I am so glad I don’t bet on sports.
Speak for yourself.
Wahrheit went 4-0.
I still can’t believe you told people we could win them money last week. Now everyone can see you can’t make good judgments. You’re the kind of guy that would choose Velma over Daphne. We can’t trust someone like that.
Whuh? You mean from Scooby Doo?
Yar, if someone asked you which one you’d rather date, and for normal people (ie, not you) Velma’s just too, well, ugly.
Look, this blog is weird enough without getting into conversations about which cartoon characters are cuter.
I like that Esurance chick.
OK, fine! You’re a cartoon, it makes sense for you! It doesn’t for me!
*Sigh* I guess you’re going to want my picks for next week?
By tomorrow night, if you can.
As long as you don’t lord it over me if I go 0-4 next week.
Sure thing.
You really wouldn’t choose Velma, would you?
Er…yeah…probably I would.
Seriously? *Blanches* OK, that makes things easy…my picks for next week are the opposite of yours.
I like that Esurance chick.
Yeah, me too. I had a dream the other night about and animatronic Disney princess, but its probably best kept between my wife and I.
This is why I wait and make my picks after the games end.
The NCAA hoops tournament is easy. Pick 100% upsets. Then decades later you (like me) can say stuff like – “Oh yeah, Richmond over Indiana? I saw that coming. I nailed that one.”
@gorckat: I think this is the second time you’ve given us a peek at some salacious event, and left the most titillating stuff in the dark. It’s agony, man.
@Derek: Of course, there’s the flip side “Why the heck did you choose Northern South Dakota State over UNC?”
Hi, back from vacation (else I would have had some comments on previous tasty posts) and since I am flattered to be mentioned in the title of a post at this most excellent of blogs, I’ll lay it on the line for next weekend–
Green Bay, Giants, Indianapolis, New England.
If I fall back to earth at 1-3 or something you’ll all be entitled to drop me back into the tiny pond from whence I came…
Oh yeah, one more thing, I thought Velma was the brickhouse, baby, and when I found out she was a lesbian the whole time it made it even more…interesting.
@Wahrheit: Thanks for the picks. I’ll post them along with the other “experts” here later on.
Velma was lesbian? I’ve heard jokes and rumors, but never heard that from “the source” (Hanna-Barbera, I think). Maybe I’m just behind.
When Fred split up the group, it was always the same: Daphne and Velma with me, Shaggy and Scooby that way. Of course, you can’t blame him, but you’d figure Shaggy might have protested at some point (I mean, for some other reason than being a coward).
