    what has happened to SBR ?
    BBD leaving has been a big blow , ive been lurking the last week and the board is slow.

    JJ doesnt post nearly as much as he does anymore.
    There is no real leadership on the board
    Many posters have left
    Pavy - slick etc some of the best posters here seem to be saving the board.

    The economy is affecting the industry in soo many ways its not even funny.

          It's ridiculous SSLP. I had to go from a successful gambler to losing all my money overnight just to save this board. The board has lost the leadership, variety, spontaneity and is just plain, dull and not fun.

              I am glad you agree Pavy , i mean i looked at the board for 10 min before i decided to post this.

              Sat night used to be a fun night for some of us that rather stay home and make money and gamble than go out to a bar.

              SBR has been an empire for years but they def need an emergency inyection of life into the board

                  I have to admit, the forum has gotten quite dull lately. Somewhere along the line someone dropped the ball. I'd love to hear some suggestions from people about how we could fix things.

                        SSLP, don't be silly. BBD has nothing to do with things being slow. Football is over.

                            SSLP is very sharp. He can see the future and is not looking good. This is the drawback of downsizing. Most mods here, the ones left, are happy to get a paycheck but don't know how to work the forum. They have no previous mod experience. You can't run the show with rookies. BBD was hiding all the other mod deficiencies and now that he is gone the void is like a black hole were everything is sucked in.

                              Robyn , I was following this board way before you even knew they existed . Its my business and my job to know what goes on this board and check it daily .

                              You see it as a hobby I see it as a tool I have been working in this industry for over 8 years now, when i see one of my work tools start to get lost in limbo , i try and help.

                                            I believe its funny.

                                            Truth is guys.. i see it with my own clients I have lost over 25% of my client base in the last 90 days . Guys that have been with me for years dont know what to do .

                                            Downsizing as Pavy mentioned always seems to backfire one way or another.

                                              Unless BBD was a major contributor in the handicapping forums (which I would know nothing about), he brought very little to SBR other than the Wheel of Banishment and Obama-drama threads.

                                                      So you are contributing SBR being slow to the fact that BBD is gone and not because football just ended?

                                                        Ok, Bread just scolded me and told me that I should have consulted with him before posting an anti-BBD statement. Apparently BBD was some big industry guy. My badballs.

                                                        carry on.

                                                            BBD was a legend Robyn. I was here before you started posting and BBD was outstanding in his mod duties. The mod doesn't need to be a good capper. The mod needs to be able to promote discussion and keep the forum fun on dull days like tonite where I find it more entertaining watching paint dry than looking at the threads at PT.

                                                              BBD was good with the halftime threads and his lock plays.

                                                                  Robyn , what books do you play at ?

                                                                  Do you and Bread gamble?

                                                                  How long have you been involved per say in this industry ?

                                                                  Do you ever post anything sportsbook - gambling related ?

                                                                  How many posts do you at the handicapping forum ?

                                                                  Have you the SLIGHTEST idea of what goes on in the industry aside from what you read on this board?

                                                                  Well I do .... your using big words here and sadly you are nothing but a posters that makes the board look funny people laugh at your posts and 5 seconds later they forget about it. Because in the end you cannot provide any gambler here with a word of advice
