The Sox will be over .500 for the month of June. They will shake this off and start playing better baseball.

If I'm wrong, I'll own it. I won't change words around like Steve does. I just feel this team can't play this poorly any longer. They will have a good June and hit the AS break in 1st place.

R-E-L-A-X

PS- INQUISITOR is a giant piece of shit.

The Thunder won't win more than one game against them.

The Spurs will never win a championship with Avery Johnson at point guard.

Surprised Frank has not signed that deal? dont think IMU has mixed words here.

Post subject:  Re: June Swoon? Pfft.

Oh, bigfan, that wasn't an actual offered bet. Frank has established a pattern of not taking responsibility for his wagers.

I also believe the White Sox will be above .500 in the month of June. If only barely...that is a tough month.

I'd take the bet. they won't be as bad as they've been over the 2 weeks, but they'll struggle to break .500.
Starters 3-5 are not very good.

That's not a fair statement. His post offering crazy odds was just pointing out 312's mistake in where the games were being played. A petty thing to point out, for sure, but it was clear that was his intention.

Yup. People rewriting history here.

312player even said that he didn't accept the bet. This is just the jealous Cubbie Cabal making something out of nothing.

So you're disingenuous and a welch. Understood.

Since you are the board expert on everything from liver sausage to gambling now, please explain how someone can welch on a bet that was never agreed to.

Post subject:  Re: June Swoon? Pfft.

So the bet was offered and wasn't a joke based on the location? I'll take your above post as you admitting it was a legit wager. So...

That is exactly what I'm doing.

Take the bet.


He said he would take the bet if he believed you would pay. You assured him as much by stating "take the bet."

You can get off on the technicality, and if others here are on your side that is great for you. But I'm seeing a welch.

I will offer Frank 5-1 odds that the Chicago White Sox will not be in first place in the their divsion at the end of June.

2$ max limit wager, wins him $10 or pays me $2. Thus any other team is in first place I win 2$. If the Sox remain in first place he wins $2.

I do reserve the rights to transfer my rights in this wager, but will guarantee such terms.

Making up your own bet and your own terms, bigfan? Hmmm...the last time a guy jumped into a thread and did that, somebody lost their shit and started deleting posts, and banned a guy.

That's a suckers bet. The Sox will be out of first place before they return home from the road trip they begin tonight. They could very well be in 3rd place by then and NO, they will not have a winning record in June. Other than the Twinkies at the end of the month and the Tigers, they will have their hands full in June.

You forgot to add...

"made up his own RIDICULOUS BETS"

But you not actually addressing the wager is about what I expected as you could have just said NO, but you tried to change the focus back to when you wanted to change the cubs EXPECTED win total to 117.
