Welcome to the club, there is a whole big group of guys that don't like him.

Please pick one of the options below for a bet of $100. A) At least 95% of all US coins are certified B) Less than 95% of all US coins are certified If you pick B, that means you agree with Baseball, so what the heck are you arguing about?[/QUOTE]
