Anatomy of a Wager




I've always been a believer that my hometown New York Knicks will sign Lebron James in 2010. My brashness and insistence that it will happen resulted in a friendly wager with a neighborhood chum. I declared that I will wear my Team USA Lebron James jersey, as seen in the accompanying pictures, for 30 straight days without washing it should he sign with the Knicks. In exchange, he's got to purchase a Lebron James jersey of his own, and will be treating me to Opening Night at the Garden for the 2010-2011 basketball season. Should he not sign with the Knicks, I will treat him to said Opening Night, and compensate him for the face value of the jersey he would have bought. We agreed to use the Blog as a witness to this wager. Game on. Bring it, Mike Mazza.
