SBR will rise from the ashes in 2025

Even knowing our basic metabolic rate, our glory days are a thing of the past.

Never heard of BMR fellas

I have visited several horse forums and none come close to SBR. All they do is complain at those other sites. All we do is explain at this one.

Posters here are very solid across the board.

Great job SBR.

**Thefix13** · 01-16-25, 11:07 AM

Membership certainly on the rise with all the new accounts complaining about not getting paid, so there's that. Maybe put johnnyvegas on a street corner with a sign to bring in even more.

**trobin31** · 01-16-25, 01:21 PM

Have you considered going to a discord format as well?

This is a great post. On the sports message boards, you want to consider two items:

1) Is there any poster who can educate me on a certain topic?
2) Is there any poster whose opinion can help me structure my investments?

Those answers (for me) are a clear Yes and Yes.

Dude- you can’t even focus on one team winning anything or one thread with all your plays. Let alone- an ongoing podcast with content. Enough.

The momentum is in place. BMR knows it. SBR will return to past glory in 2025.

Let’s be real about what goes on at other sports betting forums… racist rants, sexual threads, weird shit, pity me bullshit, useless content, paid posters, garbage upon garbage piled high and mostly favoritism in moderation.

I don’t see much of any of that here. Sure it happens. SBR isn’t perfect but we have solid people here, solid posters, people actually betting, real money/value contests and we aren’t dangling “baller points” that are useless to keep people around.

The mod-work here is very good. I sometimes see the trolls in the morning, but that gets cleaned up very quickly.

IMO one of the best threads on other forums is the monthly payout thread. Having one here at SBR might help drive a little traffic to the site.

Ian, don't want to add work to your plate but send me a PM with details. Happy to take a look at it.

Too much nonsense on Discord. It's fun when games are live, but as a forum-like experience it's not exactly optimal.

Gaucho, how you feel about your Rams going east to Philly?

Telling you, 2025 is the Year of SBR. I dream of a Forum Olympics where we go toe-to-toe versus BMR. Imagine the demolition we'd administer.

I'm told BMR is pretty much the same four people talking to each other.

They have JJ, we have Johnny.
JV is funnier than Gold.

Philly has a few strengths that play well against the Rams weaknesses. Defending good pass catching TE's is a huge issue for the Rams and has been for a while. Their O Line is great. They have all of their receivers healthy. Saquon is a monster.

Rams O Line is healthy so that's a positive and that wasn't the case in the first game. Philly D is banged up so that plays well for the Rams offense. Rams will be on a short week going cross country - doesn't mean as much as it used to but still an issue. Rams DB's are relatively healthy and the D line looked great against a very highly ranked O line on Minnesota.

It will come down to basic football - can the Rams D contain the run and pressure Hurts so he makes mistakes? It's pretty clear that they only want him to manage the game and play power football. Can the Rams offense sustain drives to keep the ball away from Philly and score 6 instead of 3? Will Higbee go for the Rams?

I don't love the matchup but the Rams could win. Probably won't but they have the talent to do so.

I know the total got pounded down but this might end up being a battle of offenses.

Completely agree. JV, while irritating in terms of his old style hyping things, does provide actual gambling picks rather than nonessential redundant irrelevant ramblings about life from JJ. Just glad his disciples followed him. SBR has vastly improved.

Agree a bash would be very good for us. The bashes gave us a personal connection and developed some genuine loyalty between people here.

I have only been to one bash before, it was great. Loved putting faces to names, I am sure the casino loved it also. Getting all us degens there.

HA! You know the casino loved it. Highest revenue weekends: Super Bowl, F1, Degen BASH

Some guys just like to post winners. Don't necessarily need all the hoopla.

The bad thing about what you just posted is Hamburger. That's 100% a JJ saying. Idk know where anything is going, I was a lurker here for years and I never in my life followed anyone who sold out. I only post here, if I need to see what Brock Landers is doing I'll just call his wife Debbie up or talk to all the books or agents he's ripped off over the years.

Ya, that was the point.
