Nah, you're just bankroll challenged.

I'd like this action too, BL. I know you said you're limited to $15, but I'll pay you $5 if McCain wins, and you pay me if he loses in November.

I can support more action for your wife, Randy, and I can also support puckhead's bet. But this would require me to cancel my bet with BigL (can't take both sides of a bet here). If everyone is okay with that I can take some of the pressure off of BigL.


EDIT: I can take your wife's bet if she would like to make one, Randy. Originally sounded kinda scandalous.

LOL, my wife saw this and was like WTF RANDY! Oh, never mind. :lol: Yeah, she'll take $5 that McCain doesn't win right?? If so we're on.

I'm confused now! What bets do I and don't I have now?

My humor is unwelcome here? Let me know, I couldn't help myself. :oops:

ROFL, it took me this long to click on this thread because I don't like getting involved too much in elections I can't influence a little bit. I really don't even like to hear about them, especially if it's a national election where everything you hear is read off a teleprompter and you have no idea if the reader even believes what he's reading.

Anyhow. I hope McCain wins but I agree with Merv on this one.

Hmmm action. I bet McCain wins Texas in November.

California, New York, Florida may make some good prop bets later.

You don't have to take my bet.

I will take this bet.

[bigloser2448]

I habe no problem keep the bet. I just can't take on any more, just in case. If you want to back out and take Randy's wife on, that's fine as long as someone else takes it. I'm comfortable with $15 on this. No more, but it doesn't need to be less either.

So fight amongst yourselves who my $15 action goes to, and just let me know in the end.

[sfustsh]

I can't take a $5 bet from you and the opposite bet for Randy's wife, you see?

[bigloser2448]

I understand that. If you want out, you're out. I just wanted someone else to step into your place and take the bet, you see? I guess if Puckhead confirms that he'll take the bet in your place, I'm cool.

All I'm saying is, don't back out 'cause you think I want out. I'll take a bet from someone else then. k?
