So he welched on a bet. Why would someone make such a dumb bet?

What was the bet that he lost?

Thats one for the books. " Book 'em Danno".

Thanks .

Really. It seems you must have gotten beat pretty bad by Ward.

Stanford is at 135.5 now . Does anyone know if all the team points were deducted from the DQ/? I looked at score shortly after match and team score was 135. It doesn't appear the points were deducted.

Agreed . Maybe he will figure it out and be sincere. You only get so many chances in life before you burn down all your bridges.

I had not looked through the whole thread . I didn't see that there was an actual list of the voters. I was just messing with Weehawken by saying other teams would encourage Iowa to take in the Ferrari Clan.

At least 100 of the yes's are from other schools. They really think the Ferrari's would be a great fit for Iowa.

I'm sure that other schools thought about it. About 2 seconds and said no. The risk would be to great for the amount of damage they would incur.

I agree. Unacceptable.

It would have been a great time to come forth with an apology in a live video setting. He could have said," I have done a lot of stupid things in the last few years of which I am not proud of and I apologize for. But what I did yesterday was incredibly stupid and immature. I would like to sincerely apologize for my actions" Then he could go on a humbly explain his plan to be a better person .

He also has the Queen song playing in the background. But he changed the lyrics slightly to I am the champion of the world.

He no longer is a billionaire. I just checked Forbes and they have him at 880 million now . One of his main stocks plummeted 31 precent since September. Ouch!! He was at 1.1 billion previously. What's the scoop on how he made his money?

You have your opinion and I have mine. It seems that there is a chance that you just like to argue. I could be wrong. So I will ask you one more time. Do you think Vivek is ready for the most powerful position in the entire world? That would be yes or no. You are not required to give any reason why.

I really believe you should have honored my request first. I'm a little offended.. Christy .NO!!!!!! Nikki .Not so Much. Ok, since there really aren't any other viable candidates, I will go with Desantis. 1. He has experience running a large state. 2. He is doing a good job. 3. He is a conservative. 3a. He has a good understanding of how screwed up Washington DC is 4. He has a good understanding of the Constitution. 5. He has a good understanding of Americas role and responsibility in World affairs. 6.He doesn't have as much baggage as Donald Trump 7. He has great respect for Military soldiers and their families. 8 He will pick Kristi Noem as his running mate. 9. He will beat Old Joe and kick his butt back to Delaware for good. Now I hope that is sufficient.

So do you honestly think Vivek is ready for the most powerful position in the entire world? If so, could you give a list of reasons why. Maybe only 4 or 5.

You can't be serious. Vivek does have the gift of gab just like any good salesman or politician. The problem is he doesn't have any history of accomplishing anything at the local, state or federal level. Maybe he should first be a Mayor or a Governor first. I think he would learn a lot. Politics is a different animal than being a CEO of a company.

True. Midlands used to be one hell of a tournament.

As easy as apple pie. You took the bait.

Nice win for him. I assume he is taking a grey shirt.

Who does Whalen wrestle for?

There were a lot of dairy farms where I lived in Ohio . They were able to survive. But most of the Dairy farms are gone now. Farming sure has changed the last 40 years.

The must have been a really difficult job at the time. How bad was it when you visited the communities. Can I ask what state you were in. How were the yields? Do you go back every year for harvest? I'm considering volunteering to work with Farm Rescue out of North Dakota. I will have to get up with some of the local farmers to get up to speed on the newer equipment.

In both of my statements I said a contributing factor. I'm sure you read that. They had an opportunity to help the agriculture community. Which i think would take precedent over punishing Russia. I'm sure you know Carters family were farmers but mostly raised peanuts which was not affected by the grain embargo. I'm curious, did the PBS documentary mention what the Carter administration should have done to advert the situation..
