Title: The Funeral of Sparky Mandrill
Post by: Dominic on April 17, 2023, 01:30:07 PM
As some of you who’ve read the other thread about Terrance Shannon know that Sparky has officially about 6 weeks left on this board.  May 31 is the last day guys can pull out of the NBA Draft.


So with that in mind, I think a month long funeral for this poster would be a nice way to share some of your best memories of him.  Here are mine.

#1.  Sparky was the biggest John Groce fan I have ever read.  This guy was all in on Groce even in Year 5.  It was kind of odd that the results that got Weber fired were actually celebrated by Sparky.  You’d think if someone hated Weber for poor results would hate Groce equally for even poorer ones, but alas nope.

#2.  Sparky being triggered by the word “faggot”.  Well this faggot has about 6 weeks left, and then he’s gone.

Please share your Sparky memories here in this thread. It’s really a tribute to one of the dumbest pieces of triggered shit I’ve ever read.

I wish your dad pulled out of your mom sooner…

Some day maybe another person will give a shit about you Dom.

Probably not, because of who you are, but maybe.

You're at least smart enough to recognize that 100% of this board hopes you lose, right?

What's funny reading this thread is knowing that if Dom loses this bet, he won't pay up - again - because he's a fucking pussy beta.

I am sure a poll, even sans Tempo's mults, would reveal that more people would miss Angry Spark over Bet Welcher Extraordinaire Dom.

Literally zero people, on this board or off it, care about or like Dominic so - that's not really a fair fight.

You lost a 42-0 bet and you are still posting here.  Run along

As Miles Leonard aptly noted, there was never any bet because who would ever bet with a bet welching scum sucking pedo like you? You have lost so many posting rights bets, yet, Custard still lets you hang around. Granted, the video of your sorry sweaty ass and squeaky voice, which everyone across multiple Illini boards mocked you for the loser that you are, was hilarious. So there was a payoff to having you around.

I don’t think PAMAn ever agreed to that bed did he? It can’t be a bet if someone doesn’t agree to it.

Exactly. I was never going to bet him because he never has abided by a post rights bet ever. He was 0-42 in abiding by posting rights bets.

Custard, perhaps it's time for you to reevaluate the purpose of this message board, including the Deuce category.  It's your call, but I think a little pruning is in order.

I recall him making a post explicitly saying that Northwestern would beat Illinois.

So one can presume that you aren’t going to make a post like that unless you believe what you are writing.

And if you believe what you wrote, it’s be fair to suggest you are willing to wager on that belief correct?

I believed Rory McIlroy would win The Masters, but I wouldn’t and didn’t bet on it. Directly, anyway.

Then you didn’t really believe it.

This board would function far better if you only put down opinions that you actually believed in, than making inflammatory statements that you really don’t when called on it

I thought that was from day trading or driving Ubers.

I haven't tried either of those yet.  Which is probably why I'm not a billionaire.

My claim is and has always been that it hasn’t been decided yet whether he’s coming back, which is true.  He literally doesn’t know and won’t until he gets through the NBA stuff.

I’m happy to take his bet though.  Not that he’ll pay up, because he’s a pussy.

You wouldn't wager on the illini basketball team winning 20 games after predicting just 17 wins.

There's no bigger pussy on the various Illini boards.

Wouldn't surprise me if Squeaky's maxed out all his credit cards and is unable to make bets.
