NCAA football will end up with a splinter self made division consisting of the five power conferences. Those conferences will raid any decent mid major school and have 16-18 team conferences.(Boise, Nevada, Air Force, SMU, BYU, Hawaii, Houston, Army, Navy, Southern Miss, W. Kentucky, Arky St., Toledo, Tulsa, UCONN)
The Cowboys will win two superbowls within fifteen yrs. Bet on it. Romo won't be a part of either of them.
We will not see a cure for cancer, HIV/AIDS or anything terminal. There is more money in treatment than cure. I don't like it anymore than you do, but it's the truth. Science and tech have already existed that could and should have produced a cure.

We will see a Katrina-esque disaster, one way or another, in the next decade. I don't want it to happen, of course, but as someone earlier said I feel like we're due.
49ers, Ducks, Thunder, Dodgers. Those four teams will win the championship in their respective sports this coming season.
AIDS will be cured within ten years.
Some MJ-esque shocking celebrity death will occur within the next year.
(I hope this following one isn't skirting around this forum's political rules; if it is, i'll edit it out) Hillary Clinton will NOT win the Democratic nomination for President in 2016.

A major player in American politics will be assassinated and it'll be the jump start to a second Civil War.

Re animating preserved humans. Want my brain frozen and still attached to my body when I go. But don't have the money. Depresses me sometimes. I figure they can reanimate me at some point in the future.
Also, life expectancies of 125-150 years are going to happen. No question about that.

Within 15 years Oakland will unfortunately be left without a professional sports team as the A's move to Portland, San Antonio, or Sacramento. The Raiders move to LA and the Warriors move to San Francisco.
Cable Tv a la carte will be available either through a traditional method or via the internet.
Boxing will have a resurgence and MMA will start to dip in popularity.

within 5 years Guns n' Roses will release a new album
within the next 10 years Axl Rose will retire completely and just disappear again and slowly put out new albums every 3 or 4 years but with no promotion from him at all.
within the next 10 years the Chicago Cubs will win the world series and constantly be in the playoffs year after year
within the next 15 years Gene Simmons will retire along with Paul Stanley, I see them carrying on KISS via stage show only with like the best guys from all the various tribute acts to perform as KISS in major cities like Vegas, LA, Chicago, New York, also after retirement Gene will finally charge people to visit the airline hangers he has all the old KISS stages in so fans can walk on the Love Gun tour stage and the like.....for a very hefty fee btw...

They'll wreck the Internet somehow and it'll splinter off into other things. The Internet is set to kill everything because it's too easy. It took down music, TV and movies are next and then we're gonna start to see some changes. It really probably is our greatest achievement at this point, I carry around a small little computer with access to pretty much the entire knowledge of mankind (AND PORN!) right next to my testicles. There's more money in the Internet than is being taken right now and someone's gonna squeeze every cent out of it until it no way resembles what we've got now.
Sort of a tie in, physical media, DVDs, CDs will be dead in 5 years or so. They'll still be around, but they'll be special order, cost more and probably come exclusively from Amazon or an internet site like it.

Ok here is another one from me. The Detroit Lions WILL win a Super Bowl with Jim Caldwell as head coach. Yes they are my favorite team so there is bias there. But I've had such a great general feeling about him since he was hired. I didn't feel that with Jim Schwartz, I felt Schwartz would bring about a change to the culture, but wasn't gonna be the guy to get them over the hump.
Despite how many others feel, I think the Lions have finally found the right man, at the right time. Go ahead and call me crazy, it wouldn't be the first time. So when it finally happens, I'll have my own Super Bowl ring made... Although admittedly it will be something modest lol.

Traditional schools and teachers will fall by the wayside, replaced by online education programs that allow students to learn at their own pace.
Comic books will go the way of pulp magazines and penny dreadfuls, though the characters will live on in movies, TV series, video games.
Rock will never dominate the pop music scene the way it did in the '50s-'90s, instead becoming a stagnant niche genre like jazz, blues, and swing.
A handful of musical acts from the '90s will have significant comebacks before the end of this decade.
E-cigs will experience a surge in popularity, a massive backlash, a rapid decline, and a slow and steady comeback on their way to becoming ubiquitous.

The WWE will be out of business within 20 years. I'm not sure of the specifics, but I firmly believe that it's on borrowed time.

Those "dead music star holograms" will become the dominant touring/concert attractions within 20 years.

Shane not Triple H well probably end up owning WWE after Vince die. In 10 year, Microsoft probably won't be in the console race anymore, the next system after the xbox one well be their last. Another president is going to die in office in probably the next 20 years.

The Internet as we know it today and the freedom of information we all currently have at our fingertips will be gone outright at worst or heavily restricted at best. I believe the Internet in it's current form is seen as too much of a threat in the eyes of many powerful people.
Within the next 10 years Nintendo will be done making home consoles but they'll continue making games for the other companies like Sega does today. So look forward to seeing Mario and Zelda on Sony and Microsoft machines some day.
Detox by Dr. Dre will be released within the next 3 years!
Hollywood will be rocked by the Murder Suicide of a famous couple at some point within the next decade.
A sex tape of a star who is seen as A List at the time will be released within the next 5 years, it will probably become the most famous sex tape in history.
The Simpsons will end within the next 5 years.

The NFL will within 20 years be the 3rd or 4th most popular sport in America after so many rule changes that people start to drift away.
I do believe people will be able to live to regularly be 150 years old, and I think the advancement will happen in my life time, but the benefits will not be seen until long after I'm dead.

Within the next ten years, all textbooks will be eliminated in schools as all they'll need is a tablet. Digital textbooks can be updated yearly and cheaper and those lucky punks won't feel my backpain.

1 - Cinemas will be a thing of the past or at least, exist in very small numbers. Instead, if you want to watch a newly released movie you can just pay to stream it on your home computer.
2 - We will have discovered bacterial life in space in the next 50 years. I think one of the probes they're sending up will come back with something.
3 - WW3 will happen. I think rather than a war between specific nations, it will be an enhancement of the War on Terror and will be very bad.
