And, I will tell you what, I'll make a bet with you right now on HObbs. If he is , or isnt , the starting corner, opposite Samuel , next season, the loser of the bet will not post on this forum, or any other Pats forum, for the entire season, not including post season games....... And we can have it verified by IP check .... If he is injured, that will not count as not being the starter and the bet will be null and void.
BNut, it has to be the corner position. If he starts at nickel back, or any other position other than corner, then I win.
You offered this bet to Sooner, here's your chance to get me off the forum for the 2007 season, I'm willing to take this bet if we can agree on the ground rules:
I'll take your bet, providing the reason Hobbs does not start is because he was either cut from the team or loses his starting job to another player in Training Camp. If he is injured or suspended by the NFL, then the wager is nullified. Samuel's status with the team has no bearing on the wager. The losing wager prevents that member from posting on this or any other Patriots' forum during the 2007 NFL season which ends with the beginning of Free Agency in 2008. I believe this was the intent of your wager with Sooner, do you agree to these conditions? Are you willing to make this bet with me? Or are you just talking out your backside again.

While I think NEM would be foolish to take your bet, I think that the bolded section should be removed. If Hobbs is beaten out in training camp doesn't that mean that he is not as good as people think, ergo NEM is correct?

so it only works if Hobbs is cut not replaced - hell he'll be on the roster next season no matter what so it needs to be not starting and the language should remain the same

There are multiple possibilities to cause Hobbs not start at CB in the 2007 opener. The item you bolded is one of the two possibilities I understood to meet NEM's criteria - if Hobbs is such a poor CB, then he will be cut from the team or lose his starter's job to another CB - any other possibility involves factors not related to Hobbs' performance.
EDIT: By the way, this is NEM's bet. I'm just the poor sap he's going to take advantage of with his vast knowledge of football - as for foolish, we are talking about NEM aren't we?

I guess I misread it. I thought it was saying that Hobbs losing his job in training camp would dsiqualify the bet, and that seemed odd.

The point is, we don't think NEM is correct. The only thing that would concern me about this is how Belichick sometimes matches guys up and there's a small chance that Hobbs could still be "the starter" but not actually be on the field the first play due to a matchup against, say, a big WR - but as he played 1-1 against the solidly sized Wayne, that's a very unlikely scenario.
