    I just signed up to be pro this week, how bout that bonus being for all pro signups this week?

    Thank you Mighty.

    Lot of inquiries. Bet Jam and all the other factors. I know there are a lot of fence sitters. Belly up and lets get this done. Pro is the way to be around here.

    What is the difference in these and a $50 gift card to Amazon or WalMart or wherever?

    people are still so confused about sbr pro status

    What if we get a new member today and they have all the sites?

    Which ones are usa and non usa

    Why should anyone deposit at one if their live support sucks and don't even care if you deposit

    Are you really this dumb? Go deposit $200 of our taxpayer dollars we send you into one of the books and start making bets. WTF do you need live support for? Read their rules and follow them.

    John is losing ground big time and pressing. Too busy marketing to Soccer fags and Euros creating 15 different Soccer boards.

    Take a look at covers NCAAF and NFL boards. They are pages deep with fresh posts. They have an established American base that will come back in preseason and they dont even have points and little incentive. Meanwhile SBR boards are completely dead and posts are mostly useless. No established poster base at all after 5 years running.

    You get what you ask for when you turn SBR's image into an all male facebook for 20 somethings to dick around

    to hugh Morris and ? the others who didn't get any bonus points for going pro last year:

    I didn't either. But the way it worked last year was that only those making a deposit at that time got the bonus points. I already had more than 200 in the account I went pro with . Probably same with you. So we didn't get skipped - it was the way the rules were then.

    Some people can see wat is truly going on around here. The number of those people are starting to out number the ones like you who don't or act like they don't.

    From wat I have seen SBR is never so forthcoming with such information. If they truly are getting 71% renewals they should be happy to have that. US SBRpros out number the non US SBRPro considerably and the way they have been given the cold shoulder around here, SBR should not expect more than wat they are getting. Not even close to a year into the pro program and they were already taking away and reducing the things that were there as incentive to become pro in the first place.

    Non-pros are made to feel as they need to become pro and now with alot of renewals coming up Pros being made to feel that renewal is expected of them. Not only should we not renew, but the pros that don't should quit playing at the affiliated accounts currently tagged by SBR.

    The customer is always right and alot of customers have been disgruntled here lately. So far SBR has not listened and instead still continues to add insult to injury. Acting like WE are the ones that need to get with "the program"

    Love the passion. If you decide not to renew we respect your decision. The majority will. BTP will be a lot of fun and the Pros will clean up. We will do our best to make it fun for everyone.

    You guys on the fence get that Pro app in and enjoy another fun year.

    I just dont see any reasons why not to renew pro status if you are betting online. For USA members there are free pizzas, gift cards and other stuff, members from other countries can buy cash. It is great free stuff.
