Will Boeckman be Benched?

[Best Buckeye]

Its not real money...sheesh. There is nothing to buy, nothing to cash in, nada...its just a number.

What OMG !! ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH !!
It's fake Money?? ARGHHHHHHHHHH

There goes my grandkids Vcollege education.

[sarcasm] Personally, I think the the entire bench Boeckman rumors are just to relieve the pressure of the USC loss and Beanie's foot. Todd probably took all the snaps in the closed practice and Tress is just fooling with us [/sarcasm]

i blame Ty Willingham.

Stupid vBank getting their damn vBailout by the vFed. Put it all on the vTaxpayers? Is that your vSolution? We could use that vMoney for vSocial Reform.

 

[Orenthal James]

its just a number.

Then why change it?

 

[osugrad21]

Then why change it?

Because then there is zero fun it the bets due to zero risk...it was a bet based on making a statement of support for Boeckman. Obviously, it blew up in our faces.

You will get your vCash....just not the one beeeeelion dollars.

First AIG, now it's the BP banker, things are tough all over.

Fair enough.

TRON still wants a million and if not paid, well you of all people should know....

just my two cents


this is pretty lame that the bet is being backed down to "reduce the inflation" of a VIRTUAL market, if vbucks had any real life meaning then i could understand, but to worry about inflation of a fake market is really lame

I had 500 down on TB being benched.

Anyone other than TB starts, not due to injury

edit: and I think anyone complaining about the retroactive reduction in odds needs to be hit with a vcapital gains tax. :p

 

[sparcboxbuck]

This was the right thing to do.

I'm guessing that everyone who took the bet (including myself) did so for the odds alone.

When I took the bet I was betting more on TP stepping up as opposed to TB having some problems. I would have been very happy to take the 10000:1 winnings for TP stepping up and TB performing well too. I HATE the fact that it came to this because I NEVER want to see a Man of the S&G go through what TB is having to deal with right now.


While TB may or may not earn back the starting position, he is and always will be one of our Buckeyes. His leadership last year, during the summer and bringing TP in and under his wing is something that we should all step back and respect... not just because he did it... but because he did it knowing all along that there was a chance that his helping TP could cost him his job. He, more than any other I can remember, has taken one for the team here.

Todd is a true Buckeye and one hell of a team player.

For you Todd:

Ok. You can have every penny of my vCash....will that make you feel better?

It was a STATEMENT of SUPPORT for Boeckman...if it was a real bet, I could understand.

Name your number. You can have it. If it is that big of a damn deal, you folks can have every penny.

Nobody will say it as the fear of being banned scares them, but this is BS.

It's not my site, I understand this but I think you should pay what was promised.

Okay, how about this ... we'll pay you your 100 to 1 winnings right now, and we'll put the excess in a vIRA for you. When you want to retire - permanently - from BP, then we'll pay off. Cool?
