I was having a discusion with a 76ers fan who refused to take a $5000 bet that the Magic would not win another game.-lol If you are a 76ers fan, wouldn't you want to increase your BANK ACCOUNT???


Why would it matter to bet against your team if you will have a nice financial come up??

I'm not a betting person, and I'm loyal to our home teams, but with 5K on the line, I'd have to say yes. :seeya: :lol:

Hell no.

If you lose the bet, how are you going to come up with $5000?

$5000 bet would have to be a SURE THING

like Wreckless betting a 76ers fan that the Magic will not get SWEPT.


Hey Wreckless I know you would take that bet

If it was a sure thing, then I'd do it in a heartbeat. That's why I would never bet on a Cleveland team. :lol:

If I wanted to bet you that the Cavs would win the series over the Pistons in a Sweep and win every game by 20 or more points, you would jump on that in a second-lol

I just can't understand why someone couldn't seperate themselves from their team temporarily so they can win some money-lol

I don't think many people would not take a bet for 5 grand that was a sure thing, even if they believe they would. Hypothetical is a lot different than reality. Looking at 5 grand changes things. Unless a person has a lot of money, I just don't believe it.

Janice I will bet $5000 bones that the Red Sox win their next game by 20 runs-LOL
