One Post did not spend money. One Post is chastising other for casting judgement, yet he is doing just that. Do as he says, not as he does.

I didn't know it was open. America tried to get in on it and you did not accept it from him.

Are you planning on opening it up for next year? :lol:

Trust me, the last thing I need to do it justify anything that I do in my life to shitbirds like Frank and B-Rick.

JORR and I made a wager, like men. Neither us has has whined about it nor crowed about it. We made an agreement for our own reasons and lived up to it.

Pissants like Frank and B-Rick remind me of some comments by our 26th President.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming.."

Where were these two men of action when the bet was made? Nowhere. If it was such a slam dunk win for JORR they should have asked me for a piece of the action. Where were these two big shots? Sitting back while the crickets chirped and JORR was man enough to lay action on the line. 6 months later they are crowing away about a bet they didn't even make.

Yeah, so I'm sure you'll understand why I really don't feel any compulsion to explain any of my monetary choices to them.


Do you really assign some level of integrity to a person because he might place a bet?

That is a public relations message Las Vegas has never thought to employ.

I think you are missing the point.

JORR for whatever his reasons entered into the wager. Fronted the money and accepted the consequences whatever they may be. Nobody has heard peep from him on the issue since then.

These other two real men are bouncing around the room like the accomplished something themselves. I'm not passing moral judgement on a wager, or assigning any level of integrity to the act. All that aside JORR actually entered into the wager. He was the doer of the deed. These other two shitbums appear to be interested in commenting on the bet, criticizing the wager, telling me how to spend my money, etc. But they were nowhere to be found when it was time to put up or shut up.

Seeing their comments in this thread, I'm not surprised.

Considering you had already ignored America when I first saw the thread what was I supposed to do?

Are you opening up the same bet for next year?

Hey man of action Rick. Why don't you use the quote function and show me where American offered to take some action on the bet. It should be easy for a man of action like yourself. Just use the quote function like a big boy.

Again if you don't understand how entering into the one side of an agreement for your own reasons is different from sitting on your ass like a pile of shit and telling someone else how to spend their money, then I really can't help you.

So One Post, you going to make the same offer of a bet next year?

He said that about a different bet.

And yes, if he thought it was a $250 donation then you should have gone after him with the same indignation you are going on here.

If it was an open bet you should have at least offered him the option though I'm guessing you didn't want 10 people all jumping in and taking your money so easily.

So, next year, you offering the same bet?

Here is the brass tax. Nobody, not a big man like yourself, or another big man like Frank, or anyone else, America, etc. Either sent me a PM, or sent me quoted message in that thread asking me to extend the wager to them. Fact. Nobody else was a man of action other than JORR.

If you wanted a part of the bet, you should have spoken up months ago. Instead you sat on your ass and did nothing. Funny you have all these thoughts, and assumptions that you talk about months after the bet, but on the day of the bet you were as silent as a church mouse.

Go out and make your own stand somewhere, stop living vicariously through JORR, just try it, you'll feel good about yourself regardless of the outcome.

Is that a "no" about offering the best next year?

But, to your point, I didn't think you were open to more bets. Losing $250 with a dumb bet was enough.

I'm not living vicariously through JORR. I'm laughing at how angry you are at JORR knowing that at least part of it comes with just how badly he clowned you in that bet.

I lost a baseball bet this year most likely so it's not like I'm afraid to bet.

Is a "brass tax" what you call it when you make a dumb bet and have to give a percentage of your money to someone else?

You seem really interested in telling me about how my life is. Just be happy with yours instead of worrying about mine!

I'm just telling you what you did. Sat on your ass when it was time to make a bet. Fact.

You're the one who started this by commenting on my life choices regarding money.

Maybe you missed the earlier post, but I'll lay it out again. Try to digest it better this time.

A few things here Rick:

1. I don't hate anyone in life, man that would be a tough way to go about living, so if you harbor hatred, go to therapy. Same goes for anger. I'm not angry at anyone, JORR or otherwise. If you're projecting, then again, to to therapy.

2. I really enjoy JORR, I don't always agree with him, but I don't feel he's not genuine about his positions

3. Maybe if you spent a little more time working, and less time posting on this here board, you might be able to piss away $250 bucks for no good reason other than you don't care

4. Don't ever tell me how to spend my money

Also, irony lives in the above post. A guy calling someone out for a grammar/spelling mistake has a grammar/spelling mistake in the very post that he uses to call the other person out.

One Post may not be familiar with message boards. If you make a $250 bet on a message board, expect comments from other people. Especially if you made the dumbest fucking bet any of us can remember.

I'm not sure spelling tacks as tax counts as a grammar error. Most likely it just reveals how dumb whoever typed it is.

Oh it certainly does reveal how dumb the poster is, but if you're going to point it out, probably a good idea to scrub your post for similar errors.
