I know that were our roles reversed I would never try and collect on it if the season ended the same way. It's only a hundred bucks, but it's the principle of it.

What are the thoughts here? Should I pay up?
I do the same bet, but it continues into the playoffs, and the team that makes it farther(or the most game wins) wins. But I don't think you should call your bet until the play in is over. If the Oilers don't make the playoffs, I don't see how he can say he won.
