You haven't had a 90% boast thrown in your face for a year. I offered needed adjustments after each set. I ain't trying to steal from Boogie like in your haha knob polish post above. I swear, a lot of foosers could be some of the top sticks in the Metro and couldn't get any action because they are clueless when it comes to gambling.

For reals, a 90% boast needs to be backed by a 40-60% handicap. World Beater Shane Van Boening gave AA(top semi in foos) Kiko the 4 out in 9-ball=66%, and won $3000.

It's called gambling for a reason. Each player should have a 50% chance of winning in the perfect gamble to watch. Save the chest thumping for locals but be careful of a boast that you can't back on a gamble, if you want my money. If you want to flat out steal from me, fuck you, you're a thief as far as I'm concerned. Go find another sucka for your sucker bet.

We've had nothing but boasts thrown in our faces for years and Boogie amongst others calls BS, even in that 1% "chest thumping" incident by a certain "horse". Now get back to your "knob polishing" Spin Sweater.

Spike offered me the action Chester! Or should I say PussyCat? Or Country Club PussyCat?

edit: hmmmm? I think Chester just threw a all time 99% boast up there. The Jedi just said he'd beat Boogie.

Yo Spike, I'll still take 2 pts and the 1st drop and willing to lose $300, no more than that. Adjustments as needed after each set.

BTW Chester, in order to polish a knob, you have to drop their quote, then polish the knob as you do with Spike.

A tiny town quote : More lies...and the beat goes on.

A jedi quote : More lies down...while the true beat goes on.


Here tiny town, ill enlighten you on the coin of true or fault's.

The tail side of the coin of lies, no one wants to know it, but when revealed,
everyone want's to hear it !

The head side of the coin of truth, everyone wants to know it, but when revealed, no one wants to hear it !

To assume a lie when truth is given, becomes worse than the assumed lie..

To assume is the mother load of all fuck up's

Did you read this post? It basically reads "Sheri, even though you were at the tourney, ran the charts all the way through the end, looked over the results, and posted them; I am clearly right and you are wrong", because your post started out with "Correction", like you had all of the facts. You could've posted something like "I thought I got 3rd, what am I missing"?, but you didn't, instead you assumed.....
What was it that somebody just said about assume.....hmmmmm.

Exactly Slice..that is also the assumption what I was referring to on the side.

But !... none the less, I did not lie. Because what I believed was the truth. Since he was not seen in the finals, standard logic would imply that Mark was out and went home, giving reason of my post. Who loses K.S. then gives up to go home?....WHO NORMALLY DOES THAT?

I was not given the truth, so respectfully, I mentioned no lie.;-)

Yeah you didn't lie, I'll give you that, but Sheri did provide the truth with her results post and you basically called her a liar. It's okay if you say I messed up, my bad. Sorry.

Ok Walter. Miller used to talk about kicking my ass on the table all the time boasting if you will. We played he beat me handily. So I offer my same bet to Dave as I did to Boogie. 5 point spot in a game to 5 we can play whatever series number he wants and he can have drop. $1000 lets do this!

There is a thief among us. I'll wait until the Jedi says what he can spot you. I don't think I've ever seen you play singles Brad. I like to wager, I don't like to steal or be stolen from. You playing the Jedi even, would be stealing.

This would be like saying." My turtle escaped yesterday, so im giving him a head start today. Hes almost made it to the front door..


But I guess if I was to gamble with you brad O. Nothing wrong with a 2point and a drop handicap for you, but a grand is a no go. With that kind of money on the line, might as well have strippers walking around the table with numbers on signs showing what ball it is in each game, while spectators stuff dollar bills in the waist line..

Oh my gosh this is the dumbest shit ever on here. What is the point of handicapping? To make the result a toss up! Who benefits from that? Lucky gamblers? We're the players, so we don't need any handicaps in trying to see the order of the foos chain.

Jedi challenges Baller - Baller disappears
Boogie challenges Jedi - Jedi disappears

So now we have the order. Boogie>Jedi>Baller and no one even has to play a match.

X

PS - lol @ Boogie's post with all the handicaps necessary for Walter to feel comfy betting on who is better.


