Exclamation Swear on my mother's life play of the century!!

I swear on my mother's life that this play will hit. If it doesn't, well, I guess that sucks for her, but I am 100% positive this will hit.

For my "Swear On My Mother's Life" play, I am taking West Virginia (-5) as Bob Huggins returns to Cincinnati to crack that whore Nancy Zimpher in the skull!!

(Oh yeah, and the Bearcats, too!)

I haven't yet told my mother that I'm putting her life on this play, but I don't think she will mind. Besides, I'm very superstitious, and last year when I made a "Swear On My Dead Brother's grave" post, it hit, as the Kansas City Chiefs covered the spread against New England on opening day!!

Anyway, my mother is getting up there in age -- she's already 65 -- so this isn't risking as much as some of you might think. Her best days are well behind her, and I think she appreciates just how good of a coach Bob Huggins is.

I'm making this a 20* unit play, and I will be watching with my mother while holding a baseball bat in one hand and a bottle of brandy in the other!!!

This one's for you, mom!!

Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

OK guys, my mom sort of freaked out when I told her about this play. I thought she would find it funny but clearly she did not as she too is superstitious. I offered to go back on the play but she said to keep it as she is also very confident in Bob Huggins' coaching ability and the fact that he will be determined to beat his former team in their building.

However, mom does not like traveling alone, and I'd hate to send her to her grave without proper company. So, it is only necessary that I make an additional "Swear on my father's life" play!! Don't feel bad for him, he's a real asshole and has tried to screw me over several times during my childhood, such as the time he left me all by myself at an amusement park -- now called the Abusement Park -- at which point I was nearly kidnappped!

So, now I'm torn. Mother deserves to stay, but father doesn't. So, I'm going to stick with the original pick and think West Virginia gets it done and mother stays here, but let's send father to the moon with a real stinker. Let's take Michigan (+2.5) at home against Purdue (they'll get their can kicked!) and hope for the best!

TAKE MICHIGAN (+2.5)
