Wonder if he kept his word?


"I ran across this old post by a self-proclaimed expert who is wrong more often than he is right...Back on September 3, 2010 he stated this in response to a discussion about that season's Lindy's Preview issue:


"I believe the Braves will finish 3rd or 4th--but I understand where 5th comes from. 
I will give Lindy's $100 if Andrew Warren ends up First-Team All-MVC.
I would not be totally surprised to see his minutes decrease as the year goes on in the place of DSE in particular and, to some degree, Eastman. Andrew isn't exactly....tough..."

"...Sammy makes first-team."...

Well, here are the results from the post-season MVC release-

Of course Andrew Warren did have a fine year and WAS 1st Team All Conference!
He also has gone on to a fine professional career, and is still going...
Sam Maniscalco, as we all know, didn't even play that season and never played again for Bradley after he redshirted.

So, pony up "tribecalledquest" - this time you've been caught - you gonna send the $100 to Lindy's?
Actually, I'd prefer you send it as a donation to the Braves Club or Bradley University general fund - it'll finally get your name on the donors list for the first time!
