Fed won't reach the Final in Wimbledon

[TheLoneWolf]

***EDIT: DragonBlaze suggested making this a multi-bet. Look at the UPDATE at the end of this post***

Following OddJack's brave lead, I predict Fed won't reach the Final in Wimby this time around.

Similar rules as before. The first person to accept this bet agrees to:

Loser will change his signature for 1 full week (starting the same day the bet's result is known) to: "I AM A STUPID x AND I LOST A BET." (Where x = ******* or *******.)

I'm not interested in arguing about this, or in engaging in a premature troll war. This is simply a bet. First taker let me know by posting in this thread.

UPDATE: This thread is now a multi-bet. In the noble spirit of humiliating as many ****s as possible, anybody can enter, with the only constraint that both sides much be balanced (That is, for each ******* joining the bet, a ******* must also join.) Please reach an agreement in pairs and let me know so that I can update the tally. So it begins...

Current marks:

*******S........vs.........*******S

I'm gonna have to agree IF he is in the same quarter or half as Roddick. I just think Roddick will beat him this time.

 

[Justdoit10]

LOL. I will take the bet. Sounds fun.

 

[TheLoneWolf]

LOL. I will take the bet. Sounds fun.

HAHAHA. You're on, buddy.

Thanks for the easy bet. I thought this thread would derive into an all-out war (although I suppose that is still a possibility.)

 

[DragonBlaze]

You're on!

Although I dont post around here much so dont know if its worth much!

 

[Justdoit10]

You're on!

Although I dont post around here much so dont know if its worth much!

whoa sir, easy there. I already took the bet.

 

[TennisandMusic]

Loser has to man up and actually do what he agrees too. Oddjack really wussed out.

 

[TheLoneWolf]

You're on!

Although I dont post around here much so dont know if its worth much!

Sorry, JDI already agreed. Your bravery is noted, however. You are free to change your signature as you see fit as well, be my guest.

 

[DragonBlaze]

Ah I was a bit late.

Cant we make it a multiple people bet thing though? I'm sure there are other people who are willing to join in?

Heck, T&M, how about me and you have one? And I surely wont wuss out!

I think if Nadal wins Wimby he may have the year-end #1 position locked up (especially if Federer goes out before the Final), regardless of his remaining 2010 results.

Be interesting to see another one of these charts carried through the end of the year:

I'm 80% sure Nadal is going to be no.1 this year, until unless Federer manages to rediscover his AO form AND keep it through the WTF and some masters.

Even then, pretty tough ask from Federer, hes gonna be 29 soon isnt he? His no.1 time is gone, it's time for Nadal to keep it I think (and not be silly with his schedule).

Excellent idea. Let's keep a tally. I will update the first post with a tally. The number of *******s must be balanced out evenly by the number of *******s. It's going to be a battle of epic proportions. If my plans are successful, I'll predict roughly 20% of the posting population will have the signature.

LOL. Roger's chart is starting to look as f'ed up as the Euro's.

 

[Halba]

roger has not turned up since AO. if he draws roddick in quarter of wimby he could be gone.

 

[zagor]

I'm IN

 

[Sangria]

I like Roger too, but I'll be a ******* just for kicks

 

[AndyArodRoddick]

He won't. No debate IMO.

 

[Sentinel]

The King of Grass from Dunsbane, Scotland will take him out !!!!

 

[Tennis_Monk]

I want to be in this bet too. I dont know if its too late. OP says this has to be done by Paris. We are all done with Paris.

 

[aceX]

Umm what do you do if you're a Nadal fan but thinks that Fed will reach the final?

 

[billnepill]

Umm what do you do if you're a Nadal fan but thinks that Fed will reach the final?

You are being reasonable?

 

[ViscaB]

Umm what do you do if you're a Nadal fan but thinks that Fed will reach the final?

Same here.

For the sake of tennis I hope that Federer and Nadal meet again. They rarely fail to deliver especially on grass when they play each other.

 

[billnepill]

You are being reasonable?

That said, I am in

 

[vortex1]

He will reach final. Who's gonna stop him? Nadal is obviously on the other half... so who? Faker who sucks on grass? Slam clown Muzza? His pigeon Roddick? Give me a break.

 

[frisco]

Reasonable people don't belong here. Please close your account.

nah, I will wait to get banned

 

[Semi-Pro]

Meeeeee. I want in!!!

 

[TheLoneWolf]

I'm IN

That's an honor, zagor. And I assume you will take the role of a *******? I'm writing you down as such in the tally. If I'm wrong, let me know so that I can fix it.

