    Winning threads versus losing threads...
    What gets more attention?

    A guy that goes 10-0, or a guy that goes 0-10?

        Losing threads draw more comments, vocal posters and buzz.

        Winning threads draw views and silent attention.

            Agreed. Many non members cruise SBR looking to tail and don't join.

            Losing threads only get attention from the regulars.

                Thanks guys.

                This has been very informative.

                I'm working on a college thesis.

                    Jake, who are we taking with the #2 pick?

                    This selection could define the Lakers for the next 15 years. It's crucial they get it right.

                      i think KAT is the correct play but I won't be mad with Okafor. Hopefully retard Jim Buss doesn't do something stupid like trade down or pick D'Angelo Russell.

                        Yeah, I'm sure they'll just take the big man that's available, and it'll most likely be Okafor. I would imagine the only way they take D Russell is if they're convinced they can sign a big free agent (Aldridge, Love, Gasol)

                          0-10 without a doubt. I went on 2 of the better runs in forumville history and was just the usual thread guys in there. Not going all vyomguy...coin in my pocket is all I care about.

                            Both are equally unlikely.
                            All things considered equal, its as hard to go 10-1 as it is to go 0&10.

                              0-10 for sure.

                              We have a lot of posters here who love to say they were on the winning side after the game is over

                              i like Tatddy but he was probably the biggest offender of this. Benny Big Nuts even though i like him too was always on a heater on the plays he didnt post

                                I'll make sure JJ gives you an award.

                                We've been losing too many posters lately. Can't risk losing you.

                                Jay, you're really dropping the knowledge in this thread.

                                Do you come from a mathematical background?

                                  No award needed. Forum has been dead...slow season. Too nice out.

                                    0-10 is more common, no one goes 10-0 enough to know how we would react without posting screen shots or tickets. We ask for dental records on winning bets and harass the hell out of losers by accusing them of betting air/psi. It's a no win situation.

                                            He's not even a member.
                                            I've been told, he isn't even real.

                                                      People looking for attention, or the people that always give it?

                                                          ugggg they're working him out and B Scott isn't ruling out taking him. If the Lakers draft Russell I'm hunting down Jimmy Buss with a fukking compound bow.
