    The New SBR...I can see why John left
    John didn't walk away, he ran. And with good reason. This was never meant to be a dating forum...it's sports people. Many decent posters have headed for door as well. You promised a decent handicapping forum and you gave us crap. Can't blame him for leaving.

                SBR was a great place way before MO got here. . . Nothing against him, but I don't see how he has helped out SBR that much. He is a poster, just one of us.

                    It's not personal; I was just looking forward to a forum for betting only. How would you feel if your posts were misdirected to a different forum than you intended. Dan and Bill did that today...and I'm obviously ticked off.

                      I would probably think about why they moved it and realize that it didn't belong in that forum.

                        nobody is keeping you here. You are free to go elsewhere. Instead you cry here because you feel you are entitled to something you aren't.

                          I admire a post which contains both conciseness and common sense.

                            I'm pretty sure John isn't leaving his business and job because of an influx of idiots to the message board.

                              You should probably read the original posts before jumping in ignorant...but I guess that's just in your nature.

                                I'll be the first to admit I don't know a lot about betting. And while I do enjoy sports, I am more of a football (especially college) and NASCAR gal. I like discussing them however, tis not the season

                                      Not crying and not claiming entitlement. Just sorely disappointed.

                                        If you want to get that technical, then many of the Sports Picks in the Main Forum need to be moved to the NFL, NBA, Col BB forums. Yes, Donjuan--let's be consistent.

                                        PS My site suggestion was about the two new forums so it was on point.

                                          The Players Talk forum is more of a catch all forum though. The description is "Player Chat and General Discussion" which basically lends itself to anything. I think the mods are simply trying to ensure that anything in the Think Tank forum is valuable content and that discussions about whether or not forums should be merged should take place elsewhere.

                                              Exactly.....I can't quite understand this relatively new perception that a bunch of people arrived and upgraded the forum. Is there some secretive Hall of Fame somewhere, maybe in Canton, where every now and then some God-like poster emerges from to save us commoners? Comical really.....

                                                So talk of merging the "Think Tank" forum does not belong in the "Think Tank" forum. Makes sense to me. Luckily I can bitch about it here where almost anything goes.

Many decent posters have headed for door as well. You promised a decent handicapping forum and you gave us crap. Can't blame him for leaving.


                                                        Johns plans to leave were over a year in the making. John still has ties to the business. there is a strict capping talk for those that want that, there is a general discussion for people to talk sports, gambling, and shoot the shit. Im not sure what else someone could ask for really.
