    Dude, the bet is not about jo mamma, it's about you.
    Don't give me this I'm in college crap either. When I went to UT, I had to deal with the Spurs fans telling me that Robinson > Dream.

    We even made a bet in the 95 WCF. Regardless of how humiliating it was that they lost, the Spurs fan paid up.

    Paying off debts is a life lesson. Friendships could end if you act like this in real life to others. Can you imagine if your roomate doesn't pay up and leave you half the rent ?

    here's someone that lost a bet and keep their promise.

    enjoy dude. learn this lesson!

    One, they are overrated.

    Two, again with the bets. If you had made the bet with me, and privately asked me when I was paying, I would have told you my circumstances. Jo mama didn't. He posted in numerous threads about it even when I tried to explain my situation. I have a large credit card debt, I work 50 hours a week and am paid for only 20 hrs at min wage, the rest is unpaid. I have to pay for my bills/food with those 20 hrs of pay. I graduated, got a job and worked my ass off for 6 months to make a trip to Lebanon to continue studying. When I was just 2 weeks away from my trip, with 5 days left at work, I STILL was worried about not having enough money. I had enough for like 10-15 dollars a day for food. I wasn't going to throw 50 dollars at a guy who is a complete ass imo.

    When I do donate to clutchfans, I won't tell anyone, and I won't want/need anyones praise or approval. I probably could have lied and said I paid it just waiting for my membership to be changed. I didn't, I told him the truth in hopes that we would understand. I had no intention of not paying the debt. However, I am extremely stubborn and hard-headed. If someone annoys me, I will do whatever I can to ensure that they are not satisfied.

    I don't take my lessons from tv "stars."

    If my roommate didn't pay up, the law is on my side.

    It has nothing to do with the bet, and everything to do with Jo_mama pushing me and pushing me. Eventually you're just going to annoy the person so much that they will do one of two things: give in, suffer, and pay the money. Or say FU, flip them the bird, and say "bet on this," as they grab their junk. I chose the latter.

    I say shove-it to all the highbrow posters who think they're cool by trolling, telling people what they can and can not post in certain forums, criticizing other posters for their opinion, etc. You say it's a life lesson. I say it is a life lesson to stand up to a holes like this and say, you know what I really don't give a sht what you think about me, my situation, or my opinions.

    again, this is not about jo mama. on the contrary, he's probably satisfied showing that you are not a person of your word. you made the bet dude. We all have to live with our choices.

    It was a tip jar bet, meaning the money goes to Clutchfans not jo mamma.

    Half the fun of the Pistons thread was to see if McGrady would score 15 points.

    Why did you make the bet in the first place if you didn't have the means to pay up if you lost?

    Because I thought I WOULD have the means by then. Again, you guys are making it easier, not harder for me not to pay this bet.

    It IS about Jo mama, he was a dick to me. I am not going to pay a bet for a guy who was so rude about it. Before the bet he was rude, during the season he was rude, after he was rude. He chose to throw it in my face that I was wrong, which I was not upset about, I knew Mac wasn't going to avg 15 after the first month of the season.

    But please, keep wasting your time.

    What's funny is he acts like I just tried to forget about it. When in fact, for several months, until just a few weeks ago, I kept the bet in my sig so EVERYONE knew I intended to pay when possible.

    Ok what????

    LOL tin man you are hilarious. He said what does hakeem have to do with this season? He has NOTHING to do with this season. That doesn't mean he hates hakeem, it means he doesn't think he has anything to do with this season.

    Now I don't know what that thread was about, I am not going to check, but from what I gathered from yalls previous posts, it was a hakeem highlight or something? Somehow, I assume, someone said hakeem had something to do with this season and he disagreed?

    I question that you even looked at that thread.

    It's a Dream vs McHale video showing our new coach Kevin McHale as a player.

    As you already mentioned you are obviously not old enough to see McHale or Dream play in 86. Seeing McHale play against the greatest Rocket ever is something interesting .

    And in every year at any time, people post about Hakeem.

    Even RTM.

    I just asked a fair question. What does Hakeem have I do with this season? How does that make me an Olajuwon hater?

    The truth is that if you don't bow down on your knees and worship Hakeem then you are a "Hakeem hater"

    Smh

    Oh and truerox, don't let these trolls force you into paying anything. Do it when you can afford it. Frankly you don't have to explain anything to them.
