    8 years ago to the day I joined SBR

    Time sure flies. I remember being lured over here by another respected veteran poster. We had been posting at the now defunct B2G Forum which closed its doors in the mid 2000s. Lots of ups and downs here at SBR over the years but I can say that the online sportsbetting world is better off with SBR than without it. It's a shame that most of the sharp posters left the forum years ago, but that is likely more a function of the online betting climate than anything else.

    8 years of being a loser?

    never be proud of being a degenerate gambler

    being a gambler and posting in sbr forum is nothing to be proud of...1 year or 8 years.

    we are all bunch of degenerates here in sbr

    if you really want to be proud..quit gambling and sbr...and go do something worthwhile in your life. Go spend more time with your kids and family. Take your wife out to more dates...spend more time going outdoors. That makes your life more fulfilling.

    Dont be proud of being a barrelled in fuk who gambles and posts at sbr for 8 years...thats not something you should be proud of.

    It was more fun back then ....you could win contest for cash and use that to stay in action. I think the talent of the cappers remains the same I could win back then I can win now. I think there are a lot more flames and a lot more useless trolls posting now for what ever reason.

    I respectfully disagree

    When I was busy with other things behind the scenes I always got bombarded with questions on the forum I answered fairly fast. Hell, I'll tell ya it wasn't easy remembering all that book info on the fly but I think I did a pretty decent job at it don't you sir?

    Yes sir. Guys like you and Fishhead are the exception. Most of the "power posters" add very little value or substance to the forum.

    Truth be told I didn't really care for some of that behind the scenes stuff because my presents was always needed on the forum. Here is the prime example of what I'm referring to.
