ok, a wager...

for the first to respond only (before the match)...
I bet USA will beat BEL...10QP for 15QP...

This bet means that if Belgium beats the USA, I give you 15QP
and when the USA beats Belgium, y'all give me 10QP...

Hold on... Belgians play soccer? That's not fair. They should be disqualified for eating performance ennhancing waffles. Everybody knows Belgian waffles give you super speed.

And now I am given an insult from 'he who shall not be insulted'  laugh  

If the USA doesn't play soccer, why does FIFA rank us 13th and AUS 62nd in the world?

Before you even start to 'diss' the Yanks, please show me how the Socceroos are better.

(edit to note that this is posting number 666 for me...   ...giggle...)

WAGER CLOSED

and ok, a wager for my pal Dadds.

I bet 25QP on Germany against the field (and for another 10QP, I bet that they will play Argentina in the final).

Sadly, this wager is only open to my Australian friend.

If anyone else has a wager, please post it here and maybe someone will pick it up...  



(edit to state that this wager closes at the start of (kick-off, as it were) the France/Germany match at 09:00 PDT on the Fourth of July, 2014 )

(re-edit to show that the wager is no longer valid)

There was a restaurant (a 'pancake-house') here in Oregon that advertised they will not serve 'Belgian waffles' (a lot of people went there for a late lunch to watch the match)...

DING!!!

and with the ringing of the 'time-bell', the previous wager with Dadds is closed as not accepted in time.  



(edit - ...After all, you cannot bet on a horse after he has left the gate...   ...If anyone has a wager, post it here...)

Was that pancake house international?

ok, right now, for the first to respond, I bet that Germany will defeat Argentina in the final (10QP)

I also bet that Germany will win it all (25QP)

both bets must be accepted no later than the 13:00 PDT kickoff between Germany/Brasil on July 8, 2014...
