              i find it's really not fair now. i swear the questions are getting tougher and tougher each week. in the beginning, they were gimmes.. like 2+2.. now it's all 1972 stuff, 1964 stuff, and stuff no one would have a clue.. and that's just Round 1 where it's supposed to be real easy..

              also, can i make a request. can you guys pls make it 25 seconds now instead of 20.. i barely have time to google the question in 20 secs.. but if i had 25 secs, i'd have got each one to date. those 5 extra secs are so key..

                        Hell if they want to renew his Pro status they will put a 50/50 option in that eliminates two wrong answers.

                                    Yeah that's the one I got about John Wooden, only the second question too. I know he's famous and all but how does anyone know what school he almost went to but didn't 60+ years ago.

                                          Like I said if I am going to keep paying $200 to keep my place at the table I want the 50/50 feature.

                                            Thats false, cause he is a tennis coach not a volleyball coach. You should get to play again

                                              I was so pissed I told SBR Trivia to suck my boob in a thread after I got that one. But then when I thought about it, I think if that crack is to make sense I'd actually be insulting myself.

                                                  I got the Wooden question a week or so but I got it right. I thought it was a fair 50 point question. Maybe growing up close to UCLA and following college basketball made it easier for me.

                                                                I remember Lou mentioned the possibility of adding a 50/50 option when the sbr trivia first started. If they are gonna continue these ridiculous questions the least they could do is give us some lifelines. Sbr trivia was cool at first. The first question payed 50 points, second payed 100 points and the third payed 250 points and the questions where reasonable. Now they lowered the payouts and the questions are mostly laughable.

And I honestly have no complaints about any aspect of SBR, except for maybe them not checking IDs at the door, so I can at least whine about my hard ass question, right?? Although that smarty pants Arsenal apparently had no problem with it.
