2012 but yeah I'd nominate all the doomsday about unopened based on this short period. But please keep this thread going. It's like a pbs historical documentary. Awesome stuff.
