I could see years ago how someone that heard Donny barking in his homeroom might assume that since Donny isn't willing to leave FL that he is all woof and no gamble.
Now, however, when he is challenging US Open champions to play 10 ball races to 100, how are these notions still around?
Forget the rack your own 9 ball, Donny wasn't the one that brought that up. Forget the flying him to Beloit or TX, he has for YEARS made everyone aware that he isn't getting in a plane.
He is not trying to lure people to a trick table- I have a hunch that if JJ or CW wanted TAR to bring in a new table that he would be ok with that.
HE JUST WANTS A FAIR GAME.
The guy is playing world class pool and wants a chance to play for the title. Unfortunately, with a business and an aversion to flying, that is quite difficult. He just wants a chance to play a great player for some cash with the pool world watching, why is everyone acting like he is nut hunting??? DID YOU SEE WHO HE IS ASKING TO PLAY???
Tell you what, if Larry Nevel likes the game why doesn't he play a race to 100 for 10K, fly to FL, and winner buys the plane tickets???
Isn't there a single champion out there that will get in the ring so that the world can finally see what he's got?
I'll tell you one thing Donny, I haven't been a fan of yours in the past (didn't mean that I disliked you, just didn't know you much), but I'm in your corner now my man. Good luck now and into the future, you've got some heart!
