    The RX has put me on post review before I even posted!
    Ok boys, we all know the forum owners are a bit on the nervous side. I know we all have our favorites and mine has always been SBR. Maybe it's your first love kind of thing but I truly believe this site is unique and not content to follow a tired blueprint. But even the boys here can be..overzealous, shall we say. No problem, I behave myself and get along fine.

    However, I must say I have a grand old time playing super tout in a few of the other forums as they are so old and crotchety, it gives them a reason to despise me. Well, that comes with a price and that is normally suspension or banishment. The irony is, I don't even care about promoting my site. If people want to visit they will but they sure as hell won't visit it if you're pushing it in their face! Anyway, I decided to check out the RX and they put me on post review after 1 post in which I basically said "hi".

    You know boys, SBR is like a delicate filet. Succulent and delicious. But every now and again you feel like hamburger just to remind you how good the filet is. Well, I guess it's filet from now on because McDonald's apparently doesn't want me!

      Thank you Joe. I knew I could count on support from my fellow filet lovers.

            Oh yes, there's so much more to the story...glad you asked. After I voiced my displeasure with their Draconian tactics, they apologized and sent me a free $200 play at Rebate Wager with the only condition being that I not respond to any questions by a pseudo sarcastic poster named JEK. Ooops, look what I've done.

                  Let me give you a tip:

                  If you have a rap sheet and want to sign up at a new forum incognito use a new name.

                    Pavy, quite honestly, if they ban me before I even make a post it's because they don't "get me." Now I'm not everyone's cup of tea but if they aren't reading between my lines and they truly believe I'm an obnoxious tout as opposed to someone who likes to have a few laughs (which is in essence who I am) then I don't think I'd last very long anyway.

                            SJ, The Rx puts every new member on post review. Its nothing personal. They review your posts a while to make sure you're gonna play by the rules. If you post a few days and are real nice, just PM Wilheim & ask to be taken off.

                            With that being said, that place is the old shit, nobodys doin that no mo!!!

                            Fuk Rx. I guess it's ok for posters over 60. Its like the retirement home for forum gamblers. SBR is where its at. There are a couple other forums, actually one, that I consider to have sports gaming content that rivals SBR, but when you add in the entertainment value here, this is the only place to be.

                              you wouldnt be banned for promoting your site anyway, its just a blog and you're not selling anything, I dont think. I might have blog going during football season & having a link in my sig. Just with info on my picks, that doesnt violate any rules. Your site is neat, keep it up.

                                  Thanks Profit. One slight correction however. I was immediately recognized by one of the Mods (betonallsports, I think) and he said after my very first post, which wasn't reviewed, that he was going to put me on post review because I was a "known tout". I then asked him where that ranked with known pedophile, known rapist, known pornographer, known groper...and naturally that post did not see the light of day.

                                  Ridiculous, particularly when you take into account all I said was hello basically. Never mentioned or alluded to my site. Oh well, I have no doubt the Rx is kind of like reading yesterday's newspapers. At one time relevant, no more. However, to be fair (which is far more than they were), I have not had an opportunity to honestly review the site so consider the previous comment a bit of sour grapes on my part.

                                        are you a tout or used to be one? You don't sell picks on your site do you?

                                        I mean fuk, here we have a resident tout, LT, and he's the most loved man on the forum. It takes all kinds to make the world go round

                                          Did you know they are a band name The Swinging Johnsons? And yeah the one smiling is probably at the bottom of the lake now being eaten by giant catfish.

                                            Profit, I have a site which does not ask for a single dime, a sign up, an email address or anything but 2-4 minutes of your time to listen to my podcast. Not because I'm trying to sell you time-share mind you but because that's how I announce my picks. The only reason I run this site is if someone wants to hear me or see some of my writing and may wish to hire me as a free lance writer, creative director, etc.. That's why when I first mentioned my site at Peeps, they came after me like I was asking them to subscribe to Ikillsmallanimals.com or something equally as heinous. I was at first taken aback but then realized how much fun I could have by living up to their "expectations". It became a sort of game and they (outside of a few who understood I was playing the role of the villain) just got infuriated as they're a bunch of bust out gamblers who have become so bitter, anyone that looks like a tout aka handicapper is immediately brandished as a liar, thief, etc...even when though i told them time and time again I don't sell my picks! It was fun for me while it lasted though.

                                              No, seriously? I know there is a comedy troupe called the Swinging Johnson Brothers. That's funny.

                                                            That's illegal as well here. Ok, here's the deal. Take my name, add the word sports, then dot com. Check out a section at the top of the page called Caught in the Net. It's just stuff from around the net. Lousy day today for me. Both picks flamed. Oh well, new week is upon us.
