    Are you entertained by seeing who picks what????? I'm NOT. Need more analysis, trends, and statistics than picks. Any knucklehead can make a bad pick. Just as Charles Barkley said, any knucklehead can score it takes desire and guts to get rebounds. Give the forum something it can use. We ALL make picks, who cares about that???

    That's all I was saying when I started the thread. Put the picks in a pick forum or saloon. Doesn't need to clog up the Players Talk forum before every game. Just damned non sense. Same shit every damned day..............bad picks every damned day

    There is no Mount Rushmore of Picks. We as a whole were .500 in the BTP contest. There is absolutely no one on the site worth following for picks. No one

    Methinks the OP never visited the CFL thread.

    I believe I owe that thread a final review.

    I am entertained by the non sports threads. I don't come to SBR for people's plays.

    For review I mostly just meant the final numbers of the season. That said, reflecting on why certain decisions were made and how the market was behaving can only stand to help the bettor. There was winning market analysis almost weekly.

    One of your complaints was random darts being posted with no reasoning. The CFL thread offered a score prediction for every game played after week three as well as detailed analysis on them.

    The principals taught in that thread can be applied to any market or sport.

    For those who followed it was a true earn while you learn experience.

    I saw nothing like it on SBR before the thread and have seen nothing like it since. I had a few things going on during the NFL and College season and couldn't put time in to give the same analysis for the forum.

    The CFL thread should be read by anyone at anytime if they want to better themselves. Some have re read it many times. That said, the real time experience as the thread unfolded wasn't matched anywhere.

    This site is no longer for the players its a board for the books. SBR figured out awhile ago we dont really offer them as much revenue, but being a patsy for the books and making people believe they are their for player oversight but really they use us to go to books to get more cash in exchange for better grading and traffic steering to certain books. Books that are graded high that have no business being graded that way are because they spend money with SBR and if they can steer people to being losers and picking losers they can drive up the money they receive from books. Thats why 5Dimes gets away with as much as they do here because its SBR's gravy train of cash. But it all doesnt work unless winners arent being posted here on big games. Big games need to have high amounts of posts steering towards trash picks. Theres a reason people have received inbox messages when they pick too many winners

    I'm confused. Does SBR receive a portion of our deposits or portions of what we rollover?

    The original post was spot on.

    We're all for any reasonable discussion that helps people in any aspect of handicapping games and making money. Everything else is a complete waste of time.

    This place dies down big time after March madness

    Site needs posters like seaweed to generate traffic with annoying bs posts

    Odds that poster Big Bear is unbanned by baseball season have to be around -750

    Guy is a posting machine in the dog days of summer when this place is a ghost town

    Walker is winning
