    Don't ever put in a bet for someone else unless they have already given you the money. Especially large bets.

    If he really did win the 3k last week why did he have to chase on Broncos.....could have just used that to pay Griz

    im not so sure i believe this story yet. ive read some crazy things on here only to learn they were lies to increase traffic. im not calling opie a liar...he is just an employee of sbr. its hard to fathom that a kid smart enough to get into NW law school, is this careless and egregious. im hoping for griz's and pickers sake that this is all just hype, to get a thread with 1,000's of posts. if this is indeed true...im at a total loss for words and cant imagine how griz must feel.

    PWAD made a post this morning at 1:03 AM well after the game was over.

    If this story was true, no way PWAD would be posting imo.

    The issue is Pickers story. North Western could be part of the fabrication.

    Who the hell knows, I am hoping this story isn't true.

    I swear to God every word I wrote was exactly how Gro relayed it to me this morning. I even left another posters name out simply to protect them.

    I swear on all that is holy not a single part of this made up by me. If Griz is acting on the phone, he deserves a fukkin Academy Award.

    there is always 2 sides to a story. lets see how picker responds to this, and maybe then, we can gauge if this is for real.

    Griz, if this is true, Picker sounds like a bitch. If he really is in Law School, I would call his bluff on going to the police. Make sure the damn bookie is not possibly able to be rolled on by the guy, if so that is even worse.

    His Legal career would be over before it started, if he were to essentially report himself.

    Not a single thing. Griz says he has all of the texts from PWAD to prove everything he said.

    I totally believe him. He ain't lying.

    Would Griz be so dumb to take responsibility for $12,000 tho??? For a guy he knows from a forum of degenerate gamblers???

    The thing is Griz felt like he ha gotten to know him. He said they hung out lots if times since PWAD moved to Chicago.

    I believe that picker is a lying bitch. I've said all along anyone who says they bet big money because they're parents are "rich" is full of it. I know lots of super rich people, and not one of them allows their idiot kids to have access to their money. Who in the fukk would do that?

    Guys, if you gave griz any meaningful advice, delete it. Guarantee Pick is reading this thread and Griz needs a full deck of cards.

    If true, PAWD was chasing in a real bad way. Not only did he want to win back the 3k he lost, but he wanted to add a 5k profit on top of that. Greed /addiction + chasing can lead one down a slippery slope. And to take Manning in his first road game in 650 days. Bad move.

    Guys I know this.is my fault for trusting him. He aint paying. Now I need to figure out how to settle this.with my book. I'm a man and.honor debts. I might liquify 401k and offer car title.

    Worst part is my beautiful intelligent girlfriend.has said she is.done. can't be with a degenerate she says.

    Boys i want to curl up and disappear. Worst day of my life. also boys I play tough on the.internet but I am not. No way to force.him to pay. Picker has threatened to call police already. If i go to jail, that would be bad.

    Played a big bou game and I am realizing how much i need to learn about life.

    I am a man though and.if.it takes me 10 years I will pay it.off. a man pays his debts. Just don't want him to kill me first.

    Boys I wish this.was.made up, but I m living this.right now. I tried.to tell myself it is a bad dream and unless I'm still sleeping, its not.

    Constructive comments appreciated. This is serious boys not a thread for jokes or ridiculing me.

    high3rel3m3nt makes some sense. if this is really true, and griz is out 12k, the 1st thing he would want to do is to find out if picker really is enrolled at NW. if he is, picker has access to some cash...no one goes to NW law school with not having a nickle to their name or at least family with some money unless a student is on scholarship, which picker has never claimed.
