OT- Gambling & MgoDonations

Submitted by WalterMitty on

So I had an idea that may be pretty good or may flame out like most of my brilliant ideas. In an effort to support the long term health of MGoBlog, how about  we have some fun while driving donations? I'm thinking we can all announce to the world some kind of locks of the week, or whatever you want to call it, and tie it to a donation. You lose, you donate whatever amount you put on it. If you win, you get, uh, nothing. Obviously, on your honor, men. I know many of you are still in school, and my career has certainly been a disappointment to everyone involved, so $$ is whatever you can swing. I'll start:

$10 on Rice +9

$30 on Purdue +20

Krusty's Accountant: Let me get this straight. You took all the money you made franchising your name and bet it *against* the Harlem Globetrotters? 

Krusty the Clown: [miserable] Oh, I thought the Generals were due! 

[watches the game on TV

Krusty the Clown: He's spinning the ball on his finger! Just take it! Take it! 

[the Globetrotters score

Krusty the Clown: That game was fixed! They were using a freakin' ladder, for God's sake!

Since there's no "winning" in the form of money to take for a successful wager. It's more like a pledge akin to conditional donations for charity runs (i.e. I will give $20 if you complete one mile). I don't know that, though.
