Sports wagering/avatar bet thread....

    On another board it is quite common for members to place "avatar bets" on sporting events. My team wins? I pick your avatar for a set amount of time. Your team wins? You pick my avatar for a set amount of time. Usually the avatars selected are meant to torment or shame the person's rooting interest. Maybe a pick of someone from the opposing team holding up a championship trophy, maybe a gif/pic/meme that is derogatory against their favorite team or player. Never anything NWS, never anything directly poking fun at that person as an individual. But always something attempting to shame or torment them. :p


    So, I thought I would see if anyone here was interested. If so, we could use this thread to challenge each other.

    Since we have a couple of awful ( ;) ) Beaver fans here, and this week is the Civil War, I thought I would challenge both @ZombieSquirrel and @snowy to avatar bets. Since Oregon is heavily favored, I offer 2 weeks of my avatar against 1 week of theirs. If Oregon State wins, they each get to pick my avatar for two weeks (whoever responds first gets the first two weeks, the other gets the second two weeks). If Oregon wins, I get to select an avatar for them for one week.

    Yea or nay?


    Feel free to post up your avatar bets in the future. Maybe @grumpyoldman has a Lions bet, or @Chris Noyb has a Texans bet, anyone is welcome to play.

    Sorry, I don't gamble with the kami. The guy in my avatar is a god of calamity...Not something I want to mess with.

    Well, what's the point if I'm not optimistic about my team's chances? I'm not scared. I'm pessimistic. There's a difference.

    Sorry, but my KAOS avatar is sacred.

    Also I might have to use something pro-dallas cowgirls. NFW!

    I'd be in trouble if I did it for NFL games. My Bucs are chronically struggling anymore...
     
  8. Depends on the sport, I know nothing about US football, baseball, hockey. If you wanna go on rugby or footy I'm down.

  10. I probably would have done this had I seen it in time. I just work for the Beavers. Had I worked for the Ducks, I probably would be a duck fan. I'm not that attached to my avatar. It's perfect, and I can always change it back.

    I wish we would have challenged each other this weekend.
