I get a pair on the river

[C-Dog]

On the river I made a pair, so is the call ok at this point. Should I have just bet the turn, even though it didn't seem like anyone was going anywhere?

SB is 41/0/2.29 over 29 hands. (In general I would call him your typical loose passive PP player, that isnt going to bet unless they have the goods, or you have shown weakness.)

BB is new to the table, only 8 hands in my DB on him total.
