How do I start a bet?

How do I start a bet thread? Or is that just for Admins and Mods?

I do believe it is just Admin and Mods.

Check your userpanel below when you create a thread in this forum.

If it has the following checkbox, you might be able to start a new event.

I need someone to be the fantasy bookie for this site. Basically your responsibility would be throwing out bets and making odds. Anyone interested should shoot me a PM.

I'd do it, but we all saw how well I handled the job. :lol:

Besides, I know nothing about setting fair odds.

I know. I was being facetious again. :D Probably should have said, "What's the NBA?"

Agreed. How is that College basketball can be so great, yet Pro basketball so bad?

Team play. For the most part.

Yup; Pro is too much of a business; and full of individuals instead of teams.

Pro football doesn't seem to have that problem. Other than T.O. and a select few.

I agree; much more team oriented for some reason.

What's amazing is the fact that M.J. was the best there was and was respectfull and classy, then these younger guys, who may, or may not, be pretty good, get these incredible egos. Eveything goes to their heads. They think that they are gods. How can you be "pretty good" and think that you are a god, when the best to ever play the game, (Slightly arguable) was so humble?

That's why he was the best IMO. He wasn't so full of himself that he didn't respect the talent that was on the court with him; he knew his opponent.
