Board Bets are one poster making a bet against another poster, however, I have bet $100 each on the Vikings winning the division which is at +295 and the Vikings winning 10 Games which is +160. I could have bet on the Vikings winning 9 games, but that was -130.

Just checking to see if i got this right: You're concerned you might be taking a liberty with a thread that's used twice a year, but still used for bets, but because you think it's funny you adamantly believe it's ok to change someone's post?

Yes. Changing a post would be wrong if you don't make the I Fixed it for You disclaimer. When you do that it is OBVIOUSLY a joke and it can be funny.


Maybe when someone likeable does it.

Finally it comes out. What I did wasn't wrong in any way it's just that I'm the one who did it.

We don't agree on much, but yeah, that's the gist of it.

I get we're not talking about term papers here but personally speaking, for me, it's still all about what I said before: it is not yours to change -- and you don't respect that.

Edit: that last paragraph wasn't right

Right out of a Far Side comic:

Again missing the big picture, kgb is ecstatic after receiving validation he was 'right'.

Once again it's obviously a joke with no ill will intended. I'm not the first person to do it and I won't be the last.
