    Honestly, I still don't know what you're trying to argue.

    Easiest way I can think of solving this is this....If you're that confident why don't we just make a simple wager? If LA/Dame get voted as starters, I pay up. (We can decide what later) If not, you do. Put your money where your mouth is.

    I said it's possible, didn't say guaranteed. You know like "hey if we all vote together we can really get them in". Then you come huffing and puffing like our votes don't mean shit and no one else will vote so why give a shit.

    Now you want to make a wager? What odds you gonna give me?

    You're the one pushing for them to get in. You tell me.

    6-1 for one player. 10-1 for both.

    I bet $100

    If one player makes it in, I get $600. If both, then I get $1000

    If I win, I'm using your money to buy 100 level tickets for you and your wife to sit at the playoff game!

    Those would be impossible to even give. Probably something like 3,000/1

    I'd like to make an alternate suggestion. Let's not vote for any Blazer. Guys like Damian and LA feed off not getting the respect they deserve. They only get a few votes for starting in the All Star game, and they are incentivized to prove the entire country wrong.

    I would be licking my chops for a chance to see that.

    EDIT: It's a possibility too! Well, hopefully.
