S2S - Dolphins @ Bears....what are we betting?

[Scav]

Guess who got tickets for this game and is sitting near where the Dolphins come on the field, THEY ARE GOING TO FEEL SCAV's PAIN on November 5th, what are we laying on this game. NO POINTS< NOTHING. Bears will be undefeated going into the game, getting ready for the first undefeated season since the 72 Dolphins(?).....BOOM SHAKA LAKKA

[JJP]

Too bad the Bears couldn't play them in December, when you know it will be cold and teams coming from the warm climates really feel it. I can still picture Vick freezing his a$$ off last year. First week of November could be cold, or it could even be 60 degrees. I've got mixed feelings on this game; I'm a Bears fan but have a future wager on Miami OVER 9 1/2 wins.

While the Bears should win the division, I'm not as optimistic as you are. Remember all the optimism in 2002 coming off a 13-3 season in 2001? They went from a last place schedule to a first place schedule; injuries that they missed in 2001 were rampant in 2002. Interesting in that the other 3 NFC North teams all have new coaches. I predict one of those three will be much better than anticipated. Not sure who, however. I'd be inclined to guess Detroit.

Well, you know the line on this RIGHT NOW has to be Chicago -2.

But I'm a sport and will bet even.

Let's say loser covers a box or table for 4 at Gulfstream whenever you get on down here.

If I lose you can trade in your prize for all you can spend in 10 minutes at the local shoe show.

I was at that Vick game, it was awesome. Mora was spitting ice cubes(was his saliva) at the ref...

They should sweep the division this year, Packers are horrible, Vikings are horrible, Detroit is the question mark...Their out of division schedule is rough but they are catching New England in a down period(I think/hope) and Jets are brutal. Giants will be a great game because their defense is improved.

All I ask is that Grossman gets a full year to play. he has a CANNON for an arm and gets rid of the ball quicker then most NFL QB's.....This is his first time since Florida that he hasn't had to learn a new offense so hopefully that will help also.....My prediction for the Bears this year: They will be the last undefeated team to lose a game, and will go 13-3, get beat in the NFC Championship game by a 72 yard FG

Do they have boxes down there now? I thought they only have seats?

Loser has to buy 4 seats for the three days that we are down there...Again, Kev wins on my side of it because he will probably be with me(GPK already as a dinner coming, and now he is getting box seats...NO RISK with this guy)

Deal?

You think GB should be lower then -3? I think the bears should be favored by 7 or 10 points, they are going to destroy them

GB's defense will be much improved with the addition of Hawk, Hodge, and Woodson...I see a 0-0 tie for about two days with both their anemic offenses.

8-8 probably wins that division. Buy or sell sexy Rexy as the QB? Um, not sold on that at all. Mediocore WRs and a decent running game. Jones is the only fantasy offensive player, D will be tough. They could go 9-7 and win the division by 2 games. Lions 2nd @ 7-9, vikes and pack tie @ 6-10 or 5-11.

I know ONE thing... Brooks can throw a long ball....and # 18 & # 84 can run good clean patterns... If Jordan can run the rock like last year, who knowes. The Big Question is the Defense.. but a good draft and a Hard hitting first round pick (who WANTS TO PLAY FOR THE RAIDERS !! ) Im sure
coach Shell will help with the O.Line... Of course they play in a good division with Old time rivals.... But Let me ask one ?... Are the Bengals going to turn there uniforms to black & white vertical stripes ?

That could be very possible. I'm glad they are taking some of the troubled bad boy image away from my Cowboys(Who will be in the Superbowl :cool: ). Silver and Black offense should be solid if the Wrs stay healthy, Jordan is a quality RB. If O-line improves they will be ok. I think D will cost them most of thier games. I'm affraid when they fall behind, that long ball that Brooks can throw will be going to the wrong team.

Which part of the stands will they be sitting in ? Opppsss I forgot they got T.O..... Going 16-0 toooooo ?

SO PUMPED...

Bruce, lets talk about the Bears shutting out the Dolphins

So far we are

1) Bears vs Dolphins - 4 seats for three day at Gulfstream (FOY weekend I am hoping)

2) Bears vs Packers +3 - First beer at Gulfstream

3) Bears shutting out the Dolphins, or holding to less then 7 points even????

1). Check
2). Check
3). I'll give you 10-1 if you want to bet the Bears shut out Miami. I'll give you 7-1 on the Bears holding Miami to less than 7 points.

How about:
1. Going into the Chi-Miami game, total rushing yards? You take Thomas Jones, I'll take Ronnie Brown. Loser buys breakfast.
2. Game time temp? You make the line.
3. Will you give me 6-1 that Grossman does not start?
4. I'll bet the freakin coin toss, if you want.

[Scav]

Alright, I'll take 10 beers to 1 beer that they shut them out, I will also take 7 beers to 1 beer that they hold them to less then or EQUAL to 7 points

1) I'll take Ced Benson to have more rushing yards then Ronnie Brown for breakfast
2) The average high for November 5th is 54 degrees, I will take the OVER(http://www.weather.com/outlook/events/sports/weather/tenday/60605?eventid=185540&epc=bi&from=/outlook/events/sports/result?from=sportsopt1&query=SPORTS_TEAM_SCHEDULE&team=biaz

Matter of fact, I plan on calling their group sales department regarding this...

You know if I plan it,they will come

Hooves, Bigsmc, S2S, Byk will be down there, Buffy, Scav, GPK, Randall, whoever else wants to go....just a big ass party with Bruce buying beer all day when the Bears shut out the Dolphins and Ced goes for 230 yards

Don't worry about a car. We have cars.

Don't think about room rates that high. There's TONS of motels. Some close to GP, some close to the Dog Track, some close to Pompano Park, some close to the Jai Alai.

It could go ...

Fly in Fri AM
Fri GP
Fri Night. We bunk with Bubba at my house.
Sat GP
Sat night. We get rooms
Sun GP
Sun pm ... drive to Tampa.
Sun 10:00 pm. We hit the last race Super at Derby Lane
