#4 - Men's Hockey: Finland blanks Russia

Saku Koivu celebrating his goal in the 4-0 beating Finland put on the Russians.

Once again...

T-Bag must pay up

#4 - Russia will win the gold.

The bet...
TBag: Russia will win the gold.
Mike: No they won't.
Wager: 1 can of Pepsi.

#3 - Complete

Bag paid up in full.

#3 - Pay up Reminder

TBag put off payment of his bet to finnmik this morning at break. Finnmik suggested that we respectfully remind him of the consequences of not paying up.

# 3 - Settled

Mike's knack for taking advantage of people's hearts over their brains has paid off yet again. Canada continued its lack-lustre performance by going down to the Russians 2-0 yesterday. While Bags heart cannot be questioned his wallet must be.
Let us just hope for Bagger's sake that this loss throws him into a depression thereby draining him of his desire for food so he may be successful in bet #2.

Teabag must pay up!

# 3 - Teabag takes Canada to win Gold at the 2006 Winter Olympics - Mike takes everybody else.

Back from his recent back woes and fueled by the recent suckage of the Canadian men's hockey team, Mike is itching to bet! He didn't even care who he took!

Sheesh

----------end of email from Mike------------

So he and T-bag came to an agreement. T-Bag says Canada will win Hockey Gold, and Mike says they will not. We're waiting on the stakes. Will it be food? Money? drink? livestock? women? Chattel? Stay tuned!

#2 - The HOKEY King

Will this scene be repeated?

The coronation of Mike as the HOKEY king is a graphic reminder to us all of the current bet between him and the Bag-man.

T-Bag will loose 20lbs by April 30, 2006.

Can the bag-man summon his inner strength and overcome his cola habit thereby reducing his daily caloric intake?

Will Mike move the plaque for the next picture?

Stay tuned.

#1 - Mario Lemiuex will not finish this NHL season

Mike and T-bag bet that Mario Lemiuex will not finish this NHL season, or something to that effect. Mike Bet T-bag a breakfast or something or other. Well, the magnificant one retired last week. No more 66!

Mike is at home with a bad back but he still managed to phone T-bag up at work and demand his free BAB (Big-Ass Breakfast).

Teabag must pay up!

Why Does This Blog Exist?

Good question, which will be explained below.

Some time ago there came a realization that our group discussions often came to an unresloved conclusion (very often meaningless) which left many of our members with feelings of emptiness. In an effort to address those feelings, this blog will be the official log of any arrangments made to settle disputes involving discussions that ended with the words "you wanna bet!".

On a historical note, the name for this blog is a reference to episode 44 of the cartoon "The Flintstones" otherwise known as "The Gambler" episode. In that episode everytime Fred heard the word bet his excitement level would slowly build to an orgasmic crescendo where he would scream out the words "bet..bbbb...bet bet bet". Interestingly enough as a result, Arnold the paper boy was the recipient of most of the Flintstone's furniture which he used to spiff up his clubhouse. MF is our Arnold and so far DC is our Fred. Word has it that the "clubhouse" is near the "creek" somewhere.
