It’s no secret that I adore Scotticher…she’s a bright, beautiful woman.
…so it makes me feel a little guilty to be taking advantage of her and her blind devotion to her beloved Seattle Mariners. Granted, the M’s are doing miraculously well this season, especially in light of the players they lost during the off season.
But Scotti has issued a challenge to me: The Mariners will sweep the Anaheim Angels in their upcoming series in Seattle or she owes me…well, that’ll be between us.
Will the M’s beat the Halos? No doubt. 2 out of 3? Maybe. But sweep? Come on. Either she had her head shaved a little too close on Jay Buehner Day or she’s been hit in the head once too often with a fungo. Yeah, okay, the M’s are good, but they ain’t playin’ the Devil Rays, fer crissakes.
Am I evil for taking advantage of Scotti’s innocence? Or am I being snookered?
I would say that since you don’t know how to spell Buhner, you probably aren’t in a good enough position to be evaluating the Mariners’ chances of doing anything.
Ohhhhh, see ** poohpah, ** SHE is bright, beautiful AND quite witty too!! You should be pleased to lose a bet to her! Would you be willing to teach her how to post pictures, so that she can then teach me???
I expected better from you. I mean really, didn’t I hide you when you asked me to? Didn’t I tell you you are beautiful? Didn’t I…well, I am just shocked. Shocked and disappointed.
I mean, it is not as if EITHER the A’s or the Angel’s have a prayer of catching my M’s. I am trying to be fair here, but really…and I had already bought you your very OWN M’s hat for Christmas. Well, I may just give it to you anyway.
[sub] Except for the fact that what you do with it may not be exactly what I had in mind![/sub]
Scotti, you hid me by putting a Mariner’s cap on my head! Then you taped a sign on my back! (or did that come first? no matter, either way it was Mean )
Shocked and disappointed, my foot!
[sub]of course I do notice that your beloved M’s are down by 6 runs in the 7th. Hmmm, are you going to lose your bet on the very first night? :: flees ::
