Let's make this final interesting (H)

Oh, this is the Lounge and not the Soccer Forum? I'm a little drunk :(

The loser has to openly support Manchester United for one calendar year.

I'd do ether. I think supporting Man U would be worse for us though. '99 for me, obviously, and for Sir_Didier_Drogba it would be horrible cheering for a domestic side that isn't Chelsea. Maybe it's not fair though, and much harsher on him, so I'd so Barca as well.

For the record, the final is on the 25th next year, so you could go against Man U or Barca if they make the final. Maybe a year and a week would be a better bet?

I don't think that'd be that hard, I say make it Barca.

That's because you live in Spain.

Every poll I've ever seen has shown that Man Utd are the world's most hated team. Especially as Sir_Didier_Drogba is English, and Shifty is an English speaker, I think Man Utd makes the most sense.

Speaking of bets, when I was at the pub trying to make bets with my mate the other day, I made what I thought was a good call, and my mate got really offended. You guys be the judge (note we were drinking).

There was myself, James, and Daniel.
James is a good mate of mine, Daniel is the boyfriend of James' sister, but they get on really well as good mates.

There was just the three of us making bets about whose Rugby League team would finish higher.

Daniel supports a better side than James, and proposed a $50 bet on who would finish higher. James said, no way, that's unfair this season. Daniel said, 2-1, so I'll give you $100, you give me $50, on whoever finishes higher.

James said, that's still unfair, as his team is really crap that year.

I piped in to be the arbitrator, and said, how about 2-1, BUT aswell, if James wins, Daniel's gf has to give James a BJ....

James got offended. It was clearly said in jest, Daniel still refuses to comment on whether he thinks it was funny (he just says "no comment" which I think means he thought it was funny).

He definitely thought it was funny, and it was. Your mate needs to stop with the faux outrage.

The easy way is to just give James' team a few points. So the bet goes by the number of points in the table +10 (or whatever, I don't even know if Rugby has points) for the lesser team.

It's because the bet would take place on SG and Barca are the most hated team here. I can't even think of an annoying ManU supporter now (not there aren't any, but they're not at the forefront of annoyance here).

Yeah, loads of easy ways to even up the bet, I just wanted to throw a sister joke into proceedings. Didn't go down like I imagined, but I agree he was just bunging it on.

Australians always offend quickly. I once got punched in the face by an Aussie girl for telling this joke:

What is the definition of an Australian virgin?

A girl who can outrun all her brothers.

Shifty, the bet is not fair, because Man U play in the same league as my team but not yours, so you wouldnt have to support them against your own team whereas I would.

Usually we're fairly good for self-deprecating humour. Scots, Irish and New Zealanders I've found are the best (in my travels), Americans amongst the worst as a whole. But us, and the English are both fairly good at it usually (we have to be, being convicts and all, and Poms have to be because of their international sport record).

But in this case, James definitely wasn't.

Sir_Didier_Drogba, I can't ever imagine a girl here punching me for that, if she did, nothing more than a punch in the arm. I think maybe she was just looking for a reason to punch you.

ooooh, please make it Barça! I would LOVE to see that!

wait, does, "openly support" just mean putting a Barça player/badge in your sig/avatar? or does it mean properly supporting the Cruyffian ideals of possession football? and also that 'goal is the biggest lie in football'?

Yeah, if Barca I meant you had to post in threads cheering for Barca and be an arrogant asshole about style and everything.

But I also don't want to do Barca.

I endorse the Barca rooting. Maybe the team will go through a rough patch next season and a lot of people will fall off the bandwagon. We need you!
