Kosar....you really are an angry person aren't you. Were you left on a doorstep as a youngster? Not bashing, just see nothing positive out of your keyboard ever. :cursin:

Just a difference of opinion, and welcher is as strong a slander as you can make on gambling board.
Good luck to the beloved!!

How could you ever forget? Aces Gold, an internet pissing contest/bet, AND Neemer offering to act as the go-between. LMFAO!!! :mj07:
PS I don't mean to laugh at all who were stiffed by Aces. The thought of that book just makes me roll my eyes still.
The best part of the "classic MJ thread" is Jack's closing remark which summed things up quite aptly....
"Thanks for nothing"
"Thanks for nothing"

lol- that guy was great! Then he started his own forum and had about 3 posters. One of which was 'Gold Cup Sports', who released his 'Chicago Underground' picks exclusively over there. It was brutal. He literally was hitting around 25% over 400 plays or so when they pulled the plug. I felt bad for the guy.

wasn't goldcupsports the s.p. expert on all Wichita State games? Seems to ring a bell to me?

BobbyBlue chip-always has a negative thing to say about everyone....I can just imagine him in his studio apartment/trailer, mad at the world-he only has to dial up Mj's to take out his pent up aggression. Probably has a bad blue collar job, is overweight, missing at least 3 teeth and drives a Ford pick-up............I have never-ever heard him say anything slightly useful around here.......sad really....

If Kosar can somehow manage to have these threads deleted, he will probably be in touch...........
I have no dog in this fight, but it seems to me if Nollan Dalla was such a loser and the Chicago underground was so bad, why would we not invite these guys back with open arms and fade them. It seems there are a lot of guys complaining about bad info they got from Nollan. If he was so bad, I would think going against him would be easy money. If you would have faded Sebastian and Brandon lane in the service forums this year, you would have made money.
i started fading that guy and made money....the point is, his posts were completely wrong, and he touted halftime plays (after the fact) that were never posted prior to the game......
plus...i always love 3 page pre game analysis of a game on a dog getting 7 and what a great bet that is.....then that dog happens to be losing by 3 at halftime and this guy hedges the other way, wins and says he made money on the game?????......
WHAT WAS THE POINT OF YOUR PRE GAME ANALYSIS?????
AND IF YOU WERE SO CONFIDENT OF THAT BET WHY DID YOU HEDGE WHEN COVERING AT HALF??????

In all honesty I had a very small offshore account with money bet only on Nick Douglas fades...in a full 9 month period i was like 62% fading all his picks......then he stopped posting...damn it
kosar is this the way it went down ?
About three months ago, some discussion began about the possibility of holding a MadJacks football party the first week of the regular season. It was to be held at the ESPN Zone in Times Square in NYC. There was marginal interest from MJS readers and no one seemed to be willing to commit to the event. So, in the interest of trying to get things rolling Jack and I both announced we were both going to attend no matter how many were going to show up (at the time, we fully intended to drive to NYC, which we hoped might encourage others to do the same). I further went on to say that I expected OVER 20 people to attend and also issued a "challenge" that I'd bet $500 that we would get 20+ people in attendance.
The thread died out over the next few weeks and at the time I was in Las Vegas most of the month of August. While in Las Vegas, I didn't follow the Message Forum closely (browsing it no more than a couple of times each week).
When I returned back to the East Coast, I got an e-mail from someone (maybe it was Kosar) asking if I intended to honor the wager. I went to the forum and saw that Kosar had accepted the challenge and taken the UNDER. I was a bit surprised by all this, because the party pretty much fell through (there was no party, unless a few people got together and we didn't hear about it).
About a week BEFORE the party was supposedly to take place, Kosar and I began an exchange of e-mails. Kosar thought he was entitled to be paid in full. I balked at the idea saying that we didn't agree to any terms or conditions in advance and there was no explicit understanding between us about what constituted a party or the attendees. Since -- as it turned out -- there was no MadJack's party in NYC, wagering on the attendance really wasn't possible. I thought it was analogous to a rainout in baseball. I further argued that to have a bet you have to have a 'handshake' -- not a physical one mind you -- but a clear understanding on the part of both parties who know exactly what the bet is. I argued to Kosar (in a private e-mail) that unless we agreed to the terms of the bet in advance, I could very well round up 21 people off the street, bring them to the party, and demand payment. There was never any discussion about whether spouses would be included, and so forth. The bottom line is -- Kosar thought he was entitled to be paid based on his post to the forum, while I insisted that to have a bet there has to be a clear understanding between both parties in advance to know the rules and conditions. I also argued that since this discussion was taking place before date of the so-called "party" (which never came about), either person would be entitled to not accepting the bet (in other words -- the discussion was taking place BEFORE the outcome was determined).
Nevertheless, I was surprised to see that Kosar thought he was entitled to be paid-off. I was also disappointed that he brought up my name in this thread. I'm not sure what is to be gained by discussing this any further, and I considered ignoring the thread when it was brought to my attention, but I did want to explain the nature of what Kosar was talking about.
