In the last month ive made 2 bets with 2 different FTR members;
The first bet i made was with rilla', he said that the steelers were going to go deeper into the playoffs, I said that the Patriots wee going to go deeper. Whoever looses has to change his avatr to the other teams emblem (or helm, etc)
My secon be was with dwarfman, it was similar to the first one except that our bet is about soccer. We bet on which team, Real madrid (me), or Chelsea (dwarf), was going to do better on the european champions league. Whoevers looses has to change its sig to anythin the winning player wants.
Ok, so the whole point of this post is to see who dso you think is goin to win either bet. I also wanted to create some discussion on this topic since i think itll bring up interesting discussion.

Interesting bet with the Patriots/Steelers. New England started out the year as the team to beat but then the Steelers beat them. I think the Steelers are #1 and the Patriots are #2 right now with the ESPN power ratings. I think the Patriots will go farther in the playoffs but I'm not confident enough to bet on it.

The Patriots WILL win the super bowl, regardless of who they play, they WILL not be beaten.

Real Madrid or Chelsea; well thats a tough choice
Chelsea is doing exceptionally well leading the EPL by 10 points over aresenal.
Real Madrid is in 2nd behind Barcelona in the Spain League by 7 points. I would have to choose Chelsea.
(i am a soccer ref) EPL is better imo.

Good man!
We got the Premiership sealed up already.
And well, Mourinho knows what he's doing when it comes to the Champions League, he did guide Porto, the Portuguese second seeds, to victory.
