Is he planning on calling the authorities?
WOW , I'm shocked !
I don't know what to say, finally got to read thru this long thread ( saw it hours ago), but have not read any of the EOG stuff, yet.
I think I'm pretty cool with J-man ? He definetely is a knowledgeable sports fan, starts a lot of good threads, and a few clunkers, he must be close to #1 in all-time posts ( not that is really a good thing.).
He seems OK, like when he bought pizza a few times( presumably at his expense) for personal contests he thought up.
I personally avoid getting into private bets and deals with guys I don't know well. I had that opportunity with Calvin over a prize with just us two left( think it was $1500), we could have split it ( private deal), but all or nothing is OK too. I'm sure he would have paid. ( He won by attendance on a late game being odd or even), and I'd have paid him also.
I violate it on occasion. I used to split referrals with Sean1, that worked fine, but we just let it slide long-term until close enough to even to call it a wash, so no checks were ever needed to be exchanged.
I bought something from Baseballguy by sending him payment first, he delivered.
I played a $1,000 BJ hand for a poster Mick J or something like that with a Rolling Stones connection) two years ago at IP Bash,( by his request), sent him his 90% ( I think it was).
I never have made an actual bet with a poster, but I might bet $100 with a guy I knew really well (via Internet) like a Sherwood or old prolific poster Sherman, somebody that I communicate with privately frequently.
I generally avoid it, don't know what J did, Shit just bet with a book, or a bookie, if its real money, I don't need to make bets with posters !
I can see why Wil discourages it !
I'm sorry but that cracked me up bigtime.

I love it. And I love the fact that we are no longer shitty. In fact, we're pretty damn solid, and I think it's going to continue. Cheers, bro. :toast:Hey how about those Iowa Hawkeyes ILLINI.... :missingte:missingte:missingte:missingte:missingte

And congrats to your Cubbies. I've got a lot of friends that are Cubs fans, so I'll be pulling for them.
Wil i think "Jman the asshole" has been privy to lots of personal information like big gamblers info that could lead to having players looked into, just saying if someone is up to no good they can find a way to cause trouble<!-- / message -->

trytrytry said it all for me in his post. Not much to add since that's what I would have said exactly. Journeyman, I hope only the best for you in the future & I hope that your situation will be defused sooner than later before the "shit hits the fan" (aw shucks, fucnluc already posted a picture of that, ha). In any case, Journeyman, it sounds like a trip to Ocean City at this time would do you a world of good away from all that ugliness going on.J-Man I just am in shock shock shock by all of this..bad day to be away from the forums I guess.. this is troublesome for sure.
J-Man catch your breath...... Obvioulsy its been a hard day and past month from the sounds of it... Your legacy is safe here despite the way you left.. but keep you legecy in tact..maybe dont post for a couple days and relax and enjoy the sports on TV!! It was a pleasure playing in your contests and joining in so many of your threads.
Obviously if a "person" has seriously put a death threat on your life and family that you think is sincere and real then call all the authorities you can think of and tell them of that crime, you need to protect your life from potential murder! (Im not sure what some of these posters around here are smoking tonight??).
RX Mods and team you are A+ A+ A+ in all manners (including advertising for the books with banners!).
Im looking forward to the J MAN NFL contest Sunday for one...
Thats because you couldnt read your monitor from my spraying Korbel in your face from all the celebrating we had to do the last few days. :toast:I only do not check in during football games days. Look what I missed, wow. Can't believe this. Hope Jman can calm down a little and let cooler heads prevail. Cigarman is a great guy and laid back.
