Kevin's Blog: Predictions
Call me Nathradomus. Today I take out my crystal ball and look into the future of sports. Just promise not to hold me to any of these predictions.
1) If Derek Jeter stays healthy he will someday break Pete Rose's record for career hits. Jeter is more than half way there and with hits in 63 of his last 66 games, is showing no signs of slowing down.
2) A-Rod will break Barry Bonds home run record in the next ten years. And then Albert Pujols may top A-Rod. As always, it is all dependent on staying healthy.
3) The Red Sox will win the World Series again in the next two years. With Papelbon closing, Beckett emerging as an ace (let us not forget his performance in the '03 World Series) and the middle of that order, I love the Sox chances.
4) The UConn Men will win one more National Championship before Jim Calhoun retires.
5) Maya Moore and Tina Charles will lead the UConn Women to at least one if not two titles in the next few years. National Titles!
6) Phil Mickelson will win the Traveler's Championship this June.
7) Tiger Woods will someday play in Cromwell. Just don't ask me to tell you when.
8) The UConn Football team will win more games than last season this fall (4-8 in '06). But they are still a year away from being a really good team.
9) Hartford will never get NHL hockey again.
10) I will never break 80 on a golf course, unless a 79 for 15 holes counts!
11) The Mets pitching will ultimately let the team and fans like me down in October.

I have to agree with you on the ARod HR chase. If he "only" averages 30 a year for 10... he's at 782. And that allows for a few more 40+ years & a few 20 spots during the tail-end of his career.
