Avatar Bet-- Houston vs. Dallas

About 2 years ago, I asked many of you fine gentlemen and ladies for a game of Avatar Bets for the Texans @ Cowboys pre-season game of 2005. Like I expected, most declined, proclaiming come back when we play for real.

Well, the pivotal week is upon us-- Texans @ Cowboys, Round 2. Many of you state the Texan's will beat the Cowboys through pure emotion and mental toughness, others believe the key to victory is putting the rush on Bledsoe. Who's ready for a little Texas gamble to spice up the already coveted game? Now's the time to put the money where your mouths at.

The rules for an avatar bet are quite simple. If you so choose to join in, your Texan avatar is put on the stake, along with mine as well. If the Texans lose, you're required to wear the Star of the Cowboys for one week, if the Cowboys lose, I'll handicap (considering an Arena Football team could beat the Texans), I'll wear the Texan avatar for 6 months (one year if I get 20 takers).

And please, for the sake of this thread, don't give some excuse like "I could never wear the Cowboy Star" as it's obvious to read into what's the true meaning behind that.

DC, I'm Tunatexasstyle from over there.


Thunderkyss, you don't think 6-months compared to one week is enough? I'd say the Cowboys beat Texans 1/2 odds, Texans beat Cowboys in 6/1. (Don't know if I got it the other way around.)
 
I'm in, but I'll want to pick the avatar. It's simple to just have the star or Texans logo, but a pic like the one I have now is better.

I will accept your bet...no line no odds...just straight up. I am no homer by any stretch of the imagination, but I love this team and a challenge is a challenge. I never backed down from anything and I don't intend to start now. You are on sir! :wild:
 
hey by the way call me crazy, the texans need something real special to beat the cowboyz but im a believer, so why don't we extend the 1 week to 1 month....what u say about that??????

I'm in. :poker:

Just to make it a little more interesting, If the Texans win and they get a sack on the QB, then you would have to have that picture as your Avatar.

And if Dallas wins, and sacks our quarterback, then I would put that picture as my Avatar.


:texflag:
 
I must say, I am quite impressed with the showing of takers in this gamble of epic proportions. Though our teams may differ, we show a common unity resemblant of the undying Texas spirit of never backing down from a challenge, with a watchful eye to the future. Let us have an injury-free meeting this weekend, and solid performances out of both teams.

In the spirit of the game, I'll push your face through a car windshield any day of the week. As for giving anyone the chance to steal my my beloved air-humping stormtrooper... no way.

Go Texans.
 
The classic Star I'm wearing as we speak. If the Cowboys lose, it's up to you guys to decide what Texan logo you'd like to me to wear if you can come to an agreement on one. Otherwise I'll go with the ordinary Texan logo that so many already wear.

Dont worry, we'll find one far more deemening then the Texans logo for ya
 
Count me in! I figure the score will be a little closer than 19-10. Maybe 24-20. But in our favor. :logo: :redtowel:

By the way, the "The End is Near" picture is really neat if I do say so myself. Even if it does have Cowboys on there.
 
And you can ask our kick/punt returner. You know, that guy that went to the Pro Bowl. He went to Hampton University so I DAMN well know that he knows the deal up in here.

I'm hoping you weren't implying that VA wasn't up to snuff.

Sorry, but I get sensitive about schools I've been stationed around/
 
I want you to wear a Eagles logo in all internet forums...if the texans win HowBoutThemCowboys...That is unless your medicine is weak.:cowboy1:
 
Mr. Cowboy fan. How come you don't have an Eagle as your avatar this week?
Didn't have the gonads for making that bet with Philly???? :crying:

Are you going to use our avatar on the texans board or the cowboys board.
 
There ya go, if we win you have to wear "Brokeback Cowboys" for a week I guess? If The Cowgirls win are we all going to be sporting the Cowboys star?
 
I'll take that bet.

Guess if I lose, I will have to wear a desecrated star that TO sh+t on!
At least we haven't had our logo sh=t on!
