While we're on the wager topic:

 

Vance and CFICT's thread reminded me that me and Wolf made a wager over on GRB as well.

 

Bet:

 

I bet that no team in the NL Central will win 90 games. Wolf bet that at least one would.

 

Stakes:

 

Cap from a team store - winner's pick

Because no one wants me to change my avatar.

 

I don't know why I made this bet. Probably because I like to bet on things. I'm guessing the NLC champ get around 87 wins.

Well, if the CUBS somehow win 90 games, I'll buy that Cardinals hat and buy it proudly. :)

Go Cubs?

 

Nah.

 

You could always root for the Brewers to win 91.

Both the Brewers and Cubs have 72 losses so one more loss from each team guarantees Andy wins the bet.

 

Well, actually one team would have to lose two games if you count the one game playoff that would happen if both ended with 73 losses which would mean one team would end 90-73.

If that happens, I'll buy them both a hat. And anyone else who has posted in this thread.

I'm down for a possible free hat. TIA

By the way, Andy, I recommend that you wait until the season is over before even looking at a hat from any team store for karma purposes.

 

My editor and one of our photographers had a bet ($20 I think) this year on who would have the better regular season record, the Warriors or the Kings. My editor had the Warriors and had the bet won with a few games left in the regular season. But since the Warriors were still fighting for a playoff spot, he refused to accept the money until the regular season was over. I think he took it before the Warriors' first round series against the Mavs.

Good idea, I clinched Cubs(+5) over the White Sox, and the guy was refusing to give it to me til after the season. Maybe, hopefully I can tell him to keep his money til November.
