Nice. You got called a douche by the slows guy, that counts for something. Not sure what, but something.

This is going to be a big year for Detroit imo. Red Wings, Tigers, Lions are all looking really good. Add an emergency financial manager for the city and I think we're on to something.

He didn't actually call me a douche but i could see it in his eyes that he wanted to. If the tigers win the AL this year and the Lions make it to the playoffs again, I will give you 250 goodwin bucks.

I could be wrong, but the last time I checked the only place that validated goodwin bucks was Bouzouki's and even then only on Monday's from 11:00 - 11:30 am.

Still, I'll take that bet.

250 will get you a very decent half hour with the Monday lunch staff.

250 goes a long way with the c-squad?

Why so pessimistic regarding the Tig's?

Not pessimistic at all....you are aware that a goodwin buck has absolutely no value right?

Fully aware. I actually think it has negative valuation.

Yet...no value yet. Once the fed is abolished and the country is on the newly formed "Goodwin Standard", those bucks will be worth a lot. It's the part of Ron Pauls plan nobody speaks of.
