    It's finally time that I get a chance to get rid of a very large part of my sig.

    USA vs. Mexico, Sat 6:25 pm in Columbus, OH on ESPN Classic (?).

    Here's some preview type stuff...

    My prediction is a reversal of the game earlier this year in Mexico City. I think the US will win 2-1. They are healthier now than they've been in months (Eddie Lewis, Eddie Johnson, and DMB are all back). Should be a good game.

    Winner qualifies. Tie and both qualify if Trinidad and Guatemala tie AND Panama wins or draws against Costa Rica. Either Mex or USA loses and they can still qualify with a Trinidad and Guatemala tie AND Panama wins against Costa Rica.

    Since you're still delinquent with your signature, what will be our bet this time you won't honor?

    Como sigues de delincuente con tu firma, ¿cuál va a ser nuestra apuesta que no vas a pagar?

    :mad:
    ;)

    Mexico win: I get to change your signature again
    DRAW: you keep your signature
    U.S. Win: you change your signature to whatever you want.
    You've already lost once. Double or nothing wouldn't hurt YOUR chances at all. Only a U.S. win can guarantee your removing your sig.
    Whaddayasay?

    Gana MEXICO: Cambio tu firma de nuevo
    EMPATE: te quedas con tu misma firma
    Gana EE.UU.: puedes cambiar tu firma a lo que quieras.
    Ya perdiste una vez. Doble o nada no te dañaría nada. Solo un gane de EE.UU. te garantiza cambiar tu firma.
    ¿Qué dices?

    Should be a great game! I like the U.S. and root for them in the World Cups but they're not my favorite team. Hopefully both team will qualify cause they both deserve it. I just wanna see a good game, none of that defensive struggle B.S. (just playing not to lose).

    Mexico without Pardo and Marquez = U.S blowout.

    Plus, Mexico hasn't won in the U.S. since 1999, I really don't think they have much of a chance.

    I have had this silly signature for nearly 6 months. I think I've kept up my end of the bargain.

    Here's the deal

    US wins...I erase the signature...you do what you want
    Tie...I erase the signature...you do what you want
    Mexico wins...I erase the signature...you do what you want

    You didn't keep your end of the bargain. Don't get me started on that. You were supposed to have ONLY what I told you.
    No cumpliste con tu palabra. No empieces con eso. Tenías que poner solo lo que te dije YO. :mad:

    So you're not in now... don't have confidence on your boys, huh??? Don't make me call you a chicken.
    Ahora no quieres apostar... ¿no tienes confianza en tus muchachos? No me hagas llamarte gallina.

    Meh, maybe. Maybe. I have confidence in my boys, 007, Brightside, leroy.
    I pick 2-2. 5:30 pregame 6:00 kickoff on Telemundo 47. Last time in Ohio, we didn't have enough support, as most Mexicans living there are working the jobs Americans won't take illegally and were scared to go to the game (a'la Fox ;) )

    Nel, tal vez. Tal vez. Tengo confianza en mis muchachos, 007, Brightside, leroy.
    Predicción: 2-2. 5:30 preparativos, 6:00 pm silbatazo inicial en Telemundo 47. En el último juego en Ohio, no tuvimos suficiente apoyo porque la mayoría de mexicanos allá trabajan donde los americanos no quieren ilegalmente y temen ir al juego. (Estilo Fox ;) )

    ¡¡¡¡VAMOS, MEXICO!!!!! :mad:

    leroy: if he considers what you have now to be a breach of your agreement, you might as well just go ahead and get rid of it, right? I mean, if you're apparently dishonoring the bet either way. Riiight.

    leroy: selv om han mener hvad du har nu at blive en overtrædelse i jeres aftalen, jer måtte ligeledes netop gå foran og komme af med sig, lige? Jeg nedrig, selv om du er angivelig den bud enten den ene eller den anden af måde. liiiiige.

    Wrong, here's your quote from the past thread.

    I don't see any mention of the word only.

    Oh, and it's got nothing to do with being chicken. I've got better things to do than to sit here and think up and actually take the time to type out retribution.

    Oh wait, you aren't willing to take on a new sig when the US wins. Your idea was that if the US won, I would simply get to remove the sig. What a bargain!

    I'm not a betting type of person. I am extremely confident in the US winning this game on our soil in one of the very few stadiums where they can get the "home field advantage."

    Also, I am not concerned with who the US beats as long as the qualify for another World Cup.

    USA!

    2-1 USA.

    I'll be watching the Aggie game though and will miss this one, plus I don't have ESPN classic channel.

    Thank you, RocketFan007. You're pretty good at that search thing. This means that leroy420 has to keep that signature (however it may look now) until September 27, SIX MONTHS after he lost the bet, right? Thanks. I hate it when I am helped :) Hey, leroy, I call you chicken just like Biff called Marty McFly and the whole story changed every B2TF movie. You didn't bite. :D Uprising, all TELEMUNDO local stations will carry it.

    Gracias, RocketFan007. Eres bueno con esa cosas del "search". Entonces quieres decir que LeRoy420 tiene que quedarse con esa firma (como sea) hasta el 27 de septiembre, SEIS MESES después de que perdió la apuesta, ¿no? Gracias. Me cae gordo cuando me ayudan. :) Leroy, te dije "gallina" así como cuando Biff le dijo a Marty McFly y la historia cambió todas las peliculas BackToTheFuture. No me seguiste la corriente. :D Uprising, todas las estaciones locales de TELEMUNDO lo pasarán.

    Oh, Cool. Well, it seems I'll be rooting on the Aggies at that time period instead. (that and we're having a party with a few kegs to celebrate the first College American Football game for our school.

    Should have read, Americanos 3 - Pendejos 0. :p
    I can't wait to hear Swoly's excuses. It's not like you guys dominated us in Mexico city. Get ready for a whipping!

    don grahamleone, 6:00 p.m. CENTRAL

    You've used that word before, so you must know what it means. Please don't use it again because it's just not right to say it, much less here. If you know what that word means, you will understand my request. The tongue smiley doesn't mean you can do it. I've never insulted anyone the way you are and "chicken" is not the same. Is that fair?

    I've never given excuses for anything. I've supported the U.S. in all their games--except against MEXICO--and never called the entire team anything. It's always been a friendly rivalry and you can quote me or link to a post where I have made an excuse. Be scientific, prove to me that I have said "we dominated."
    ---------
    Has usado esa palabra antes, entonces sabes lo que siginifica. Por favor no la uses de nuevo porque no está bien decirla, mucho menos aquí. Si sabes lo que significa la palabra, entenderás my petición. El emoticon de la lengua no quiere decir que puedas hacerlo. Nunca he insultado a nadie como lo haces y decirle "gallina" a alguien no es lo mismo. ¿Justo o no?

    Nunca he dado EXCUSAS para nada. He apoyado EE.UU. en todos sus juegos--menos contra MEXICO--y nunca les he llamado al equipo completo de ninguna forma. Siempre ha sido una rivalidad amistosa y me puedes citar o poner una liga a un comentario donde he dado una excusa. Sé científico y compruébame que he dicho que "hemos dominado".
