Ok Joe, enough talk ... Eagles vs. Bucs in 2004

I was thinking "gee, time to start talking some smack again" but then realized that you're just gonna keep living in the past and delude yourself into thinking the Bucs will somehow miraculously regain their Super Bowl form this year. So, I'm gonna make it simple:

Right here, right now, I'm proposing a c-note bet on whomever's team finishes with the best 2004 regular season record. No BS, no crying, no nothing ... if the Bucs finish with a better record that the Eagles, I promise to PayPal you $100 and congratulate you without any whining. And if the reverse holds true, I expect the same from you. I'm nipping all the excuse-making and weak smack-talking in the bud right now, months before the season even starts.

Whaddya say Joe? Just type the words "I accept the bet" by noon PDT on Sunday, and we're on image.

    OOHH, now we're talkin'. Too rich for my blood, but Joe is always talkin about big money bets. I'm curious to hear his response. My money would definately be with the Eagles though, If I had any money.image

    I accept a 200 dollar bet with you if the Bucs play the Eagles in 2004.

    Damn, I wanted to see some pre football season action. The Eagles don't play the Bucs in the 2004 regular season and since only one of the the teams will make the playoffs no post-season matches either. They both play the Redskins on the road and the Panthers at home so you guys should be able to cook something up.

    Typical Joestalin response, change the bet to something that can't done.

    Joe/Kevin you could always admit that when it comes to betting you're a wimp. See you at Orange Bowl on Labor Day

    I'll be here all year too Joe - and yes, we'll definitely hook up if the Bucs happen to make the playoffs and have the misfortune of facing the Eagles image.

    Seriously, good luck - I'd love a shot at redemption after the loss 2 years ago, but I really am struggling to see how the Bucs will turn it around to the extent you do in the division they're in. Losing Thomas Jones was *huge* IMO ... and losing Sapp, Lynch, and Keyshawn didn't help either. Charlie Garner? Joey Galloway? Jamel White? Gruden's a great coach and all, but man, I'd really tip my hat to him if he takes this team to the playoffs ...

    And, yes, for the record, anything short of a SB trip for the Eagles would be a disappointment.

    It doesn't look like Joe and I will get a chance to make his proposed bet in 2004 ...

    Good thing he layed off of the initial one image

    Are you kidding Joker...Noclass gets it and you would think my calling Joe out exposes him completely...all talk , no action..see how he tried to dance around my bet when only $10 was on the line.

    He said earlier in the week last week the Eagles would lose in Chicago and , of course, the Bucs would win in Denver; I made the bet more difficult by taking on both sides of the bet...so what does he do...he makes it into Super Bowl or bust.

    Only Joe is busted...wimp and windimage

    ????

    You turned down a fair bet (Eagles record vs. Bucs record) because you felt the divisions they played in weren't comparable. I let it slide.

    Now, you're trying to call people out because they won't take you up on a bet that gives you 31 chances to win and only 1 to lose?

    You're clearly a die-hard Bucs fan, and that's respectable and all ... but you're really starting to sound pathetic and desparate Joe.

    Join the club, my proposition was

    << <i>They both play the Redskins on the road and the Panthers at home so you guys should be able to cook something up. >>

    That was fair, but completely ignored. I wonder why? image
