    College basketball game of the year, with a guarantee to boot...

    First the guarantee. If this game loses I will not post again until April 1st, 2016. That's an entire week, folks. Can you imagine the shakes I'll be experiencing? That's a pretty significant length of time. That should speak to my certainty on this play.

    Secondly, if the unthinkable happens and this crashes and burns, I would encourage you all to vilify, disparage, and verbally rape me. I will have deserved it for starting such a stupid thread.

    The play: Gonzaga -4.

    Wow

    This thread is so un-Giant like

    He NEVER guarantees anything unless he is COMPLETELY convinced

    His last guarantee came on December 31st, 1999 when he guaranteed that the Y2k threat would not end the world in the year 2000. Nailed it.

    16 years later I had to wait for another guarantee but I will not make the same mistake this time by spending all my earnings on a useless bomb shelter that has yet to be used.

    I can't believe books were offering even money on that Y2K bet.

    I really hoodwinked them on that one.

    I am a little worried about their six days off, not going to lie.

    And the possibility of them succumbing to the Boeheim 2-3 zone defense.

    But other than that, I'm feeling pretty good.

    You can do that, but it's unnecessary. I'm not laying around -190, when they're going to win by 15-20.

    nah you don't have too, enjoy the points...just wanted to see how big of a play this was for you and if you were willing to go the distance if it loses. Like you told me one time..."I like to know the mindset of a gambler before a play"

    I don't like talking dollar amounts, but I've got four units already on it. That's a pretty sizable play for me. I might even add a little more as it gets closer to gametime.

    As of March 25th, it'll be my biggest play this year.

    I will also say this about the game. Zags guards have been playing out of their heads thus far in the tournament. The Cuse zone could be what finally exposes them.

    Ok...yet I'm sensitive as I gave you points to pay back DS on one of your big plays. I will probably tail as I'm 84 points invested.

    Wins and losses come and go, but legacies last a lifetime.

    24 hours to go until my legacy is defined.

    God bless you all.
