My bet with BonesJones

[KingSpeed]

So BonesJones said "I bet you Orlando will be at least 8 games below .500 by the All Star break." I said okay for $100 and then he back tracked and made it 4 games below .500. We were both way off being that they are now 21 games below .500. You shouldn't have back tracked, Bones!! You'd be $100 richer now!

 

[Denny Crane]

Don't bet with @HCP. He doesn't pay!

Fact still remains. Orlando Sucks!
Not the city. The team.
I really like Epcot Center.

I'm confused. Was he saying they'd ONLY be 4 games below, and thus loses the bet? or that they'd be AT LEAST 4 games under .500, and thus win the bet?

Or did you both not agree to the bet?

No, the city sucks.

No, the city sucks.

Does it? I actually only been there once for 3 days and of course i spent them in a fantasy type fenced in world with Rides and for one day sea creatures.

Why the Fuck does this get a thread it's just drama nobody wants to have to see.

When you have nearly 50,000 Jinx messages you can start threads like this also.

Nah, if your into the theme parks, it’s heaven. But the actual city is trash. Feels like a giant strip mall. Cool little section of restaurants for a few blocks, but that’s it. Hot and muggy. No ocean around.

I can’t even see this thread.....what’s it about?

Yeah.... it doesn't sound like Bones said they'd be "EXACTLY 4 games under .500"

Kingspeed has a habit of manufacturing bets that were never actually agreed on.

With that said if you make a bet on an internet forum you should never actually expect to get paid and definitely shouldn't make a public spectacle of it.

This. MFs tryna screw up our meetups with side bets.

He said at least 4 so he would've won the bet. But I wanted to stay at 8 and he wouldn't go for it. If he had, he would've won.

 

[KingSpeed]

Yeah.... it doesn't sound like Bones said they'd be "EXACTLY 4 games under .500"

Again, if he had taken his original bet, he would've won. I was holding him to that bet and wouldn't take his "at least 4 games" bet and so he missed out.

BonesJones DIDN'T ultimately agree to his own bet so no bet occurred. If he stuck to his original bet, I would've taken it and he would've won.

I'm waiting for BonesJones version of the events before I make a call here.

Just make a call. If it's in the last 2 minutes, a review can be requested by the opposing coach.

Okay then I say KingSpeed owes BonesJones $100!

I'll just say that Eric's recollection of events matches mine precisely. No bet occurred, but if Bones had accepted the original proposal, he'd be getting paid.

Boy, am I glad that was cleared up.

I think we are going to have to send this one up to the boys at the review center in Jersey

If this is the case, why is the title of this thread "MY BET WITH BONESJONES"????

That implies there was a bet.

Excellent point. It would be like if @KingSpeed started a thread titled "My relationship with Colin Quinn", and explained that he didn't really have one.

The only problem with Orlando is that it is in hot steamy, lizard infested, python populated, mosquito test lab called Florida.

I don't know why I would ever turn down a bet with you!
