Russ - Want to bet on the hockey game?

I saw you in OT flapping your gums (at your age I doubt you have teeth) about the gold medal game on Sunday. want to bet 100 SETI WU's on the outcome? I say Canada is going to win!

Michael
 
Lets see how this adds up:

UNITED STATES 8, BELARUS 1
CANADA 3, BELARUS 1

UNITED STATES 6, FINLAND 0
CANADA 2, FINLAND 1
FINLAND 8, BELARUS 1

UNITED STATES 5, GERMANY 0
CANADA 3, GERMANY 2

So now that CANADA beats the weakest team in the Olympics like everyone else beat them you think they are on par? I don't know, its tempting....

Shux,

Canada actually beat Belarus 7 to 1.

That makes little difference, though.

I propose that we bet 100 Seti WU's on the outcome, much like Michael's challenge to Russ.. If Canada wins, which they will, you crunch 100 WU's for me. If by some miracle the US team wins, I'll crunch 100 WU's for you.

Whaddya say? 😎
 
Well I'm willing to up that bet, as a true believer in my home team. 😀

I'll wager 500 workunits that Canada is going to defeat the American team.

Any takers? PM me if you're game 😉

PS: Having a huge party at my place Sunday afternoon. Anyone in Montreal is welcome to join me....we're up to 42 people now!! 😀
 
MaxSiren,

I grew up in Montreal (Brossard, actually), but I live in California now so I'll have to skip the party at your place. I am watching the game, though!

My almost 5-year old daughter is a hoot. She told me during the US-Canada women's final that she can't lose because she's 1/2 of each.

MaxSiren- YGPM😉

Proud to be an American! [EDIT](American = does not know how to spell or use english correctly ask anyone from England and they will confirm this😉)
 
Why would any of us USA'ers be upset if Canada took the Gold? I remember when my little sister won a Spelling Bee. I was very proud of her. I would feel the same toward Canada...... 🙂
 
Ouch!! JimMc, that was harsh.... :Q

But remember, who are the only people to successfully burn down the US capitol? 😉


I guess we were rebelling...
 
Jim,

Nice to see you mentally preparing the rationalization for your defeat. I'm glad you've figured out a way to make it hurt a lot less.

<<who are the only people to successfully burn down the US capitol?>>

What?? That was you guys? We've been wondering where to send the bill. So we should send it to the attention of President of Canada, in Montreal, Toronto?





<<Nice to see you mentally preparing the rationalization for your defeat. I'm glad you've figured out a way to make it hurt a lot less.>>

Well, it's really not fair, Canada wins either way. I suspect all of our players are Canadian emigrees. You know, the only ones from up there that could pass the entrance exam at the border.....



Joking aside, I don't know squat about hockey, but I've never allowed my ignorance to get in the way of talking smack 😛. I did watch the US/Russia game, and it seems hard to believe anyone could beat the team that played the first two periods. But I suspect Canada may beat the team 7-0 that played the last period.

Good luck to both sides! 😀
 
Glad to see hockey smack being talked here in DC.

I'd be willing to wager 100 WUs that the US team will be Canada (that's about three days production for me).

Any takers?

 
Evilwobbles - I'll take that bet!

I won't be around for most of the day but we can work out the specifics later today if you want....

100 WU's will be really nice 🙂
 


<< I'd be willing to wager 100 WUs that the US team will be Canada (that's about three days production for me). >>



So will they be playing with themselves.😉 Sorry I have to pick on others errors because mine were picked on also.😛
 
Just wanted to announce that Baldy took me up on that 500WU wager. 😀

So, when Canada wins, he'll be crunching for me for quite some time... :Q


Baldy, where do I send you my user_info file? 😉
 
What a dilema! My heritage is French Canadian, but am living and breathing the Detroit Red Wings for god knows how long since growing up a Michigander, now I'm stuck in Okielahoma USA... ahh heck, GO CANADA!!!!!!! 😎😎




Will be a very good game, but USA will win....... 🙁
 
Maxsiren- I just noticed that after you crunch those 500WUs for me I will have passed you in the standings (also counting my own production during that time of course).😛 Oh and BTW you can get my user_info.sah file from your SetiQ folder it keeps copies for each user.😉
 


<< MaxSiren- YGPM😉

I'll confirm this! From across the pond in the UK 🙂
