    Retirement

    It has to happen eventually. Some retire early. Other's never retire. Some retire at the appropriate time. It all depends on the individual.

    After years of posting fades and a couple of winners here and there I'm retiring. It's boring boys. The site has very little volume and there is no benefit. I'm not helping or hurting anyone. I was trying to help people make money by fading but no one is looking.

    Posting plays is something I enjoyed when there was discussion. Currently no discussion. Some were complaining to mods that I posted too many plays.

    No worries that won't happen.

    Cheers men

    I'm going to enjoy retirement

    Maybe just post all plays in one thread amd don't read what everyone is saying. If you don't feel posting plays for a while don't but just keep one thread where you occasionally post a play.

    I retired 8/7 and there was no credit given to my play which you obviously tailed.

    Semi-retirement MAYBE. Retirement = you don't have the discipline. Lets start a pool = who guesses Lakerboy's new SBR_ID first.

    Already ahead of you bro.

    Ran that contest and dickslapped and still get told I know nothing about NBA. Posted 100 plays, checked in every day even when I was down big units and still fired away.

    Posted plays and screenshots on this site for 10 years, but I don't gain anything from it anymore.

    Wizzle and Paco gone.

    Gonna be done from this site too very soon.

    When you start to shake and get cold sweats, remember that a good ole MLB bet is just the thing.

    Enjoy your time away from posting and keep in touch.

    I also said I would retire if Biden wins because I want my Trump bet to win. You retired before I did. 2020 is a terrible year.

    I’m retiring until Covid is over have been for weeks to many variables it’s like betting the day before or after a all star game every day I felt like all the methods I used in the past and was profitable did not work as well I walked away a winner I hope to be back someday once some normalcy returns to this world. What can I say went on lavish vacations paid cash for 2 vehicles and still got a nice stash put away thinking about exploring other avenues all I can say is I’m a hustle and I’ll keep on doing that but this hustle has got to go for now gl bro

    Not missing out on much. You and Carolinakid were pretty much the main two ppl I looked at each day besides Otters. Posting plays is a thankless job for the most part. You need to hit like 75% to appease the trolls.

    This is a bad look, Lakerboy. I have a feeling if the Sixers and/or Kings would have covered, this thread wouldn't exist. This is a "I'm taking my ball and going home" kinda thread. That's not the Mamba mentality.

    this format is dead. Its like 20 years old which in the internet game is about 6 lifetimes, I enjoy SBR but I doubt they are attracting much new business.

    It will keep getting worse.

    I will be here until the bitter end though.

    LB your plays don't always have to win to helpful.

    The insight & opinions matter also.

    Thats what we do here.

    Share info & compare angles.

    And yours is just as important as anyone else's
