Re: Paddy Power Presents: CPF Betting Action 2012

For the fun of it I would like to place $20 bet on this from Ceetar

I think at the end of the day, Duda will be the second most valuable RFer, but it'll be close with Stanton.




I'm betting that Duda will not be the second most valuable RFer.

Ah, c'mon. If not money, bet a baseball card. Bet a beer. Bet a humiliating day in a Speedo.

bet something really good. like a public proclamation of love and affection towards the wilpon regime. or a day in a mfy cap. the latter would of course grant you free reign to commit nefarious crimes and misdemeanors, so it's not a total loss.

I don't know... I think that wearing a Yankee cap could result in severe scalp burns.

I don't know if I'd really get any enjoyment out of any of you wearing a Yankee cap though.

Ok , I can go for either donating money or, and this is not easy to say, wearing one of those awful MFY's 28 championship jackets......the wearer must have a picture taken with it on amd post it here AND on their facebook.

Re: Paddy Power Presents: CPF Betting Action 2012

Personally, I'd bet cash before I'd bet wearing MFY stuff. Money can be replaced. My soul, not so much.

I'm kinda concerned about the MFY possibility. Are you saying some of you _own_ this stuff for me to wear if I lost? I certainly don't. I got two free SI Yankees hats last year and promptly put them in a white elephant grab bag at christmas time.

Re: Paddy Power Presents: CPF Betting Action 2012

How about one of those douchey "Big Papi Has A Tiny PeePee LOL" (or some such) shirts from one of those River Avenue stands? Not technically the enemy gear, but just as-- if not more-- embarrassing.

Re: Paddy Power Presents: CPF Betting Action 2012

Would it be possible to link to the threads where these wagers were initially made? I'm having trouble finding them to read the context in which the originated.

Also, I'm pretty sure I still owe Lunch a giant beer at Zum Schneider from some wager I lost years ago.

I linked mine up there and here is the thread where Ceetar thinks the Mets will score more runs than the Phillies.

Who knows, this one could take a while to resolve. Or if it's not issued in 2012 do we call it a push and drink wine or something?

Also a push: If it's another 'top' prospect but not Havens?

are we counting coaches as 'Mets'? I'd lean towards no, since I'm not sure how we judge 'scrub' status of coaches.

Oh, I owe you a beer, but Willets owes me one.
