    A legend at SBR Forum deserves his story told
    Come around all SBR forum posters for I have a story to tell about one of our own. Yes a fellow SBR member indeed, but also much much more than that. When you list the SBR legends many names come up: jj gold, Nicky, maybe fish, there are many but I will stop there and begin my story.

    As many of you know from an earlier post I am engaged. Currently we are trying to pick out a dj so I met one at a local sports bar to discuss the event and watch a little Rangers baseball! The meeting went well and I received a text from one of my friends that they were meeting up at another sports bar down the street. I proceeded to this location and my 2 friends and I continued watching baseball; on this day the beloved rangers fell to the evil yankee empire. As you can probably assume from my presence here at SBR Forums, I am a gambler. The friends that I shared drinks with also bet on baseball. Sometime around the 7th or 8th inning of a pure yankee beatdown of the Texas Rangers one of my friends began to curse continuously. All of us were upset with the Rangers, but his episode went on for too long for it to be just about Texas. I asked him what was wrong to which he replied, ****ing shit dammit bitch ass ****ing vegas dave i dont know why I trail that guy he lost again! I about choked on my Coors (not because its a disgusting beer but because of what he said) Vegas dave? Could it be the one and only I thought to myself?

    After choking I calmly said Vegas Dave?? He said yes VEGAS DAVE from SBR Forums.com. I always read his articles and he used to do videos but I guess he got bored with them. I sat stunned as he continued to tell the story of Vegas Dave. It was quite hilarious because I had no idea that he even used SBR Forums. I came home and retold this story to Dave in the chatroom and Dave mailed him a hat which he received today. Signed and autographed by the famous Vegas Dave.


    Seems like just yesterday he was just USC kings fan.

    You made it pal.

    This story means you made it.

          Good story l7. The only thing could have been better is meeting a fellow poster on a winner! I don't know Dave's baseball picks record this season but the guy knows bases. He's an MLB Britannica.

                  Right, all you have to do is beat the closing number. How'd that work for you last Tuesday in the totals contest?

                    Over the long run, you're a winner. How did it work out for Nicky in the team contest?

                      Glad to hear you guys got the hat l7ustin. If I don't turn things around he can put it on ebay, it's the only Vegas Dave autographed hat in circulation right now. Should be able to get at least $1.50 for it

                        great answer, onner. you are geting sharper and sharper by the minute here. i am teaching you good. and you did give the right answer.

                        bad #'s do NOT work for 2 weeks or 2 months. they work out over a lifetime..

                        way to show him, onner. you showed him who's boss..

                                what a nightmare that contest was.. it was never updated once throughout..

                                onner, count me in for the next contest, too.. i will repeat the +53 unit and even higher i will get.. we will win repeat.. i will help bring home another championship.. keep the same team, but you must get along better with your teammate tony, and get rid of deuce.. just joking.. we will get you that free money again..


                                sorry boys for interrupting this thread.. carry on back to the topic.. sorry..

                                  I felt several feelings while reading this story. First it was excitement. Then it was awe. Then I smiled but quickly started laughing uncontrollably. Then I screamed and later laughed again while having spasms. At last I cried and felt sorry for not being the pathetic creature described in the story.

                                                      Go ahead. His autograph will fetch -$0.02 on Ebay.

                                                        seems like only yesterday we were helping davey decide the music intro for his show, and now he is a legend

                                                          Within a few weeks everyone will know the story about "that shitty baseball handicapper Vegas Dave on SBR". I can't wait, haha. Glad you got the hat .
