    I will wager $25 to go into the Tip Jar:

    I say the Rockets will force a Game 7. If the Rox win the next two all who bet against me have to put in contributions to the Tip Jar. If the Rox lose Game 5 or Game 6 then I will contribute $25 to the Tip Jar.

    Any takers?

    Great. I hope I win, because I hope the guys win and because I hope Karla remains ringless and ugly instead of just ugly.

    Who else is going to try and force me to pay the Jar?

    Where are all the doubters? I put up a specific amount offered anyone else to put up any amount. You doubt, then bet. Tip Jar wins, one way or the other. What could be better than that?

    I'm afraid I'll have to bet that we will not make it (eliminate the Lakers). If we do, $ 50 to the tip jar.

    Don't worry about Karla remains ringless, this loser can never win a ring, certainly not with this Lakers team. Just by having Malone on the lakers they are not going to win a championship this season. It's really possible for Rox to force a game 7 and take the series.

    I would love to see us force a game seven and win, but my brain tells me it is not to be this year. I'll put in $25 if we make it there.

    I'd bet, but I root for the Rockets so I simply can not bet against them. I think the odds are stacked heavily against you in making this bet and I think the tip jar will be very full of your money very soon. I hope it's worth it for you to make whatever point you are trying to make.
