You made my righteous indignation twinge ever so slightly, but beyond that I'm sorry, you just didn't shake me. I have some jell-o to get back to now.

I know nothing about the Lakers other than the jokes Jay Leno makes about them all the time. So I'll take San Antonio.... which I know even less about.

I propose that the loser of the bet have to paint their face with the colors and logos of the winning team, and post it on this thread. The face painting should cover the entire face - to prevent malfeasance and to limit our exposure to your ugly mugs.

This is something along the lines of what I was thinking. I'm confident that the Lakers will beat the Spurs.

I'm really torn. My two favorite teams are in the Eastern Finals. I was a big Celtics fan since the days of Hondo and company, and loved 'em even more in the Bird era. I wasn't a fan of the "Bad Boys" but I really like the current Pistons team. The West? Screw 'em.

How about the loser has to paint their faces and put up a pedal from their fx-loop?

Ok. Beer. Beer works. Hits a man where it hurts. I will bet a sixer of Sierra Nevada, a California beer, against your Shiner Bloc. Do we have a deal? You have to take a picture with your face painted next to the sixer of beer BEFORE you ship it.

As much as I dislike the Lakers, they aren't a dirty team (like the Spurs), so you wouldn't have a basis to argue that!
