Is it cool....

to take advantage of a life long high school buddy you invited to the game? The scene:

ebrooks: " Hey Danny, I'll give you 30 to 1 we block this field goal "
Danny: "absolutely"
Margus: " Excuse me, I'll be coming through this hole "
the 30 people around us: " HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA "


Mind you, Danny got a free ticket, free food and drink, and the experience of the B'Vard! Now I ask you, is this situation acceptable?

You bet, you pay, or you can't stay.

That was a strange enough bet that Danny should have known something was up. He didn't, so, well, sucks to be him.

Perfectly acceptable.

all wagers are OK. leveraging knowledge is what makes betting fun. it applies to table games just the same as sport, or anything else for that matter.

Danny was probably an aggie. therefore you could double him up on the instant replay. :lol:

I see no problem with your upper hand - how many times do you see a blocked FG?..hardly ever- this is getting to where our opponents are going to think twice about it.

And when they start loading up to stop Margus then somebody else will be open to block the kick.

GO PONIES!!!

So you math majors can do the numbers pretty quick, how many games how many blocks, percentage etc

Last week June said he's a cult hero they were going to bronze a statue of him next to Doak. Caught him waving at the crowd

Go tell your buddy he doesn't have to pay up if he comes to every game for the rest of the season. He'd win, too, because he'd get to see Hunt play. Margus is something special.

Build the fan base.

Any way we can get his face on some shirts? we need something like "I will block you" from Rocky IV or "do you feel lucky, Punk". Something awful that I can profit off of. :D
