Things that come in threes...

With the death of Amy Winehouse people are again talking Celebrity Death Pools and Things That Happen In Threes.  So here are some things that I think will happen in threes…
A.   Professional Lockouts:
1.       Fact - The NFL – Thank got its over because I am ready for some football but my Denver Broncos may not be ready for a couple more years!
2.       Fact - The NBA – their collective-bargaining agreement expired June 30th
3.       Prediction - The NHL is next…
B.   Defendants Getting Off High Profile Criminal Cases:
1.       Fact - Casey Anthony – No one is sure what happened there except… throw enough at the wall and something is bound to stick!
2.       Prediction - Dr. Conrad Murray – Michael Jackson’s  personal physician now claims that the pop star ingested the fatal dose of propofol himself.  This “unique” defense was such a surprise to LA County prosecutors that they needed to delay the trial in order to prepare their case in light of this defense.  Is OJ Simpson a consultant for Dr. Murray???  Another miscarriage of justice in LA!
3.       Prediction - Former International Monetary Fund Chief, Dominique Strauss-Kahn – Nafissatou Diallo claimed to be attacked by Strauss-Kahn at the Sofitel Hotel but now prosecutors are waffling in light of concerns about Diallo's credibility ala Kobe Bryant; Ben Roethlisberger; the ENTIRE Duke Lacrosse Team. 
C.   Guys That Will Never Get Into Baseball’s Hall of Fame:
1.       Fact - Pete Rose – While hold 17 Major League records, Rose’s voluntarily agreed to be placed on a permanent  Hall of Fame ineligibility list.  No one is sure what happened there except… throw enough at the wall and something is bound to stick!
2.       Prediction - Mark McGuire.  Notwithstanding his impressive numbers, with only 19.8% of the vote last year, voters are sending a strong message to those players who have been connected to the performance enhancing drug controversy in baseball.
3.       Prediction - Roger Clemens.  Possibly, by statistics, the best pitcher who ever lived - 354 wins;.658 winning percentage; struck out nearly 4,700; 7 time Cy Young winner  who is called a multiple affair, drug user by an ESPN personality may have a real hard time getting enough votes for the Hall of Fame.
D.   Celebrity” Layouts in Girlie Magazines:
1.       Prediction - Casey Anthony.  She will become a publicity hound and she’ll want to “flaunt” herself which may move he up on the “Celebrity” Death Pool!
2.       Prediction - Danielle Staub – The Ex-New Jersey Housewife should really think twice about that and I am sure her children are soooo proud that momma sold her sex tape to Hustler.  Ugh and ill all in the same breath.
3.       Prediction - Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi – In the same category as Danielle Staub , the Jersey Shore member has watched her “rising star” falls booking appearances at wing joints and bars.  Maybe that would be the jolt her “career” needs.  Say it with me… ugh and ill!!!
E.   Celebrity Death Pool:
1.       Fact - Amy Winehouse
2.       Prediction - Zsa Zsa Gabor – A Celebrity Death Pool Favorite
3.       My Wild Card Prediction - Lindsay Lohan – Hopefully I’m wrong and she has stepped off the path to self-destruction.
