Sports Fan - Weight Bet?

Calling all sports fan...
Just wondering, if anyone would like to make a weight bet with me? It's a punishment bet, real simple. Write down how many pounds you want to lose by June 12th (5 weeks from now) and the sports team/player you really hate, despise, can't stand, can't even mention their last name/team, etc.

If you don't make your goal, you have to change your profile pic for two weeks (I would make it longer but that's just cruel) with the team/player you despise. I'll start.

Current Weight: 180
Goal: 170 by June 12th
Team/Player I can't stand: Lakers. My hatred for this team is just like lava, it just flows...LOL

If anyone is interested, add me as friend and we'll do some trash talking (of course in fun). I rather play in the freeway than change my profile pic. Bet is a friendly wager with a little trash talking (I'll keep you motivated). Of course this is based on the honor system, you get to lose weight and still hate your team... (Ha-ha)

    Well I love sports... and I'm dying to get rid of these last 5 pounds so I'm hoping this will be the ticket! It's either me at my goal weight or a picture of Ben Roethlisberger... yeeesh, this may be more motivation than I thought!

    Thanks...should be a fun bet.

    The jersey thing gets expensive (I lost that bet already).. I think we should just post a player on that team as a pic.

    For Ruth - I say Derek Jeter..
    For ChefJime - Gotta be Tim Duncan...
    For Jeanette09 - Landon Donavon from the Galaxy.
    For SkinnyDR (Dennis) - Kobe

    Add me as friend and I'll keep tabs on you...starts tomorrow!

    Game is on....Team/Player Lakers/Kobe the self centered, over rated, over zealous player or as my son says C.O.O.L (constipated, over weighted, over sized, loser)...LOL

    We were raised as kids in Michigan... so we're big Wolverine fans and despise Ohio State. My hubby then moved to Boston as a preteen & spent 15 years there... so he's a big Red Sox fan. He did decide that he hates the Buckeyes more than the Yankees... but in the spirit of baseball season...

    Well they are so easy to hate and I am not even a Boston fan. I am Twins fan and we have our first series against them this week. I just prefer teams that play with their heart not the pocket book. (Well other then to get the home town boy home. :happy: )

    Yes he is! And hopefully his sentenced isn't reduced but I don't think we'll be so lucky... fingers crossed! If his suspension interferes with the challenge I could also easily use anything associated with U of M football.. haha I'm a Buckeye girl... and yes I realize we have a lot of haters and yes... I understand why. But anytime Michigan wants to give us a run for our money again that'd be great... we're getting bored!

    Nice job everybody!!!
    Keep up the good work, hatred for the team/player = love for losing weight.

    Just imagine if you lose, you have to see the team/player you despise the most every FREAKING day for two weeks on your profile...that's just sick.

    I'm gonna have to bow out... I spent a week away from home with no way to track my calories and the combination of travel stress and the fact that there are apparently no vegetables in Knoxville did me in. I gained back almost three pounds. :frown:

    I want to be involved in the next one.. and where is everyone from the UK? I know the premier league finished but don't say you have love for every team now..
