He can still go SBR Pro as normal. All that changes for a US guy is that next week the sportsbook sponsor method isn't available. However, you'll see more fantasy, handicapper, Amazon + more ways to go Pro.

That is what I was asking about Lou was if you were going to have more options to become a pro here and it looks like you are going to have more. I was hoping for that because for now the sports book option has been taken off the table. That sure puts a short list though of things for us so I was really hoping for more options. It sure appears that there is going to be some more things added also here. Sounds pretty good to me.

Things will be fine

Lets get the software fixed 1st

Lou send me 1000 points

Yet, I still see the January & February renewals complaining. What gives?

Simple explanation here, pal. All dumbfukks.

BigDaddy · 03-01-12, 02:38 PM

thanks for the extra year

anyone complaining about that is nuts.

why is this thread not stickied though?

i just now noticed it

seems to be an important subject for the next few days for people that would want to go pro for the 1st time

ChalkyDog · 03-01-12, 02:47 PM

This government fukking sucks. Dems/Repubs/Independents - all part of the fukkin problem. Legislating morality - GTFO!

Thanks, SBR - for being better than the country I currently live in.

Looks like that might be an altered quote. Can't find the original anywhere. That is the best solution but I didn't actually see a post where John said that.

EmpireMaker · 03-01-12, 03:27 PM

Lou, do those who renewed in Jan and Feb 2012 get a one year extension also ???

Mr. Teaser · 03-01-12, 03:32 PM

Also checking on the Jan/Feb situation. Is the quote above correct?

John, Lou............please take a look at post #145 & #149 and shed some light? Thanks!

Either way this goes...............really enjoy the site gentlemen.

d2bets · 03-01-12, 03:46 PM

Seems like it would be easier and less complicated to extend everyone to the same date, like 12/31/13, or something like that.

EmpireMaker · 03-01-12, 03:50 PM

Tacking on 1 year across the board is an easy fair solution.

According to Bill Dozer.......the quote from John was a fake. So, my best guess is your membership expires in 51 weeks.

Bcats........my Pro application was approved 10 days ago.

Bcatswin · 03-01-12, 04:41 PM

Damn that sux. Thanks Willy

One could only hope Empire, it would be a nice way for SBR to give back to the US with everything happening.

tblues2005 · 03-01-12, 05:13 PM

I am sure that they will get all this cleared up soon and hopefully they will let us know.

It's kinda like the cutoff for little league sign up ...ya the kid who was born right before the cuttoff gets screwed and has to play with kids almost a full year older. But on the other hand, you aren't up against the other posters. No reason to be upset because someone else got something cool right?

and maybe when it is bonus time at SBR Lou, Shari and Blondie can have one but you can be skipped

Smoke · 03-01-12, 06:58 PM

What next

Or, give NOBODY an extension. If we cant get an extension, no one else should. Fukk em too.

cruzing vato · 03-01-12, 07:36 PM

First No Cruzing Laws, Then this... Can we still go outside in the U. S. ??

Bcatswin · 03-01-12, 08:02 PM

So i just renewed and i get fuked not getting the extra year? I should have just stayed where i was instead of renewing? If so thats a bunch of Bullshit and Kick rocks. Obviously ousting the US posters also. Lou, Shari, John please explain!

Straight Cash · 03-01-12, 08:33 PM

Havent read the entire thread, but is there a way we can check when our Pro membership expires?

kfranz31 · 03-01-12, 08:34 PM

i didnt go thjrough the whole thread...but is there a current list for options to turn pro

mr. leisure · 03-01-12, 08:43 PM

You expire September 20th, 2013. You're all set.

For folks wondering their expiration dates, simply go to the SBR Pro application page - it will tell you your renewal date. That renewal date is exactly one month prior to when your membership expires.
