I felt that it was necessary for me to confirm my bet in a video wearing my NY Giants Hoodie which I received as a gift from my parents in the Early 90’s.

If you want to follow along the conversation while I count the days till Julio writes for my blogs feel free to use the #PapaRebelde hashtag.

If you want to learn more about the Bet feel free to jump over to myprevious post (Prediction Giants Win & @julito77 Writes for @Papaheroes #PapaRebelde).

Any topics you would like Julito to cover on Papaheroes after the Giants win?

Update: Evidence that @julito77 is a bit Delusional

As I have expressed previously on this blog I Love to Gamble. Given that I also become a fan of the New York Giants when they are in the SuperBowl I went ahead and used my passion of Gambling and my love for the Giants in creating a bet with my good friend Julio Varela better known as @julito77 on twitter.

Julio Varela Accepts the Bet

When the Giants Win!

When the New York Giants win Julio will have to write for a full week (5 Posts I will give him the weekend off) for Papaheroes and Veglatino so he better be looking for at least one Vegan Latino recipe to share with us.

If the Patriots Get Lucky

On the other side let’s say the Patriots get Lucky and use their not so ethical practices of sending Spies over to the Giants and win the Game. I will be writing 5 posts for Latino Rebels.

So until SuperBowl Sunday you can stay up to date as Julito gets ready to write even more than he does already for a full week at Papaheroes.com

Here is a video he created and you can follow the action on twitter or Google Plus with Hashtag #PapaRebelde.

So far I have never seen a Game where the Giants are in the Super Bowl and they lose so I appreciate the help Julio will be giving us at Papaheroes.com for a week.

My Online Brother from Another Mother Is Job Searching

Back in march I wrote “3 People who I Have Shared Great Online Experiences With” and forgot one individual  who is one of my online mentors and someone I look forward to meeting in person someday. Ever since I published that post I new I had to make it up to this person and now is the perfect moment because maybe you and I can help him reach another level in his career.

I guess many religions use the word brother when they are talking about people around them or from the church. A few years ago I met a talented and charismatic individual online who caught my attention because he created the #VivaViernes hashtag which is the Spanish Version of #FollowFriday.

Being the online moderator for Puerto RIco of FollowFriday.com ,I used to religiously send #FF’s every friday (it would take me hours). Later on I realize that other people just did it to make others return the #FF and I had to find better use of my time. So now I send #FF to one or two individuals periodically. But when I do I use the #VivaViernes hashtag to complement it.

The first time I saw my online brother from another mother, he was actually thanking me on a video he created (which he created every friday) and mentioning a few people who supported him. The fact that he took the time to say thanks while I was still trying to understand the dynamics of twitter was something that made me feel great.

Since then I have admired @julito77 better known as Julio Varela for being genuine. I have collaborated with @julito77 on various projects online. I really have gotten a lot of value from our conversations. I have to say that @julito77 was the only other contributor on @twitpuerto , an online blog in spanish regarding the  use of twitter. Everyone else that was going to collaborate quit on me, but Julito came through.

Julito always has a great sense of humor and is always looking for every opportunity to help out those in need.

One of the most interesting things I found out about Julito on his visualcv.com was that he Shaped and Revised Univision’s Social Media Strategy and Execution Plan.

Please take a look at Julio’s visualcv and feel free to contact @julito77 if there is an opportunity.

It would  mean a lot if you could forward his cv to someone that would benefit from @julito77 career achievments. He is definetely an asset to any company hiring him.
