Buyer beware pal.

Of course BI is more at fault. I do not think SBR intentionally gave a fraud book a strong rating. However BI did give SBR tons of money through various income streams which did affect SBR's publicly stated opinions of BI.

The bettors who got screwed whether they were sharp, square, or in between are angry at SBR because without SBR propping up BI there would have been zero chance BI would have gotten their money. BI road on the coattails of SBR's credibility and the people who trusted SBR got hurt by it. Without the backing of SBR 90% of the posters here ( if not more) do not send a dime to BI.

I see you are an SBR pro, attended the SBR bash, and have even been poster of the month. You are a supporter of SBR and I don't blame you, it seems like a real cool site. However these people really really got hurt and I do not blame them for being majorly stressed and angry.
