    So BonesJones said "I bet you Orlando will be at least 8 games below .500 by the All Star break." I said okay for $100 and then he back tracked and made it 4 games below .500. We were both way off being that they are now 21 games below .500. You shouldn't have back tracked, Bones!! You'd be $100 richer now!

    Don't bet with @HCP. He doesn't pay!

    I think a Mod should change KingSpeed's name to KingDraymodGreenSpeed

    Fact still remains. Orlando Sucks!
    Not the city. The team.
    I really like Epcot Center.

    I'm confused. Was he saying they'd ONLY be 4 games below, and thus loses the bet? or that they'd be AT LEAST 4 games under .500, and thus win the bet?

    Or did you both not agree to the bet?

    When you have nearly 50,000 Jinx messages you can start threads like this also.

    Nah, if your into the theme parks, it’s heaven. But the actual city is trash. Feels like a giant strip mall. Cool little section of restaurants for a few blocks, but that’s it. Hot and muggy. No ocean around.

    Yeah.... it doesn't sound like Bones said they'd be "EXACTLY 4 games under .500"

    Kingspeed has a habit of manufacturing bets that were never actually agreed on.

    With that said if you make a bet on an internet forum you should never actually expect to get paid and definitely shouldn't make a public spectacle of it.

    He said at least 4 so he would've won the bet. But I wanted to stay at 8 and he wouldn't go for it. If he had, he would've won.

    Again, if he had taken his original bet, he would've won. I was holding him to that bet and wouldn't take his "at least 4 games" bet and so he missed out.

    BonesJones DIDN'T ultimately agree to his own bet so no bet occurred. If he stuck to his original bet, I would've taken it and he would've won.
