    SBRforum Looking for high caliber handicappers and writers
    Hi Guys!

    SBRforum is looking to add top-flight sports writers and handicappers who enjoy writing to the team! Qualities we are looking for include:
    • Ability to not only gather data that is not regularly available to general public but to interpret what it means and apply an educated opinion. example: the Suns average 110 at home and Pistons average 80 away since the all star break suggesting a total line of 95. However which team has dictated the pace of the game of late? Which team average has influenced the spread more? What is behind the number?

    • Sports guys/girls who enjoy writing and handicapping and illustrating their opinions and breaking down events vs. printing only information gathered on sports sites.

    • Handicappers that enjoy math. Did you see the line move to 3.5 on NFL football and believe that it's hugely valuale to two teams that often play conservative and consistently low scoring game. Tell us the %s and why finding a book that moved to 3.5 on this matchup has value.

    • Humor and entertainment. During a hardcore two hour long capping session, it's nice to come across a piece that can make you chuckle. The delivery of the information counts!


    If any of these sound like you contact picks@sbrforum.com (with "sports analyst" in the subject) to see if your'e a candiate to join our writing staff. No harm in trying! You don't have to be able to pick winners at 60%...just be able to enjoy research, writing and doing the leg work to give the assist to handicappers putting their money on the line.

    The SBRforum writer is a paid position with room to advance to feature writer and beyond.

                I would be interested in doing this. Heck I do it anyway. As long as it doesn't mean me having to sell picks or anything and not being able to post my plays on my thread.

                    I highly recommend sweetjones55 for this position. I have been on SBR for quite some time now. I've followed the best cappers I could find in all sports. Sweetjones55 is the only one who has consistenly kept me in the black on his recommendations. And it's more than just his picks. His analysis is spot on. He puts the time in; he has great knowledge of both the NBA and of handicapping and it shows in his results. He IS the guy for this position, hands down.

                      Seconded on sweetjones55. Not only for his strike rate but also for the way he conducts himself on the forum. He'd represent the forum in a manner you'd want and also has a strong following...see his thread's post/views count.

                      I don't see how you could pick anyone else to be honest.

                            SJ is the man, he is the sole reason I come to SBR on a daily basis.

                              I nominate sweetjones55 for this position. He seems to enjoy what he does here (for free) and obviously doesn't mind putting in the time to get the job done. I have benefited greatly from his picks and his analysis on the games. I really believe he would be a great addition to SBR.

                                SJ would be a pick that I would fully support, he dedicates a lot of time and is extremely skilled sans ego...but in looking out for myself, I would be selling myself short if i didnt point mods to my week in the sbr sportsbook..

                                      where's your hero SJ now?

                                      His run is over, his confidence is shattered.

                                      Tail him at your own risk from this point forward.

                                      Just bein real, seen it happen too many times before.

                                                There's some really good cappers here at SBR that would be great at this. All i know is NBA, MLB, and getting better with NHL, I'm guessing the majority of betting is on the NFL.

                                                    This is a real job position, not a popular contest. So stop the voting.