 

[TheLoneWolf]

I like Roger too, but I'll be a ******* just for kicks

My dear friend, liking Roger and feeling that he can reach the Final are two different things. I'm putting you down. Paired with Zagor.

 

[zagor]

That's an honor, zagor. And I assume you will take the role of a *******? I'm writing you down as such in the tally. If I'm wrong, let me know so that I can fix it.

Yup,*******.I'm always up for a good bet.

 

[TheLoneWolf]

I want to be in this bet too. I dont know if its too late. OP says this has to be done by Paris. We are all done with Paris.

The OP says that? Where?

No, the bet will be open until the first day of Wimby. Plenty of time to join.

Which side would you like to be on, Tennis_Monk?

 

[TheLoneWolf]

Yup,*******.I'm always up for a good bet.

It will make Fed's matches this Wimby even more interesting. A lot more riding on them.

 

[TheLoneWolf]

Umm what do you do if you're a Nadal fan but thinks that Fed will reach the final?

Sorry, this bet is only for ****s. You must be willing to take the role of a ****, even if you are not one (which is what zagor just did.)

 

[kishnabe]

I don't think Nadal will reach the final of wimby and I am a *********! But ******* primarily!
So I am in!

 

[TheLoneWolf]

That said, I am in

That's great, billnepill. You need to tell me what side you are with (that applies to everyone here.) I'm making no assumptions, so even if slicefox wants in, he'll have to verify he doesn't want to be with the *******s. :lol:

 

[TheLoneWolf]

Meeeeee. I want in!!!

Awesome, Semi-Pro. I don't want to assume you will be a *******, so you need to be specific. Let me know which side you will be with.

 

[TheLoneWolf]

I don't think Nadal will reach the final of wimby and I am a *********! But ******* primarily!

Excellent, kishnabe. OK, you need to find a (possibly willing) ******* to pair up with. You are next in line for the ******* side.

 

[kraggy]

I don't think Nadal will reach the final of wimby and I am a *********! But ******* primarily!

I'll take that bet, and I'm a *******

P.S - Lonewolf can you update the OP to state that it is upto the pair to decide what they want to bet on? And then put down the names of the pair as well as what they are betting on in the list you are creating. I'm guessing people might want to make predictions on Murray and Djoker as well. As long as there is a counterparty it would work.

 

[mr_eko]

Federer will probably make the final. I think someone like Berdych, if he is in the same half of the draw, could beat Federer but Federer is still the favorite.

 

[TheLoneWolf]

I'll take that bet, and I'm a *******

Thanks for joining in the fun, kraggy.

While having individual bets sounds intriguing, I think it will be too much work, and having a unified bet will make it much easier for enforcement purposes. In other words, I think that is a great idea, but let's keep it simple for now.

I'm pairing you up with kishnabe. Good luck!

Alright no worries, yeah it would be too much work for you. But basically the bet Kishnabe and I are on is on whether Nadal will reach the final. We are not placing a bet on Fed reaching the final. So can you maybe provide just those 2 bet options?

I'm glad you understand. I think a new thread should be started for that bet. Feel free to do so by creating a clone of this thread with a different title.

Do you (and kishnabe) not wish to partake in this awesome adventure, then? (I'm talking about betting on Fed reaching the final.)

 

[Semi-Pro]

Awesome, Semi-Pro. I don't want to assume you will be a *******, so you need to be specific. Let me know which side you will be with.

'*******', please.

 

[Fedace]

we need Federer vs Nadal final to drive up the TV ratings..

 

[theroleoftheunderdog]

******** is done

 

[swordtennis]

Probably not but crazy things happen all the time. I do think he will get up 4 a couple more slams, win them and give Tennis fans a few last blasts. Mayb not this year tho.

 

[rainingaces]

Federer will make the final no doubt in my mind.

So I am up for that.

 

[TheLoneWolf]

'*******', please.

You are next in line for the *******s.

 

[TheLoneWolf]

yeah fed wont make final, im here representing rodtards

Are you willing to enter the challenge under the ******* banner? If so, I will pair you with Semi-Pro.

Roddick just said that Nadal is the best ever on clay, so since he appears to be a *******, maybe you could follow his lead?

 

[TheLoneWolf]

Federer will make the final no doubt in my mind.

So I am up for that.

You are next in line after Semi-Pro.

We appear to have a shortage of *******s. I am quite disappointed, to say the least.
