Silencer and b204's Baseball bet thread.

browning204 · April 03, 2009, 08:06:29 PM

Hi all, Baseball season is upon us, Redsox open up in Boston on Monday. I am a die hard Sox fan and Silencer loves them Yankees.
So as we all know, Sox and Yankee fans like to trash talk each other and wish losses and sometimes worse on the other team.

Silencer and I have agreed to make a bet on the rivalry. The bet is that Silencer says that the Yankees will finish the regular season with a better record than the Redsox. I say hogwash and the Redsox will come out on top of the east.

The loser of this bet will buy a fitted hat for the winner. So I will be forced to go out in public and purchase a Yankee hat or vise versa.

This is the thread (if it is ok with Jimbo) that Silencer and I will keep track of the season and smack talk a little.

Jimbo, could you pin this thread?

Good luck Silencer, I look forward to the new hat.

To get this thread of in the right direction:

Silencer · April 03, 2009, 10:03:16 PM

Yep, we've made an agreement.

I actually thought of something like that, but if you guys saw my dancing skills, you would all be jealous!

The looser should have to post a pic of theirself wearing the winning teams hat and holding a sign saying their #1.

It's gonna be a long summer aint it?

If it ever gets here.

Silencer · April 04, 2009, 03:39:54 AM

Jim had some pretty fly moves!! I have been workin on some new moves here in case of a dance off. I am pretty well known around these parts for my "sprinkler" and "worm" moves!!

Coulter · April 04, 2009, 12:32:53 PM

Well I am a diehard...ahem...Mariners Fan

I have to say that even though I consider Silencer a friend I have to join 204 with the Spankmee bashing

I despise that whole franchise...The good news is that my wife is a BoSox fan. Therefore I can earn some brownie points while I instigate a little bit on this thread. Gonna be a fun summer

Oh and sorry Vic

Steve

Coulter, glad to have you on board!

I also despise the Yankee organization. How about their new stadium? A clone to the original stadium but with fewer seats. Why fewer seats? Because Steinbrener got sick of hearing about how Fenway sells out every single game but his does not. Well, except when Boston comes to town. So he built a stadium with fewer seats to try to sell out and make it look like his team is as popular as Boston.

He might sell out his stadium now but it has nothing to do with popularity, any one who knows about baseball knows that Boston has a much larger fan base nation wide.

Silencer · April 05, 2009, 03:13:59 AM

Both teams looked pretty good yesterday for the last pre-season game. I hate the Mets just as much.

HaMeR · April 05, 2009, 07:28:03 AM

QuoteThe bet is that Silencer says that the Yankees will finish the regular season with a better record than the Redsox.

Well since both teams SUCK

I think you guys need to have a little side bet on the head to head record too. How many games between the two?? 12??

Go Red Stockings!!!!

browning204 · April 05, 2009, 10:17:54 AM

I also believe that Redsox will come out on top of all the Yanks/Sox season series.

browning204 · April 06, 2009, 05:15:25 PM

Well the Home opener for the Sox got rained out, and boy did it rain!

And right now the Yanks are losing to Baltimore. CC sabathia is not doing to hot.........

browning204 · April 06, 2009, 07:19:39 PM

WOW did sabathia crash? Yanks lost big time!

Silencer · April 07, 2009, 07:04:47 AM

Yeah B, that looked like the same old Yanks.. the best pull the bats outta their backsides. CC had no control whatsoever.

What a day of baseball anyhow, lots of GREAT games on yesterday !!!!

You guys play the make-up game around 4 est right ? Good luck !!

browning204 · April 07, 2009, 08:00:11 AM

ya, Boston is sposed to make up @ 4ish tonight. We will see how it goes. The thing about the Yanks is, they lose and drop weird games, then they surge and scare everyone. I am not gonna count them out until real close to the end.

C.C. Just had some stage fright, he will be O.K.
