the capital markets and wall street as a whole gamble for a living.
we've learned that early on in our careers that you HAVE to have an opinion on everything...and your opinion better be researched because you may get called out on it....just the nature of my work i guess.

^^^^i'm not willing to give you any additional runs. if you do not think that it is a good bet to put your mets line up against the marlins then you shouldn't make the bet.
forget the dollar difference bet, i don't like that. how about this; if the marlins have more home runs between now and when i fly to ny on may 15, you pick up the bar tab shall we meet at a drinking establishment. however, if the mets hit more homers, then i will pick up the tab. if there is a tie, we each buy the other a round of their choice.
HEY RAD! you in?

Yanks got 4 more last night. Rays got 3 more. This could get really expensive.
Rad, I will let you out of our bet for a $40 donation to the charity of your choice.
