I don’t remember who I bet my Wednesday bar tab. I do remember I said Keener would score points, impling he does not go 0-2. It was pointed out that points would mean more than one although that was not my point I believe we all,as there was multiple takers, were wrong. The issue is further muddied by the HonerableJudge Goldbannger who paid my Wednesday bar tab (next time you need a car call Goldbanger he may have had to takeout a loan for Cleveland Widow Jane consumption) so he will have to tell you how. Much we contribute to the slush fund.
 
How about this....for a bet

Thursday at Beef and Brew I was exposed by friends as The Lion. Guy I didn’t know laughed and asked how many one armed pushups I could still do. Not really knowing I said 80.

Incredulous he said, no way and “I got $1000 to say you can’t.” He flashed the stack of $100’s.

I decided actual cash was worth the effort and I went after it. 54 years old and 79 one armed pushups later that was it. He offered me a beer and walked away. I couldn’t make the 80th but ok.....

Meanwhile a 4mr PSU wrestler from my era bought us all a round or two since the other guy just didnt have the gonads to award the spirit of the bet.

79? That must have brought back Rutgers games of yore

 
Dear Lyco,
You may have implied that "points" means he would not got 0-2, however, as Lord Commander, Judge and Jury of this here betting escapade, I inferred you actually meant "points", as in more than one. Therefore, whosoever laid a bet against you is deemed the winner. As a neutral arbiter I apologize but I gotta call 'em like I see 'em.
As far as the amount of the bar tab, well that is more of a guesstimate rather than an exact science. My estimated of your tab is in the $60.00 range. The total was $480.00 with tip so you may have a better idea than I. In any event, we had a great time and witnessed one of, if not thee, most exciting National tournament ever conceived by the mind of man.
I bid you good luck in your future betting!!

Yes sir....while that and Cincy were after me...79 would have been an afterthought. My personal record was at the Phyrst when Ernie incited a table war which resulted in seeing how many I could do without stopping.

I didnt know then, but I found out. 177

By the way. Rotator Cuff surgery on one of the arms coming up on Wednesday. Lol. Hazards!!!

Good luck! Hope it isn't the beer hoisting shoulder ... though that would accelerate recovery.

No way you're 54 ;)!! Seriously, best wishes for successful surgery...orthopods do wonderful work nowadays. Hope it's not your typing or push-up arm :).

one armed pushups came from both sides... and the surgery is on the writing right arm. And shifting / driving. Guess I get to be a rider for a while. lol Thanks Roar!

My wife has had two rotator surgeries with the appropriate rehabs. Best of luck with the surgery and best, best of luck with the f---ing rehab. Remember, a gram of Tylenol with 600mg of ibuprofen an hour before is your friend.
 
When I see Lyco and Goldbanger in a conversation about losing bets, I get really, really nervous.

CBM, wishing you the best possible outcome and a speedy recovery from your surgery.

nitlion's post reminded me that my father-in-law, years ago, spoke of the "physical terrorists", when referring to his "physical therapists". Painful, it was...but worth it.

OMG ...the sky is falling ...make sure you show this to your dad ...remember ...he told me once that you’re never wrong ...just make sure he’s sitting down when you do and have some nitroglycerin tabs close ...don’t want to have any medical problems lmao ..(for the record though I disagree with Judge Goldbanger on the definition of ‘scoring points’ ... which I take to mean as scoring more than zero points)

Hmmm, anything less than "A" point is not "points". I would define "points" as greater than 1 point. Additionally, I am the final judge in this dispute, therefore LOSER!

Now, on to other business. Where is the picture of John Smith in a Penn State wrestling tshirt that Mike T owes you? May be time for a post on 34 and not counting anymore!
 
Togs has not been seen since he insisted OVER and OVER again that John Smith told him personally the OK State starters would be at Reno in 2016 (which with a dual at home less than 36 hours before Reno started was NEVER going to happen) and then of course, they weren't there. Maybe Smith told him he should become a ghost. Wait, maybe Togs IS posting here. LOL.
 
I've seen him post on HR this year, being banned, I could not post a reply. Guess I can still post on 34 and holding;)
