Due to the fact that DJFC's thread of identical topic contained no content, I've decided to start the third annual thread of my own.
Up till today, I was about 95% sure the Cubs would be winning the World Series in 2005. Today, that number grew to 100% with the signing of Nomar Garciaparra! Now, I think we're all mature enough to admit that everyone knew I was just kidding when I said the Cubs would win the World Series in 2003 and 2004. But friends, I think it's time to put the tomfollery aside, and realize that this year, I'm not fucking around one bit. The Cubs will be putting the greatest team ever assembled on the baseball diamond. Not only will this team be World Series Champions in 11 short months, but they will also probably break a slew of single season team records, such as...well every record that can possibly be broken. My apologies to Red Sox fans for the cementing of the fact that you will never get your franchise player back, and also that you will not be repeating as World Series champs. Maybe in another 80 years or so... -Ugly Bastard |

That's the exact number I was thinking.
Can we assume this post is a binding agreement? If the Cubs win the World Series, you owe me $100, if they do not (which they won't), I owe you $20. Yes? -Ugly Bastard |

Hey guys. I just got great news.
By early November of 2005, I'm going to be winning a $100 bet! Want to know why? Because I got 5:1 odds on the Cubs winning the World Series, and I bet the maximum, $20. Every sane human knows the odds on the Cubs winning the World Series should be even money!!! Suckers!!! -Ugly Bastard |

I'm going to take the $20 that I'm going to win from you and, right this very second, make a bet on the Cubs to win the world series on Tradesports.com (where I get 9:1 odds).
If the cubs don't win, you'll give me $20...and I'll give Tradesports $20. If the cubs do win, I'll give you $100 and Tradesports will give me $180. I win! |

I still don't see that happening.. its a proven fact that if your team is cursed you must get rid of Nomar before you can win a World Series. Although, nice job on slashing ticket sales with losing Sosa.
