How did you discover this site. I e-mailed Fezzik(3 years ago) and asked him where i could learn more about gambling and he reccommended this site and I am thankful for that, it has made my learning curve on being a smarter player, alot smaller.

Through the grapevine hanging with a few wiseguys in a Vegas sportsbook.

The previous owner of this site used to post football picks on an old AOL message board years ago (had to be '95 or '96) and he was excellent. AOL shut the boards down one year, so I emailed Ken and he told me that he started up a website. Been here almost since the beginning, mostly as a lurker.

My first sportsbook a few years ago was mvpbets. Eventually came across that the Prescription had them as an advertiser and that was what drew me in. I read the message boards for a while at first and then eventually got into posting.

got junk mail from pro5sports. i called them because they had a special "no juice" on all bets for the 2002 ncaa basketball tourney. the guy sounded like a used car salesmen but he said "check us out on the prescription...they approve us". so, i checked out this site and got hooked.

I found this place at another gambling forum. I found that particular forum when I was trying to dig up dirt on a tout. A tout said here is my plays and if this site is ever down you can go to the 'theprescription.com' which is ironic because back in the day the RX was down a lot.

I have been posting on forums since 1994. the first place I ever posted at was sportsline.com. However, you couldnt use their forum at the time unless you were a paid premium member. You could never view more than 20 posts at a time. It simply deleted the other ones to make room for new ones.
 

There's always next year, like in 75, 90-93, 99 &

When I was with ESB(ENGLISH SPORTSBETTING) they were going through a major legal battle with THESHRINK. The Shrink accused ESB of being a no-pay book. ESB tryed to sue THESHRINK for misleading the public. I read all of this in the monthly newspaper ESB use to send out. I came to this site out just to see what ESB was talking about.

Well come to find out SHRINK was right.

Thats how I found out out THERX.
