Don't you mean is that all I want to give away?

Bruins will only win on a miracle from the football gods! (And Mora's done nothing to appease them football gods his entire career, that's for sure!) The best shot of a Mora led Bruins squad beating Petersen's Dawgs this year in Seattle after a bye week went out the door with a loss in the desert last week.

No chance of sneaking up on the sleeping giant, Pete's team of coaches and entire squad will be the poster child for Red Bull Saturday, wide awake!

Okay, I put it up on the exchange for you to accept.
Not true, they just need to win to take the North. Even a close win doesn't end your chances for the Playoff too, might tarnish it a bit, but UW will still be in the hunt with one loss.

I'd go $1,000 with a 10pt spread, but $500 SU is fine.

What I meant by win by a large margin is they still have to go to Stanford on a friday night game, play a tough Utah defense, and face the always unpredictable WSU offense before the end of the year. If they can't come out after a loss and a bye week and dominate, I give them really no chance at winning out the rest of that slate.

I was willing to hand over a max $500 vCash with a SU bet, just because I didn't want the the bad juju in the WS due to dropping Vin from avi, then you go and muck it up with an offer of a real bet, but you want to weasel on 8 points?

What, no faith in your team at home? I bet you took UW on the pickem!

Granted we have it at 17.5, but even the line is moving in your favor now at 18 and you only want to only give up 10?

Just fucking around Wizzers! Keep your 10 points, and my offer of some free vCash!

Just FREAKIN' wonderful... as if SC doesn't have enough injuries on the "D" already.

Now 'off we go' to ArizSt. Hope Helton has his own 'plane ticket' (just in case)....

I don't think you should have a say in it...

I vote you use this one until Wally rises...

UCLA gives up right around 300 rushing yards a game. How much you want to bet that idiot Jonathan Smith has Browning throw against them. It's not rocket science ... just have Browning hand the ball off to the RB's ... but will it happen.

I liked that photo @OregonDucks posted of the guy sawing down the miniature tree.

Maybe I was wrong about Mora and the football gods, this has got to be worth something?

UCLA’s Jim Mora ‘honored’ to make contribution to Don James statue

Probably not a win tomorrow, but something? Maybe some good health the rest of the way out? Been hit hard this year, hell last week alone!

BTW - It's actually tonight at 5pm PST. (That's yesterday's tweet). I won't be looking for it b/c that the same time as the Dodgers game!!

Good story, loved reading his widow Carol James' comments.

UW commissioned Chicago-based artist Lou Cella, who also sculpted the statues of Ken Griffey Jr. and Dave Niehaus at Safeco Field. Cella visited Carol at her winter home in Palm Desert, Calif. In August, Kelly flew with Carol to Chicago to give the final approval of the clay version of the statue.

“We walked in the door and it was just jaw-dropping how good it was,” Kelly said. “I couldn’t believe it. It was like he was standing there.”’

Said Carol: “I couldn’t believe he caught him so well. I was just overwhelmed. I turned around and gave (Cella) a big hug.”

James was respected and feared by his players and opponents alike. There was a look — The Look — one did not want to receive from the coach.

“And you know what, (Cella) caught The Look,” Carol said. “It’ll be fun to see if they feel same way.”
How Don James’ statue came to be: Four years, $150,000 and finally finding ‘The Look’

WEAR IT WITH PRIDE EVEN THO THE BOY DROPPED TWO ON RUG LAST NITE….sigh.

 

[Vitamike]

Yeah, but it's that last one though, you know what I mean brother???

It's why I suggested he put up something more fitting, having Nall's up there sort of fly's in the face of your avi bet win, don't you think?

(I'm @SUBuddha he picked it without malice, and likely b/c it was an easy grab)

 

[mrwallace2ku]

we failed to finish and win the game, i see no need for @SUBuddha not to do the same.


it therefore rendered…

that said avi bet is no longer valid or expected.

That's being a little harsh, you had what 19 points dogs and lost by a freak TO and a single point?

meh, your call.

I just wouldn't want him to sport the guy who handed the outright win seemingly & eventually away....

 

[mrwallace2ku]

I just wouldn't want him to sport the guy how handed the outright win over...

i have no coach

i have no QB

i have no PAC wins



but i do support those kids that played with heart last night. Hell, i only wished for a good ballgame and got one.


the sic thing is after we lost i switched over to the blazer game and watched a dagger stuck in their heart on the last shot of that game. incredible night of "coulda, woulda…shoulda.".


ONWERDZ! to the only game that counts this year, for me anywhose…@ the Autzen Palace of Shame.

I like Buddha, he is a great guy and his team just seems to find a way to win games. Last year the Bruins had a heart break loss of their own against Stanford that was the first of a series of in conference heart break losses, so I feel you wallace.

I say this because I was rooting for you guys and at the end there when furd tried again and again to get the 2 point conversion when a 1 pointer would likely do, I was rooting for the improbable pick 2! That would have been awesome! Going from a 1 point loss to a 1 point win.

Can't blame a dog for trying to find some value can you? I'd have gone $1k at 18 points. Still would put up $500 more at that. I expect their execution will be a lot better than their last game and unfortunately will sour Mora's return to Montlake. Going to be an emotional day for him as well either way. Hell, he played for Don James and started his coaching career under him so I wonder if he pitched in on his statue.

 

[SUBuddha]

@mrwallace2ku I plan to honor the bet. I grabbed this image because you have it. No malice intended. I was so busy with the kids I did not even see who fumbled the ball. Another image is fine send it if this one bothers you.

 

[Vitamike]

Wonder no more...

You know Wally would never say it does, even if it did...

If you're gonna just pick it out yourself, just go with something like this and not sport the player who unlikely handed Stanford the game on a silver platter...

That or switch it back to your own like he suggested...

 

[WizardHawk]

Mora has never lost to his alma mater. That shit needs to change tomorrow.

I am still wondering why the Nall image is an insult. Wallace is still wearing it.
