Pretty much sums up my take. I don't always agree with him, but damn it's going to suck not having his often unique perspectives on the WS and offseason.
That you guys trusted him to control the majority of the $5000 to gamble with is really on y'all, and is also the best part. :-)
That and thinking Alex smith in 10% of the lineups was solid strategy- "you know... spreadsheets and all show the bears suck at defending QB's"...forget the fact that you guys actually watch the guy play and watch the coach call shit play after shitty play. Everyone of us here knows that if the cheifs were down 7 with 4 minutes to go, Andy and Alex would still try to orchestrate an 8 minute drive. How was playing the bears going to change that stupidity?
Hootie should not be banned, this was awesome to follow and better than anyone watching from the sidelines could've hoped for. Keep up the good work, Hootie...
This is hilarious. So glad I left that thing alone. I was about to hit send on PayPal when something told me that it was a bad idea. Hooray for gut instinct.

I think you mean "common sense" when a group that can't even agree on who is going to put the lineups in thinks they are going to be able to outsmart all the professionals who run this trade.
This is unfortunate to see. I hate seeing this stuff go "real life" like it has, including people's money and personal attacks. It's also too bad that a significant number of us enjoy seeing the drama, encouraging more of it.

Damn. I feel for the people involved. I hope everyone wins their money back and then some. I just can't understand how one guy could feel so empowered with that much on the line from multiple people to treat it all as his own.
