teamcal00 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 I'm in. I'll donate $50 if the skins DON'T make the playoffs. I'll donate $100 if we make it to the Super Bowl regardless of the game's outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Money Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 Originally posted by Kevin B. Alright, I'll play... $100 that we make the playoffs. CLARIFICATION: If we don't make the playoffs I'll pay $100 to ES. (I can't root against it!?) If I lose I want to change my username again! I have edited my post to CLARIFY that I am not betting both ways. My bet is simple, if WE DO NOT MAKE THE PLAYOFFS I pay $100. Somebody confused me and put me in both ways, again I am only paying if we DO NOT make the playoffs. Nice job on the rest of this! :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayprils Posted April 4, 2005 Author Share Posted April 4, 2005 I admire all you fans that have stepped up and put your faith in our team. I also have respect for the other teams that have also got involved in this thread. Much respect to all!!!! Now I know there's more fans out there and I know you can afford 50 bucks so, show your faith in our team (that's if you believe). You'll spend this amount just watching one game next season. C'mon???? My vision is to see every fan involved in this thread. Step up.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illone Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 When we DO make the playoffs teams will fear us, period. Good thread, rayprils. Way to step up for the team and the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaudry Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 So are we betting for or against the Redskins? I don't get it, I think I'll just buy a hat or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalSkins Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Originally posted by Beaudry So are we betting for or against the Redskins? I don't get it, I think I'll just buy a hat or something. It depends on your perception. I am putting up $250 if the Skins don't make the playoffs, meaning to me that I am so confident that the skins will make the playoffs that I am willing to give up $250 if they don't. Others perceive the situation as why should you give money if they don't make the playoffs, they probably perceive the situation that they will be so happy when the skins finally make the playoffs that they are willing to donate to the site. I am donating $500 when the skins win the next Superbowl based on this thought process. Either way, the site is guaranteed a large donation without having solicited it and we can show them some love for building and maintaining such a great site.

SoCalSkins Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I will also donate $50 if Ramsey does not throw over 3000 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huly Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Ok Huly is in! I will pay $100.00 if the skins do not make the playoffs. Consider this We are depressed money! If they do make the playoffs I will be paying a butt load more as I will be sending Pez to every game to root for our boys! Also just an early reminder next year off season we will have another get together fundraiser for this AWESOME board! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartskins Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 FYI: Huly's pledge brings the total for the "Not Making the Playoffs" over the total for the "Making the Playoffs" by $10... *hint* *hint* *nudge* *nudge* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaudry Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Ok, why does the black extremeskins hat have a white button on it? That's just weird. Out of curiosity, before this thread what has been the largest $$ donation to ExtremeSkins that wasn't from the owners? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huly Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Ok $20 if they do make the play offs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins11 Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I think someone (rayprils?) donated $500 when the Skins didn't make the Superbowl. I plan to do some donatin' once I start my new job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure, but I believe that both rayprils and EagleSteve have donated $500 at a single time. Originally posted by Huly Ok $20 if they do make the play offs! Thanks Huly!

No matter what happens, we need to show some love to this site. What better to include some bets as donation for a good cause. If you're going to lose money to your bookie, why not give it to Extremeskins?? I still can't believe we haven't gotten more people participating on this thread. C'mon people. $5,$10 or etc. Simple... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
