sure thing

The way you feel is no sure thing to go on.

"Will you look in on her sometimes and make sure things are all right?"

I tried to sound as if it was a sure thing.

That does not mean the deal is anything close to a sure thing.

He was supposed to be a sure thing by now.

"And for a while it looked as if they had a sure thing."

I can't tell you the number of sure things that didn't make it.

I say seems because nothing is a sure thing when it comes to this guy.

But it wasn't going to be a sure thing, whatever we did.
