    its free, easy and you get extra stuff.

    if your logic is you dont want to give sbr your account number then i hope youre not joining any contests- as that would be contradictory.

    Sure there is Bud. Maybe there are others like me that just don`t give a shit about points. I give mine away.
    I am making wagers that are no where near fifty cents a day, or whatever the freak they are worth and can`t be bothered.
    It is not about information collected, as I wrote, I just don`t give a shit.

    I'm always amazed when people have nothing else better to do then bring something up of ZERO value, or the constant bitching or worrying about what other people are doing. If you don't like SBR or its products leave...plain and simple....no one is holding a gun to your head. I for one enjoy the banter and solid soccer insight I get. As for points, say what you want, but it gives folks an outlet to either piss them away in the Casino, or possibly get a free play where they stay in the game longer.

    How come being SBR Pro is pointless when the point is to earn more points?

    I used to think guys bitched about this place because they were kind of like those people who whine when they wobble their pasty asses to the beach, don't wear sunscreen and then get burnt. There's a simple remedy to the solution that even a nitwit would understand ie don't come here/slap some sunscreen on. Ironically, these are the same people who tend to be the most vocal about calling others idiots for betting the losing side of a game.

    Now I'm starting to believe that there are certain posters who will never offer anything to the forum other than to troll and seek attention any way possible. Maybe they don't even gamble and just found SBR by Googling "I almost fukked my aunt" when they were looking for kindred spirits to help them sort out their feelings. Not sure. But I get the sense they think so little of themselves that they feel this is their only way to 'contribute' and feel a part of the community on here.

    All I know is that it couldn't possibly be because they think threads like this are imparting groundbreaking news that anyone actually cares about. A simple search on here would let them know that unfortunately they've dropped the ball on this one as the same opinions have been shared many, many, many times before and usually by someone much more eloquent.

    I love points. I just happen to be funded at 3 books not on the PRO list....However, it's time to add a fourth and turn PRO.

    Yeah, not sure why anyone would turn down more points, if part of the reason for being here is to earn them.

    this and this..... if you happen to have 200+ in a sponsored book sign up and get more points, if not just shut up and stop complaining about "pro status" i dont understand what the big deal is....

    even if you are betting $1000/game why would you turn down an extra $200/year in points (+ the poker tournaments and other extras) for doing something you're already doing?

    i think if you had the choice of going across the street for a $203 whopper or going a few miles down the road for a $3 whopper you would drive a few miles to save $200, whether you had plenty of money or not

    I don't care about points either, I've given away plenty. Gave away over 300 the other night. I only worry about my money bets, but might as well take advantage of a few more points and some free poker tournaments even though I rarely play in them.

    Conservative estimate on my part has the pro program worth close $1000 a year in free plays, if you post everyday and make the most of your points.

    Correct. However that assumes enough self-control to accumulate the points necessary to cash in. Need I comment further?

    SBR Pro is one of the greatest things this website provides, but doesn't come close to free handicapping by great cappers.