That is precisely the reason for handicapping Scott. To prevent stealing. I'm not concerned about the foosball pecking order on a gamble. I've seen enough of that at tournies where newbies are just donaters. Just because it's always been done that way, doesn't make it right or fair. Pool has been around for sure since since the 19th century, they handicap some tournaments which higher ranking players glady accept, since there is a better chance at bigger money.

And I think your reply to me is some of the dumbest shit I've ever read on this board. There was good reason why I asked Pops for 1pt for you against Ditto, I'm glad he refused because you needed more then that and I would have been out a hundred bucks that night. Fuck the pecking order, that is established in the handicap. If you forget that night with selective memory like your loss against the Jedi at Eck's, ask Ditto or Pops.

Oh come on slice REALLY, making or stating a correction does not imply someone else is or was lieing. I was not inwardly thinking that Sheri was either. But of course you and others would conclude that of me..After all,most on this forum would rather think the worst of me,twisting and adding to what isn't...

But in all honesty, Sheri has a couple of times before posted the wrong results, it doesn't make her a lier, it would just be a mistake, just as it was my mistake for logically thinking I got third because I played Roger, hes out..I play Ross, im out, and Ross plays Daniel, Ross out, Daniel wins, I can see why I posted the results the way I did..makes sense to me..

Oh..and get off me about this so called" its ok if you say I messed up, my bad, SORRY kind of story. Who does that, do you?. The only one ive ever heard say
anything in that department would be Sheri.

All I did was post it the way I was physically involved with it.. next thing you know the peanuts turn it into a 5 ring CIRCUS with unicorn's, and pink elephants..oops my bad SORRY, FLYING pink Elephant's


Whats next, blackmailing the innocent?

Its a good thing im not a foosball celebrity..cough hack cough!

If you read my post you may notice I addressed my mistake openly, but im not going to say sorry for my results post, because theres nothing for me to be sorry for..

Look Christian, just because your first name is Christian, doesn't make you one. Or just because your avatar is a picture of jesus, doesn't mean he lives within you.. Remember this of what he said. And I dont need to quote a numbered verse and book here..

"And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye?
"Or how can you say to your brother. ' Let me remove the speck from your eye'; and look, a plank is in your own eye?
Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brothers eye.

Yeah I know its ok to say, oops I messed up, my bad, so so Sorry... But only when it is really warranted. I never did or said anything that would allow me to think or believe I needed to rectify anything with a opps my bad, sorry reply statment... And besides, if im wrong about something really dire of hurting someone because of what I said, did to someone, or what I think. Then most likely 9 times out of 10, im going to be the first to point out and admittedly say I was in the wrong , my bad, and even though the word" SORRY" is just a sorry over rated word to use in reflect of showing shame. People use the term sorry to loosely these days... "As the woman rolls her groceries in a cart in front of you in the bread
isle, as she says "Sorry" for getting in the way for 1 second.. as you really didn't even notice her as she walked by, because your to much in thought on what kind of bread to get. It would be like saying to her, oops sorry, I didnt notice you walking by!

Ummm... I agree with the both of you...But Sweater, foosball is not like the odds of pool or baseball. X is right about the even start at zero that has always been the normal lay out of the game, after all, we play to win matches to move up in the brackets, and not to play for cash in the end of every match. theres way to much room for error to just getting, as we all know what is called hacked and slopped out on any given game... And X is right again, that we are the players, so we dont need handicapped matches to determine the food chain..

And yet X, Sweater wasnt discrediting the ever changing food chain in the foos scene. Sweater was giving a reasonable gambling format that is sensible enough for anyone In any rank to gamble with an even odd to win against a higher ranked player. Making it more compatible to gamble on the table without someone thumping their chest like, Im a Pro-Master and im going to wipe you off the table, Well..for the most part, if your not Tony Spree, or Robbie the Champ, your not going to play Tarzan if the lions have the jump on swinging on the vines too..

For Sweater, its about the civil gamble without the Guerillas playing the drums on their chest.

For the players, its about who can and cannot beat you on an even scale to 5 to win two or three games.
Its not how you start or play the game, its about whether you win or lose against whomever your playing against. Money matches, or tournament matches. Foosball is all about the win, money or not!
