    Does The Prick have job security?

    What is the official word from SBR brass?

    Is this like the NFL where they say the coach is not in jeopardy, then fire his ass on Monday?

    With his sorry ass constantly losing, they should save the money, have Shari make the picks and rename it "Beat the B*ach"

    What are the odds he is canned?

    -240?

    au contraire my friend

    Each week SBR gives out 150pts, worth about $7k in pizza.

    Each week he goes 5-0 they save that much, over the course of 17 weeks you would expect to hit 5-0 at least twice.

    The prick gets the full amount if he goes 5-0. Him not going 5-0 is much better for sbr. The more those points get spread out the less likely it is they all end up getting used for purchases at store.

    So him losing week in and out is good. He goes 4-1 and those points get distributed to a small subset of people increasing the percentage that are likely converted to dollars.

    Guys, his job isnt in jeopardy because his record, like Chi pointed out, that money is already considered given away, its just how its allocated.

    What his jib should be in jeopardy for is his lame ass videos. Every week is the same thing, "watch me go 5-0" From 1-10, his entertainment value is a 0.

    Even if the Prick won those points. He would use it on wardrobe stuff like the sbr hawaiian shirts. Im sure he could get a different color for everyday of the week. A few sbr caps and sportsbooks cash and he would be ready for a weekend on the town with the ladies.

    If that were the case, I would agree with you. However, there is nothing to indicate this is the case. The fact that SBR jokes about his job being on the line in the videos could provide insight that he gets paid no matter what.

    Chi is right, no matter how he does doesn't affect the actual money payouts. Also, SBR keeps non pros in the contest for over half the contest knowing that the broke diks will hog up over 50% of the betpoints per week, assuring minimal point debt to posters that can actually use the points won. Even after week 9 only a percentage of freeplays from pros that beat the prick will turn into actual betpoints.

    The Prick plays the part well.
