Senator's Laundry List Of Ideas

[Senator7]

These are just my 2 cents, but there are a lot of them!

1. I would like to see CRIS openers in SBR Odds. That's "where the line originates" and many people have said that CRIS is the book that most other books look to.

2. I would like to see a seperate Contests forum as well as an Off Topic forum. Too much stuff being posted in the Main Forum because there's no place else for it. Maybe even a News Forum for posting daily sports news. That'd be cool.

3. It would be cool to have the customizable options that SportsCrew's live lines have. I know their lines can't hold a candle to SBR's, but their customization options can and do.

4. I would like to see more books available on SBR Odds. What about Skybook, Cascade, Mansion, Grande, Las Palmas, or Carib?

5. What about having betting articles to help newbies get acquainted to the world of sportsbetting. There are a lot of members on this forum that are losing money because of simple mistakes or touts. Sportsbetting isn't easy for guys who understand it and have been doing it for years. Imagine what its like if you're just getting started?

These are just some of the ideas I've thought about. JJ was annoying at times, but he was right when he said that we have to take this forum to another level. These are some of my ideas to do just that. Anyone else please feel free to add to my list or make comments.

Maybe instead of a seperate News Forum, you could get a sports newsticker. I've seen a couple sites that have them. Even ESPN Bottomline programmed for football, basketball, baseball, and hockey would do the trick. A live newsfeed of some kind would be awesome.

6. This is probably being worked on, but are there more contests planned for the NHL or NCAA basketball? I would think that a couple of SBR's top 12 books would be willing to do something. You don't need a ton of contests, but 4 or 5 for the year isn't bad.

7. What about a monthly e-newsletter containing industry and SBR news? You could include upgrades/downgrades, major complaints, along with other industry and SBR related news.

More to come...

1. Only half true, Pinny is faster with some lines, f.e. 1st period/half times, NCAA moneylines...

2. 100% agree

3. dont care

4. would be nice, but its alrdy great for being a free service.
Also the crew alrdy seems to have some problems with the lines, i cant use them lately - half of the lines are wrong.

5. when looking through the SBR page, i found a lot of helpful articles from Mr. Dozer for newbies.

7. For what? theres alrdy a large and daily updated news section on the main page.

Well i agreed with 2., and you dont come up with bad stuff...
just that i dont see the need for most of that atm, dont forget how much work a site like SBR alrdy.
If you work on too many things, that might not be healthy in the long run.
