THIS is a great thread Eleven. Keep it updated and try to prevent it from burying deep in the nether regions of the threads 👍🏼

I believe we have one on Ryan Graves next contract. No $ though. The threshold was $5.5M, I think.

You and I, going back to late April. Gentleman’s bet.
I re-posted it in the Lay out your off season plan thread. It was April 12th.

I will not be giving to any charities After witnessing my father die in front of me When I had to wait for an ambulance for 20 minutes .

 No one will ever get a cent out of my pocket ever again

 I will buy you liquor if you want

This an interesting take on a lost wager.

You don’t have to give it to the ambulance company.

Have you lost a bunch of bets to buffalonill in the recent past?

You told me at the time that I'd have to remind you.  It's in Savoie's draft day thread along with a lot of other stuff that I'd be happy to be wrong about.

I'm not giving it to anyone that's the point.

Well you sure gave it to LGR4GM, didn’t you?

I am not a rich man, but I’ll gladly pay the $100 on @Buffalonill behalf if he goes away until the season opener.  
 

Maybe that will be more painful than actually paying up. But something should happen.

Sorry for the loss of your father. That’s terrible.

 

can it be $100 in liquor? ship $100 of liquor to @LGR4GM

I have to say, I watched my father die in front of me when I was 15, so I feel for you.  However,  I cannot even imagine how that creates a reason for a total lack of empathy for other people.  Your explanation for not wanting to ever give to any charity is absurd.

Looking good? A season and a quarter over all of 2023-24, 2024-25, and 2025-26? Both sides look completely reasonable to me at this point.
