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?
'fraid so. Its a technicality but if you dont the guy is going to be all over you forever. The money just isnt worth it.

It'll probably wash once the Oilers lose out and dont make the playoffs.
