    If I remember correctly 4chuckie's an Ohio St. fan so he's used to losing. I'll do him a favor and give him a name that symbolizes winning. Yep, you got it, 4chuckie will become 4UMichigan in October...

    I just have one request for the slim possibility that my side lose - I really would like to get rid of the number connected with my name - and 2001 will not make it better. [​IMG]

    Low blow my friend, hopefully Tressel will end our suffering! And yeah anything having to do with Michigan is about as bad as it could get for me, so you picked a good one!

    I'm still thinking about yours BGM, but I'll come up with something! [​IMG]

    If I understand the bet correctly HPs and my side says that if present Rockets start, so Walt or Langhi. Am I wrong HP. Either way, Langhi is starting.

    Once and for all:

    The Bet

    The bet is as written in the 1st sentence of the 1st post in this thread.

    Determining the Winning side

    Determining the winning side is up to Crisco and I admitting defeat and all others must accept that decision as a team. If I admit defeat, my whole team loses. In the event of neither Crisco or I admitting defeat, Mango shall cast the deciding vote...or some other arbitrator that each team agrees on.

    Answer to UofTOrange

    The following is an explanation to a direct question from UofTOrange, and is not to be construed as a redefinition of the first sentence of the first post, or the conditions of winnning or losing.

    If we do not get a new SF from the draft, another team or another league who is projected higher than Langhi on openning day, then Criso's side loses, because Crisco's side is actually saying that we need a new *starting* SF. My side is saying, not only will we not get a new *starting* SF, but we won't get one who even leap frogs Langhi on the depth chart.

    This bet has nothing to do with Langhi being a starter. Langhi is merely a measure of skill for the new SF, so that Crisco's side has a chance in hell of winning. Hell, Crisco actually expects us to pursue an NBA starter via trade or free agency.

    I'm being nice to the CriscoKidds; your new guy merely has to be better than Langhi by Oct 31st. Your new guy does not have to start openning night like Crisco really believes, yet, of course, neither does Langhi....Crisco and I have NEVER stated that Langhi must start.

    So in essence as long as a player that was not on the roster last year is not in front of Langhi, we win. Well that is what I thought the bet was, just wanted to make sure, people keep talking and trying to change stuff. Either way, I am on HPs side. Not only do I believe no new Rocket will be the starter on opening day, but that Langhi will be the opening day starter at SF. If I am wrong, oh well.

    That's exactly the way I understood the bet. A new Rocket must be ahead of Langhi, so if Walt starts ahead of Langhi, that doesn't matter, cause Walt is NOT a new Rocket.

    This shiot is confusing. I thought it was if Langhi will start or not. Oh freaking well. We will still get somebody better than Walt or Langhi. If SA stays and starts then I want it to be called even and the BET is off.

    Is that fair HP , if not I am bailing.

    Wink,

    Your man merely has to beat out Langhi. He does not have to start anymore than Langhi does!!!

    Here is the deal. You do not get to decide if you won or lost. Your team captain decides. If you cannot accept Crisco's defeat gracefully, you can't bet.

    Wink is out of the bet UNLESS

    ...unless you promise allegiance to CriscoKidd. If his moniker changes, you will accept defeat. Hit REPLY and type these word exactly:

    "I am not a p***y bettor. I hereby pledge allegiance to the betting fate of CriscoKidd, my bet master."

    If you fail to quote that pledge exactly, YOU ARE OUT OF THE BET!

    What does Langhi have to do w/ the bet? I thought that the bet was that a new SF had to beat out Matt Bullard in the Rockets long range plans. What's going on? Are you changing the bet again heyp?
