Skins vs Saints predictions

eh?

You won with the New Orleans game, I won with the Atlanta game, and the rest of the games I didn't pick against the Skins. So we were 1-1. I never said I was taking the Skins opponent every week.

So what am I missing?

Tell you what, you can go and bet on the Skins to win every week, and I'll bet based on reality, and we'll see who the "looser" is at the end of the season. :biggthump

This is the bet we made FD.

Reality didn't mean I was picking against the Skins each week. It meant I would pick based on who I thought would win rather than making a homer pick.

I'm with Matty. He never said he would pick against the Skins every game. He said that he would put his fandom aside and pick the team he thought would win, whether it was the Skins or not.

You can't change the bet in the middle of it.

/facepalm




FD, I'm shocked you haven't ended up a Darwin award winner in all these years.

A simple misunderstanding. No beef here.

mredskins, this thread needs your guidance...

mredskins, this thread needs your guidance...

I have guided enough today. I honestly was always a bit confused about the bet. I think FD and Matty should donate to FD's charity where they help kids get hearing aids. Seems like a great cause.

After much review.....I believe it is FD's contention that MK owes.....32k and some change to FD's favorite charity purported to be a house for wayward young women, hookers and such........

This is the bet we made FD.

That was not the bet here are the post in order.

Why be a fan if you don't believe your team can win a game? Even in our worse years I have never picked my team to loose.

Matty: Post #66

Oh I believe they can win, but weighing all the factors I just don't think they will.
I know it's tough for you righties to separate reality from fantasy at times. ;)

Well actually your own statement said "I believe they can win" as a righty we can seperate reality its just we take the postive thinking over the negative looser thinking. http://www.thewarpath.net/images/icons/icon10.gif

Ok, I'll bet you $5 a game (I have the skins each game) to be donated to the other persons choice of charity.

Matty: post #78

tempting, but I gave up betting years ago

Me: post #81

Not a bet its a donation to a charity. Worse case its a $10 or $15 donation.

Matty: post #88

ok let's do it

Again, me betting on reality meant each week I'd pick based on who I thought was going to win, rather than who I wanted to win (Redskins, obviously).

I didn't sign up to bet against the Skins every week.

Sorry you misunderstood.
