Irv Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 One Raiders, Dolphins, Jets, and me who is a Bills fan. We bet $100 each with winner-take-all on who would win the Super Bowl first. Would you bet on the Bills? I’m 53 years old and Frankly I don’t think I will ever collect or pay. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on how old your friends are and who's holding the money. I think the Jets and Bills are ahead of the other two because they at least have an opportunity at their QB working out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dolphins are about to embark on a rebuild after they fire Gase, and the Raiders are in Gruden jail for the foreseeable future. Bills are a long way off; the offense has to be completely rebuilt and that is going to take a very long time, even if it turns out that Allen can play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Jets. You. Raiders. Dolphins. In that order, but by the time it pays off, you'll all be too old and senile to remember you made the bet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The smart move for your friends what of been-first team that wins Superbowl- each better gives $100. The next team to win, the remaining betters all give $100. And so on. Your Raiders, Dolphins, and Jets friends saved you $300, and 20 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an interesting premise. Those are 4 really bad franchises and none look close to being good any time soon. To be honest, I can't see any of them winning anything in the near future. If I had to guess 1 franchise, I'd say the Raiders win first. Sure, I'd take the bet. $100 is reasonable and it's among (I assume) good friends. Why not?

For $100 amongst friends? Why dafuk not? It's not about the money, it's about the bragging rights. But you gotta give it some legs. Everyone should have to kick in $25 for every Super Bowl that nobody wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thurman#1 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Your last sentence is ridiculous. You'll pay or win unless your health is much worse than can be expected. I'd do it. $100 isn't going to break me. 56 minutes ago, DefenseWins said: For the record, I stated last week that the Patriots game was the game to bet $5000 on against the Bills... Yeah.

unbillievable Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Put the 400 into a company researching cold fusion, stargates, etc. and your great grandkids may collect a good amount when one of those teams finally win. A better bet would be for the other 3 to send the winner to the Superbowl to watch their team (win or lose). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondo in seattle Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I’m also in my 50s and sometimes wear a shirt that says “Just One Before I Die.” Im not confident that’ll happen. But your competition doesn’t look strong either. It’s a good bet. And I think the suggestions to add something to the pot each year are great.

PatsFanNH Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Bills have a D that can keep the team in most games. (The other teams do not) The Bills just have a train wreck on O that COULD be fixed with your young QB taking a step forward in the next couple of years and more importantly drafting/signing talented WR and RB around him. The Raiders are a dumpster fire right now! They are a good 5-6 years at least away from challenging for the division never mind the SB, the Jets are close but their D isn’t that good. And the Phins.. they will be rebuilding again next year.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fun bet. None of them are winning it in the foreseeable future. You could honestly set a dollar a week to the side and cover it if you have to ever pay. I'd take it. Why not.

DefenseWins Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I know of a couple of guys who have had a long running wager on whether the Bills will win a Super Bowl or whether the Sabres will win a Stanley Cup, first. Kind of similar situation... They are both approaching 60 yrs old... I'm not convinced either one will ever live long enough to see either happen...
