I paid to work for a few years there... does that count?

He'd be pretty dumb to take that without odds... but what a payout if he was right!

That's so crazy, it just might make sense.

Native American Basketball team (Arizona) 1909... I think I've seen that symbol before?

Wow. What a story. Hope you have a safe trip home bones!

I hadn't heard that yet... but he did put a sticker over his jersey with his new name, and Carson Palmer ripped it off... Ocho then proceeded to injure his shoulder and conveniently missed the rest of the preseason... promising to be ready for the opener. This guy will be a Raider by October.

I think this might be the first big year for trades under the salary cap system. The GM's are more used to it... some of the older contracts are off the table, and teams are going to be more inclined to go through wholesale changes in order to retool, and get younger, less-expensive talent through the draft. I don't know what the Sens might do... it'll all depends on how they play up to the trade deadline... but I wouldn't be surprised if other teams got into the trade market quickly this year once play starts.

Happy B-day dude!

Hey Newfoundland!:

I could of said Obama was going to win when he made his first appearance on Oprah. It's been just under two years since then. The Republicans put up a chump candidate with an even chumpier VP... I don't even think the Diebold machines can save them from this outcome, nor do I think that they even want it. If I could vote in the states, it would be for Ron Paul... but Obama is the clear choice of the political machine down there... the debates seem so redundant at this point. And Palin just seems like a suicide play for the GOP.

So Chad Johnson legally changed his name to Chad Javon Ocho Cinco. Why am I not surprised.

Oh yeah, that too! When did he go t phoneix? and who did Florida get for him?

No, I'll go to Canadian Tire... try one on, and take a picture... fack, read the whole thread before you post n00b.

Oh fer christ sakes... $100 and a Jersey. FWIW... the Jersey thing is not a big deal. I'll fuckin put one on tomorrow if it makes you feel better.

You're all talk!!!

I'll up the ante. $1000. Oh, and for odds... I'd say the lines got to be close to 4-6 for the Sens... so if you want to go $800 (Sens win) to $1000 (Leafs win) on a straight up bet, we can do that. We should make this a little more private before we contiue. You want in on that?

It's like the Sloth just posted as Dimafleck!

Being vague is not a sign of strength!!! Good times to start the season. It's amazing the Leaves are leading already in post replies.

Too bad your first perspective was to belittle Ollie even though this had nothing to do with it. A pound short, and a day late my friend... now take your wares out of here... the deal is done.

Be my guest! You'll be better off when you do quit that! On. $100. Cause it makes sense. I'll be able to take me and a friend to a game in Ottawa, or you'll be able to go yourself in Toronto. And yeah, sorry, usually I wouldn't chew you out for not responding to ME right away... but for some reason it felt appropriate to do it to you. But that reason eludes me for some reason.

Hey Hal... anything? It's been like an hour!... or did your employers actually expect you to do something? Typical. Love you!

You just made my year.

Yeah, you got me... I'm not a violent guy... but I'm a man of my word, and it was really lame how you tried to lump some imaginary Ollie incident in to suggest that I wouldn't pay up my bet if I lost... all the while the terms were changing faster than my government alloted 'free time on the internet' would allow... oh shit! I don't work for the government, and I'm not actually working right now... Now get back to work and stop wasting my tax money...

What Hal?! No more 'smart' comments?! Is the bet on?... and yeah, I should slap Booche in the face for suggesting I don't pay up bets... keep your head up tiger, or you'll be enjoying the 100th season through a straw!

Sorry, you have your facts wrong. I own no such item. Out of self-respect of course.
