Why did you not use the the last -adjusted-score that counted for the FINAL rankings in the seeds for the "playoffs"?

The adjusted score was actually the FINAL result according to all of our discussions.

I meant to. I copied them from the top of your adjusted score posting, but not from the actual adjusted scores. It is corrected above.

Now you picked the wrong Conference.

Maybe Redeemed will bump you off in the divisional round, and I can go on to glory in the Hognostication Bowl.

Oh man! I thought 17 weeks of unfulfilled promises would teach all of us something.

PLEASE read HIS signature.

If I take out AMFIC in the divisional round, I will have "slayed the beast", if you will, and will be the hottest Hognosticator going in the playoffs. I won't roll over for you, chump*.

*Please note: TRO means this as a joke. Thank you.*

Hopefully, by that Sunday, the infamous sig should be gone. Gone!!!!!!!!

But until then, I must take it one week at a time. Right now my focus is squarely on this:

FanFromAnnapolis Vs. Redeemed

The Dream Match takes place this week. I'm comin' for ya, FFA!!!

I initially suggested the tree, but I see the advantage in using the same format for the playoffs. That way, RiC can continue to do his thing, and JSPB can run the playoffs if he'd like (for the record, I'd be in on that if possible).

Therefore, I voted for the first option.



Oh, and: Bring it, Red.

Ahhh, lovely, bulletin board material...

In his sig line, FFA wrote:This week in the playoffs: Red "my posts are meaningless padding for the next week" Eemedskin.

In honor of the late "Junkyard Dog", I will laye the "thump" down on ya this week.

You keep promising to lay this down or lay that down and you are the only one laying down.
You gave him a run but what made you think you'd catch him

Take a crack at the games and see how you will do. I thought the Sig bet deal was cool because I know you didn't think you you would actually win, DID YOU.

Now that you have lost why not show a little class and maintain your normal post count of 7-8 a day. You lost a bet that said it would last 200 post. Your being a sore loser by throwing up 114 post in one day. If that's not bad enough you cluttering the board up with orange nonsense in every forum. That wasn't the sprit of the bet and you know it.

I agree.

This race to go for 200 posts in a couple of days makes it very difficult to have another bet in the future. I did not think that the signature was that bad. In fact, one would argue that it was designed to be understood only by the posters who followed the Hognostication threads. I will not say anything more

Unfortunately, a limit on posts per day was NOT part of the agreement. I'm holding up my end of the bargain. Period.

Post-padding just to get through a lost bet is pretty disingenuous though, don't you think?

Perhaps, but it isn't without precedent around these here parts, if I clearly remember. BTP! lost a bet to a Puke fan once, and nobody said a peep about his method of "paying up". Perhaps this is an issue about color.

Exactly.

Can't say much about what you clearly remember as I do not share that clear memory. All I can say is what I see.

I had the unenviable characteristic to always bring about controversial discussions with BTP and GF. For some strange reason, almost anything we discussed ended up in the Smack forum. Which brings me to say that the fact that BTP paid his bet in that way does not make it right.

So that this issue is settled without any further interference with the site and keeps on creating unnecessary work to the mods and the site, I hereby Redskin in Canada release you of your obligation to fulfill our bet.

It is no longer required that you wear the signature that I designed for you. I consider myself satisfied with the results of the threads and the fun that we had throughout the entire season.

Thanks for your participation and hopefully this approach solves all perceptions.

And not, it is not a colour issue. Not orange, nor white, black or purple. Nothing personal. It is an action intended to prevent similar behaviour in the future.

So, no more bets from me. Only bragging rights.

Darn it, RiC! If you keep taking the high road all the time, it's going to be hard to root against you in the playoffs.

Joe Gibbs truly changed my life. I mean, seriously. Do you remember many of his interviews win or lose over the last couple of seasons? You just have to ask yourself the question:

What is the most positive, effective and constructive way to sort issues out?

I agree. It is tough to root against HIM.
