    TheRx is the most successful of the one-trick forum only ponies. TheRx and SBR are in a dead heat in forum traffic but if you add up the SBRLines and other SBR sites it is not even close. TheRx squandered their opportunity to the market share by investing their time and resources into a DonBest like line service instead of things that their posters would find useful and entertaining.

    TheRx will always be special but they are on track to be a very distant 3rd to Covers and SBR. I know I'm bias but the numbers dont lie.
    Rx get 1000 viewers on the "service plays" forum (basically just content gathered from other sites---other peoples work) and 150 in their community forum---exact opposite for SBR. Enough said. I would hate to be part of community which most people come to get info and leave.

      Not to mention the friction and eventual loss of a rather important sponsor/advertiser (CRIS/BM) due to that decision.

        johnny, i think fishler should be suspended for 1 week from sbr for making that comment.. and he said it right to your face..


        when does the 1 week suspension begin? don't worry johnny, i got your back on this one.. i think 1 week is being generous too.. he should get 4 months for that comment..
        Its kind of like I mentioned the Rx'ers from Rick to Wil on down are oblivious of their competition. Rick actually did not even know the Covers forums were busy, wayyy more busy than the Rx. Fish is or was on the Rx payroll for so long I'm sure he believes this too so give him a pass. I'd rather compete with the oblivious anyway.

          Right on the money! love it at Covers and right here at SBR, both forums have made improvements that really raised the bar. RX was very good for quite a while but have declined dramatically. EOG is just a clown act in cyberspace, I wouldn't even mention the Shrink's "operation" in the same breadth as the other three.

          Those guys are informed but that doesn't translate into winning picks, I've tracked them over the years and their results are consistently unexceptional.

                What do you guys think about TheRX?
                They are just like all the other watchdogs. Nothing but a big scam. If you pay enough, any watchdog will rate you a A Book. Then they want you to click their banners when signing up so they get a cut. Then they moderate you like they own the world and hide behind the keyboard. They pay posters that are so phucking gay it makes you want to puke. But all the losers like the queers so it drives up traffic which is what they want so they can charge more for advertising because they cant make money gambling on their own. Most watchdog owners are losers.

                    Horse was Mr. Ed

                    Mr. Ed talked to a guy named Wilbur.

                          The fact that sbr backbone is legit critique of books and dispute help, puts them ahead. I hope they don't mess it up with too much worthless fluff.

                            They're NOT Out To Give You Picks The Good Ones

                            Those guys are informed but that doesn't translate into winning picks, I've tracked them over the years and their results are consistently unexceptional.[/quote]

                            They give you the lo down on specific tms & upcoming games. It's up to you to be smart enough to use this info and cap the games and MOST importantly beat the #, to get the best possble line. NO they don't hold your hand and say "here now do this"! There is no better source anywhere for the Big12 than the "Sooner" boys. And most of the WC guys are very good. There is room for good cappers, no matter what forum they might post in. We'll see what some of your SBR "All Stars" do in 37 days!!

                              SBR VERY weak in comparison IMO. Hope it gets better! Can always use new INFORMED sources!!
