    SBR Forums used to be way better . . . .
    Was tooling around going through some old posts (like 4+ years ago) and SBR was way better then. Sex, money and sports (not always in that order) all the while Shari rolling her eyes at us.

    JJ used to be a better poster. Would post some pretty funny self deprecating stuff.

    Posters were more entertaining too. Now it's all about the troll or trying to get as many comments as possible.

    I've been away awhile and just recently came back to the forum please tell me it gets better once football season starts.

    The sky is blue.

    Nah, it won't get better. We lost a lot of good posters. It is slow season, but entertainment wise, it will never be the same.

        Guy has been back for 5 minutes and already telling us we aren't cool enough. He has a point about JJ though, guy was a legend back when I first started, now just a C- poster at best

                            There was a younger, much broker crowd back in the day. I think JJ Gold and the mods did a good job running off the unstable bums.

                                  been with forum for 10 years. All the same to me. Cool posters come and go. Most guys are cool. Once in a while a bully comes in but JJ usually shuts those types down.

                                        This is most definitely the slow season, things should pick up once football rolls around. One big problem these days though is that there are very few actual handicappers. Nobody makes picks anymore, or explains the reasoning for their picks. It's too much work for the amount of harassment one will take from the trolls.

                                          Wrong. This is what you see.

                                            That is what it looks like. But I figured the discussions would get better once football started.

                                              In my opinion this is one the biggest problems. You can scroll through pages of picks, but how many of them have any solid rationale or shrewd insight that might compel one to get on board with said pick?

                                              Goat Milk may be a polarizing figure around these parts but I value his pick threads for the simple reason that he usually submits well-thought out explanations to go with them. Whether I agree or disagree with his pick is irrelevant if he can present an angle that maybe hadn't crossed my mind and shed new light on the game.

                                              Bozos like Lakerboy, Twizzler, Seaweed etc. will start an entire new thread with literally nothing but their pick (and maybe number of units) and a flood of meaningless banter amongst blathering idiots will ensue.

                                              Then you have the "fade the public" crowd, the poster-child of which is The Money Shot, who bring nothing to the table other than some disposable slop akin to "85% is on Team A... Team B is a mortal lock. Square burial tonight!"

                                              What this town needs is some dadgum, good old-fashioned, grassroots handicapping!

                                                                When I first signed up, there were all sorts of hot women posting here. Poker was legal, people were winning tons of money from books. JJ still had hair and TT was still fat. Wasn't all glorious. Had to post on a desktop. No mobiles. Usually had to walk in the snow for miles to access them. Uphill, both ways.
