Complete homer, but that is why I like him. In fact he is the poster child for homerism. He makes bold statements and is willing to back them up with hard cash. He almost always loses, but he pays without stalling. He isn't afraid to admit he was wrong, once he realizes it (which could be never).
He does get some thread views. Many highly viewed threads were started by him. My favorite, of course being the Choptalk/WVU poker challenge which is one of the most viewed all time.
