Actually Whomp I was busy remodeling the bathroom Yesterday or I would have rolled it out.

My plan was to short half of my stack on each competitor. The winner would go up ~ 30 and the loser would drop 60+, thus being a guaranteed cover.

We will probably see this in the final anyway.

And after watching a portion of the game yesterday, I am just playing to wear out the the other guys.

Tell you what, Ill build a library with my winnings and name it after me, thus ensuring my robber baron ways are engraved for eternity. (Carnegie anyone?)

BCLG100 · 05-07-2006, 18:10

well y'see whomp ive no real idea what im doing with this game but yer boooooooooooo the french (no offence krys

Whomp · 05-07-2006, 18:11

Good plan Romeo. Robber baron! Boooo!!!

Tubby Rower · 05-07-2006, 18:15

that would have worked, but if Portugal's anti-soccer happens to win the game, then you'll have to do better than that, because I plan to fully short the winner of this match, mainly because Italy is so skilled at diving that no one can stop them
