The world knows us as the Yanks, and for the most part we have embraced it. Our songs employ the terms etc, so Id say thats what we are.

Well, considering that USA vs Algeria was never a betting option, I'd say you're full of shit. Or you bet on the Ghana match and are just plain dumb.

Yes. Methinks they don't know what they're doing.

I paid out manually those that bet on a draw. Those those picked Ghana to win will just get to keep their bets.

This is also just a trial run to get our feet wet with the system. I will likely end the first period at the end of July and reset everyone back to 500 on August 1. Winner will likely get a $10 Amazon giftcard or something for this first go round.

**EDITED RESET DATE**

I wish the casinos would fuck up my horse race bets so I got paid for losing (then I wouldn't have lost my ass on the Preakness this year)...

I definitely bit my tongue here when I saw I was getting vmoney that I shouldn't for picking Ghana to win. :p
