View Full Version : Monfort: Care to make a wager with the Devil?


Satan
10-27-2000, 02:11 AM
No, not for your soul. For your sig!

Taking a cue from another *ahem* friendly wager placed elsewhere, I am laying down the gauntlet.

My Giants will destroy your Iggles this weekend in Giants Stadium, just like we beat you in your own house.

I am on a roll against you, pal: I kicked your ass last week in The Teeming Minions Fantasy Football League (with two positions open, I must add!) and, of course, my beloved Yankees thwarted your evil thoughts by winning yet ANOTHER World Series, in a battle of your two worst nightmare teams.

So, let's have this game be the icing on my cake of defeating you, eh Cheesesteak breath?

Now then, the stakes: The winner will write a sig file for the loser. The loser must use this sig file for 100 posts. Anything within the SDMB rules can be in this sig file, and it has to be reasonable length - if a Moderator says it is too long, it's too long.

So how about it, tough guy? You in?

Don't do it, Montfort!! Oh, this can only end badly...

(Satan, a dollar says he's sleeping or something.)

Satan

The game isn't until Sunday, dearie. If he's sleeping THAT long, he's got worse problems than my wager... :)

Yep. I know. I'm just saying that you probably won't get a response from him until sometime after the sun comes up. :)

I'll bet with you, Satan! I... wait a minute...

Sig lines?!? I thought that said "sex lives"...

Can't imagine what gave Satan this idea..... ;)

(And according to Yahoo Messenger, Montfort is in fact still asleep.)

Montfort
10-27-2000, 09:46 AM
Okay, beelezebub, you're on. The Eagles will beat the Giants, straight up (no point spread -- although I'm sure it'd only help me -- I'm that confident), on Sunday.

I can't wait to see a sig that says something like...


Yer pal,
Satan (http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=43890)

TIME ELAPSED SINCE THE EAGLES WHIPPED THE GIANTS:
Three months, four days, 5 hours, 40 minutes and 56 seconds.
8049 cigarettes not smoked, saving $1,006.18.
Extra time acknowledging Montfort's football prognisticating supremacy: Three months, four days, 5 hours, 40 minutes and 56 seconds.
I'm gonna have to think of something for that "cigarettes not smoked" line, but I'm sure I'll think of something ere Sunday 7:15pm. Of course, I'm open to advice, folks.

Remember, too, the last person to make a football-related bet with me. Whammo? How's Anniz doing? :)

(BTW, Satan, there are two ts in my name. Just not next to each other. And, I have no elephant books.)

Montfort
10-27-2000, 01:16 PM
The sig is for one hundred posts, not one hundred days.

So, I'll have to revise the rules:

No test posts (except to test out your new sig, of course)
No post padding

There's no cheesesteak on my breath, either. Unless it's a tofu cheesesteak.

Gazoo
10-27-2000, 01:32 PM
Montfort - Perhaps instead of the # of cigarettes line, you should change it to "Number of Posts in which I have Praised Montfort's football knowledge supremacy." Or something to that effect.

Go IGGLES!!!

Anniz
10-27-2000, 02:49 PM
Go Eagles, goooooooooo!!!!
I hope you don't lose your sig MOntfort:):)

Satan
10-27-2000, 02:54 PM
New rules? Trust me - I would not change my posting style for any wager, mustard-on-pretzel face.

Besides, this is not a wager that I plan on losing...

As for you Gazoo, I am already smiting you. Don't push your luck, Jimmy The Geek!

Now I really hope I win, just to get rid of that obnoxious (but typical New Yawkah) addition to you sig you added today.

Imagine how obnoxious it'll look as your sig! :D

Well, I guess it's good then that I don't need to have a vivid imagination in order to think about your sig being under my name. After all, it's rather shallow and immature.

I don't need a critical review here, Monty!

I said that I already heard your music...

Hey, you started with the criticism.

And, that music is the past now.

I say you bet Satan starting up smoking again. It only seems fair.

I'm an ex-smoker myself, and I wouldn't want anyone to start smoking.

Although, he might do it, voluntarily, after he realises that the Eagles will beat the Giants.

Satan
10-27-2000, 06:50 PM
Trust me... With prognosticating skills like that, it's obvious you MUST be smoking SOMETHING!

"'tis not for gravity to play

--Twelfth Night, Act 3, Scene iv

I have to admit I'm rooting for Satan... :eek:

(...only because I picked the Giants in my football pool)

Montfort
10-29-2000, 04:12 PM
Five minutes left in the second quarter, it's a defensive battle. 7-0 Giants.

Eagles are starting to warm up on offense, though. I'm still confident.

Enderw24
10-29-2000, 04:26 PM
Would you guys keep it down? I'm trying to concentrate on the Chiefs here.

Falcon
10-29-2000, 05:23 PM
Midway through the 3rd quarter, it's 14-0 Giants.

Hopefully Philly will pull it off....

Silo
10-29-2000, 05:41 PM
Early 4th quarter
Giants 17 - Eagles 0

I think it's safe to say Satan already won!

All bolded please, and as follows:

After spending my weekend fellating every member of the NY Giants (who are far superior to the Iggles) and world champion Yankees, I can say with absolute certainty that their penises are all much larger than mine. But my mom says Satan's is the biggest of them all!

T'was a pleasure watching your team be humiliated yet again, Monty! And I shall remember this every time I see a ost of yours for some time! :D

Also, thanks to Drain Bead for major contributions (okay, almost all of it) to the sig. Remind me never to get in a flame war or lose a bat to her! :)

WOOO!! Way to go GIANTS!!!!

Yeah, it does. Since you don't use the standard sig function, if I had won the bet, yours would've been there for eternity. Mine, however, will disappear once I finish posting 96 or so more times.
