I would advise you to change this. You won't regret it.
I agree. Change it by even forgetting the name "Coldplay". You won't regret it.

I concur. Forced meself to sit thru about 20 minutes of several of their tracks. Tedious, repetitive riffs characterized by simpering melody and inane, meaningless & redundant lyrics.

Yet they are millionatards and I'm still just a country doctor, Jim... not a bricklayer. :evil:

I just irrationally loathe all wagers that aren't evenly divisible by $200, even if the wager is perfectly fine and even in the ideal range. Bugs me.
Ooh! Shouldn't have said that.

If your future J! opponents are lurking here, they know to make sure their DD wagers end in 7.
