bostonlager 2,664 Posted September 3, 2022 I haven’t had a favorite football team since 1995 when the Cleveland Browns decided they wanted to wear purple jerseys and put a bird on their hats. It was shortly after that I discovered sports wagering and soon decided I didn’t need a favorite team to invest time and emotion into. However, earlier this week, I shook E-hands with edjr on a bet that involves me paying him $25 for each Patriots loss and he pays me $25 for each win. At the end of the day, I don’t give a flying Fock about the Patriots, but this year I am invested. I hate Bill Belichick and still want to piss in his face for cutting Bernie Kosar. he is a genius and that can’t not be denied. I believe he could coach an NBA team to the playoffs and because of that, I agreed to the bet. in this thread, we talk about my temporary favorite team for one season, and one season only.
