THIS JUST IN...
It has come to The Commish's attention that there was some significant action in one particular Week 7 match-up. I'm speaking of the match-up between The Travelin' Man manager, Brian Hanley, and The House Of Pain co-managers, Jayne and Bobby. These two teams have a side-bet history dating all the way back to 2011. And before you can understand the magnitude of last weeks bet, you must first know about last years bet.
You see, also on Week 7 last year, these two teams went up against each other and placed a bet. Only a few short weeks before Thanksgiving, these two teams decided what better wager than betting a 20lb turkey to the winner. Brian lost this bet 49.93 to 59.45. But did he send the Walsh's the Butterball they deserved? No. He did not.
A year has passed and Brian has not sent a turkey north for the winter. That being said, The Walsh's offered Brian an out. This year, double or nothing... only it's ham. That's right. If Brian was to win, his debt would be wiped clean and he would not longer be on the hook for the 20 pound gobbler. But if Brian were to lose this one as well, he'd be in deep for not just a 20lb turkey... but a 20lb ham as well! (spiral cut, of course) So who won between these two teams? Well, by a score of 72.23 to 55.43, it looks like the Walsh's will have yet another thing to be thankful for this year... a beautiful baby, and Brian treating to most of the Walsh Thanksgiving.
So remember, if you place a bet, make sure to pay your bet. Otherwise the Fantasy Football Karma Gods will not be kind to you.
Happy side-bets everyone.
Sincerely,
The Commish
