Learn how to speak english and explain what a stupid picture is trying to say if you honestly want a response. Otherwise stick to the usual crap you guys seem to be good at.

But it's just so hard to let down that guard. What would people think if they knew that I, for instance, wanted us to trade a then-AAA Ricky Romero for a bag of peanuts because I was tired of seeing him suck in the minors? Or that I thought Brett Wallace would hit close to league average for a first baseman straight out of the gate? Or that I thought that we made a serious mistake in promoting the wrong assistant GM, as Tony LaCava was clearly a superior option to the largely-unknown Canadian, Alex Anthopolous? That I felt that we should have thought long and hard about non-tendering Jose Bautista after the 2009 season?

If posters on the Jays board knew about these things and my other mistakes (help me out here, folks), they might cease worshiping me as the prognosticative god that I am. And we couldn't have that.


Not to mention picking Lind to finish ahead of Jose in RBI's.... :D

Hey, you win some, you lose some! lol!

Edit: Tip for Sonrise - Man-up! If you would have got in on the ground floor here, you could have likely been part of the new-name process.... As it stands, you're getting no sympathy and have become a target. Time to eat crow and cut a deal.

Sonrise wrote:A. Every team loses games some times

And the Orioles lose a hell of a lot of them. Which is why I accepted the bet.

B. That wasn't my proposed bet, as clearly stated, the bet was that we would finish below the Orioles, which we didn't and I was wrong. Had Randy accepted my bet I would have gladly paid up, integrity is very important to me.

If you felt this way, you had the opportunity to correct me when I bumped this thread in July and used the word "bet" to describe your post. You didn't. And now you've chosen a rather pathetic way out.


But, lemme turn it around for a second, if the roles were reversed and Randy had offered the bet and then at seasons end I reminded him of it. Do you think for a second, he would pay up? I mean this is a guy that is on record as saying that he can't remember ever being wrong about anything and can not poke fun at himself.

#1. Except that isn't the situation, nor was it ever going to be the situation. I don't make stupid bets. You made a pretty bad one and lost.

#2. FWIW, of course I would. I have self-respect. Not all of us are attention-seeking, bet-welching trolls that post that the Jays will finish last in an attempt to draw a reaction out of people.


Again, if he had said so much as ,"OK, deal" or "I accept your bet" or "You're on" then again, I would now be posting as Leolovingliberal, which to Schads credit was very funny. P.S. While I'm on a raving tangent, Schad, your posts are funny, but you too take yourself waaaaay too seriously and never poke fun at yourself and admit that you're wrong about anything. It'll be okay, if you exhibit a little self deprecating humor on occasion, I promise.

If he's not going to accept that he lost and do it willingly, just change this guy's name for him. He more than deserves it with all the comments and threads he's made.

and the double or nothing bet could be to see if norris cole (drafted 28th overall) is better than james johnson.

sonrise, have some fun with it. one of your very bold predictions was wrong. its not the end of the world.

Unfortunately, you can't offer bet-welchers double or nothing. They'll just end up doing the same thing again.

Well, if he doesn't change his name, I'll just have to call him LeoLovinLiberal unofficially everytime he starts a new dumb thread.

CZAR85 wants his name changed to BJSFANS_SUCK.

I suggest he change it to Mrs. Sonrise.
