Am watching the show for the first time currently in season two and this has been so bugging me . The only thing I can think of is his repeated statement in the first season that using his god powers harms mortals possibly he ' s considered it but is too afraid of Val getting hurt in some way . It ' s fairly obvious that statement is the result of trauma and not actually true , but he still believes it . But yeah , he could totally bet Olaf $ 50 that he ' ll get Valerie pregnant before some deadline and have it work . I ' m unclear on whether the powers kick in if there ' s no actual prize involved . <| sep |> Every Simpsons Ever update Homer has been relocated to Capitol City because his stint as Dancing Homer for the Springfield Isotopes has been so amazing .
