          I don't know exactly how to interpret that but it looks like SBR is pulling away. That would be predictable. Lots of nickel-and-dimers in forumland where the loose change would be a major deal-making issue.

          A more important graph would relate to profit. SBR is grabbing market share but at what cost?

          I'm sure if SBR started paying 10 bucks a post, they could move that graph even more but it doesn't mean it is good business. I'm not saying the points aren't good business. Maybe they are paying for themselves. I have no idea.

              You've got to spend money to make money and I'd say the points program more than pays for itself. Don't forget other additions like SBRpicks - running more contests has never been easier thanks to that and keeps a lot of people glued in here.

                  http://siteanalytics.compete.com/sbr...herxforum.com/ is a decent measuring site too. In some industries you see someone Walmart up and take out the locals. But there is room for many sites and forums in the sports betting world. Anyone who wants to invest in their site has a chance at offering something users will come back for. As SBR grows, we don't necesarily take from a Covers whos biggest thing is their stats. But forum-only site will lose traffic regardless because the internet is different than 10 years ago. Interactive forums, technology with Facebook Groups, Twitterers, and Youtube Groups will eventually eat away at any site in any industry that relies on posting only. The internet is smaller these days with these huge networks. You either build your own or try to latch on.

                      EOG should be happy that they only have the serious gamblers there now! Don't need clowns like me there!

                            I think it should be time for SBR to lower the points required for big time items. All this extra revenue has to come back to the posters who caused the spike in ratings.

                              Traffic numbers are relative to what is offered both in quality and quantity in the long run. I don't consider the EOG a competitor except in the narrow category of forums. In fact that chart only compares forums and does not include SBROdds, Sportsbooreview, SBRPicks, SBR.tv, ect, where they do not compete.

                                trust me fellas as an industry insider SBR is pulling away and is the most respected board , whenever a book has a complaint at SBR forum they flip over it and do what they can do fix it .... on the other hand a post at EOG or some other board is nothing.

                                SBR is a traffic beast and now with the points even more.

                                        3-5-1 for some ...probably 3-6 for most. I'm sure the owner of the forum he went to will be contacting SBR soon. His season is over.

                                        Thu.

                                        East Carolina +12.5 (+100) for 1 unit

                                        Fri.

                                        La. Tech +20 (+100) for .25 unit

                                        Sat.

                                        Kansas St. +3 (-110) for 2.5 units
                                        Duke +7.5 (-102) for 2.5 units

                                          Looks like he lost 5 out of 6 of the 2.5 units as well as the 1 unit on Thursday.

                                              It's a marathon not a sprint, pavy. He will beat the books for sure next week.

                                                He went 1-0 on Friday, you can't do better than that - how can he be done?

                                                      Are we going to see the end of his 24 year college football winning record?

                                                      I've been around to see a lot of monumental events. The death of John Lennon, the fall of the Berlin Wall, Nelson Mandela being released from jail and the time Robyn had an avatar of her wearing lingerie - each one an iconic moment in anyone's life. But the end of the 24 year run might just top them all.

                                                        He will come back. He will draw strength from the undefeated Friday night pick of 0.25 units and build from there. He is not a quitter. I have faith in him.

                                                            Sure I do. I was 8 years old and getting ready for school and it said on the radio how he had been shot.
