At rackmsuckr's request, here is the transcript of the Billiard's Digest interview with Efren regarding the upcoming grudge match between myself and breakup.

Efren was recently interviewed by Billiard’s Digest for his take on the “Thrilla in the ‘Ville”, the most anticipated pool match-up since Mosconi and Fats laced them up for their televised grudge match.

BD: Thanks Efren for taking the time to speak with us, and congratulations on your recent victory over our Creator.

Efren: You are welcome. The Almighty plays great, I got lucky.

BD: I think the whole pool world is looking forward to the upcoming grudge match between the well-known and universally liked Williebetmore and some loser troll guy from the internet named breakup. Have you known Willie a long time?

Efren: I had heard of him through some of my anonymous top pool player friends, but it wasn’t until this year that I was lucky enough to get to play with him.

BD: Did you enjoy having Willie as your celebrity partner in the Scotch Doubles Celebrity Tournament at DCC?

Efren: Yes, you can’t beat having Jeanette Lee and Williebetmore as the celebrities; I’m glad I got first choice; I’m very lucky. My friends though are starting to kid me because I just can’t stop telling them the stories about our match.

BD: You two did very well, I don’t recall either one of you missing a single shot?

Efren: Yes, we ran out 3 straight games on a really tight table. That Willie is incredible; I got lucky on a few shots.

BD: I understand that after the partner’s match, you matched up against Willie and actually won.

Efren: Yes, I squeaked out a victory. It was the high point of my career. I played well, but I had been watching Willie play all night, and copying him brought my game to a whole new level. I think he was just letting up on me near the end when he actually missed a ball (his only miss the whole night). I got lucky.

BD: Have you heard of breakup?

Efren: Well the other night I was watching the tapes of our Scotch Doubles Celebrity Tournament (I just can’t get enough of these tapes), and one of my law enforcement friends pointed him out in the audience. It gives me the creeps just looking at him.

BD: Who are you picking in the big grudge match at the 2007 DCC?

Efren: All of my money is on Willie. I’ve mortgaged my house, borrowed from friends, sold my car. Would you like to buy my cue?

BD: Thanks for your time Efren.

Congratulations Willie I see you have been promoted to celebrity status :eek: ( ahhh is there a doctor in the house, …I mean another doctor that is).

Please let Efren know next time you talk to him (5 minutes from now), I’ll try to clean up nice for him so he can watch the match. I don’t want him getting the creeps and leaving, there may be a bunch of people he will need to pay when the match is over it would be easier if he just remained in attendance.

Also please congratulate Efren on his recent victory however it probably was just a case of Erfen-itis, I don’t like his chances in a long race (say a billion years).

breakup,
You have been playing too much football without your helmet. You have only 2 chances of winning - slim and none (and Slim just left town).

P.S. - Please say hi to Jodie Foster for me in your next letter.

Speaking of Jodie, she was pretty hot in "Inside Man"! I had no idea that her legs were that nice...lol.

Z,
Shhhhhhhhhhhh, don't let breakup hear you say that - he thinks they have an exclusive relationship. You're liable to come home one day and find breakup sitting in your hallway, mumbling to his invisible friends.

break-man,
By "cleaning up" do you mean removing your straitjacket and Hannibal Lecter "safety" mask??? Geez, I'm not sure I'm comfortable with that. We'll have to hammer out some of the details as the match gets closer. Hasta la vista, baby.
 
Okay, here it is, hot off the presses!!!! Harrah's Casino has released their line on the Betmore/breakup clash. Williebetmore is listed as a 240,000 to 1 favorite. The over/under on breakup is 2 balls (race to 150).

Now if I can just find a spare 720 grand, I can get my bet down and make a cool 3 bucks. IT'S JUST LIKE STEALING!!!
 
Thanks Willie!! I just talked to Guido. He has jumped ship and will be speaking to you in the near future. He has this very convincing speech about “pride” that he gives people when he tells them to take a dive. He heard about the odds and put the entire 5 bucks you paid him on me to win the match.

How do you put it “Hungarian Cinch”

breakup,
I was distressed to hear of Guido changing allegiance - it's freaking hard to find good help nowadays. Unfortunately for you, Guido has the intelligence of a cocker spaniel (though significantly less loyalty it seems) - I believe his initial instructions were to break your thumbs (and where is your cast????). You two definitely deserve each other; at least now you will have someone who can be "the brains of the outfit" - I'm pretty sure Guido only spent 2 years in third grade, so he should be somewhat ahead of you.

I have already changed my name and changed cities (hell, changing my phone number probably would have worked if Guido is the one looking for me), so here is the bad news for you - THERE WON'T BE ANY DIVE FROM ME!!!! Perhaps you should consider some practice (have someone explain the concept to you).

P.S. - and don't think threatening my family will work - I can already claim the kids as deductions for this year (I wouldn't miss those college bills), and the wife has enough insurance to possibly cover that nice Balabushka I've had my eye on.
