He will beat most all of them on 4 inch pockets. This I know. I've seen him give great players big spots on tight tables. Example, He gave Sparky like the 6 and last 4 (maybe 3) and robbed him on a 4 inch pocket table. That is amazing.

Hey Jay...I'm a country boy and a hand shake still goes a long ways around here.:grin: I think that Lenny had nearly the same intentions as you and was just wanting to help make a game....You had the game and lost it...that happens all the time as we all know. But I think that a lot of what you were saying was directed more at Scott because he threw out a challenge and then set stipulations when called on it.
I didn't fault Lenny for what he did unless he had a vested interest in it and then had a change of heart himself...that would have been wrong...and do not think that was the case...but I think you were still harsh with Lenny and the reason for that I am not sure...
I'm no more upset that this match didn't happen as the Scott/Efren match....could care less really...I don't get excited until the coin flips or the lag is on. Don't get me wrong here Lenny can stick up for himself but I thought you might have had an epiphany or something after this match fell through.....later Jay and better luck next time.......:grin:

I had the pleasure of hanging out with Jose Parica alot at this past years Derby City. We talked about alot of things. I was asking him if he thought Shane could beat the top Philipinos day in and day out and this is what he said. He said Shane doesnt have all the weapons to beat Alex, Dennis and Bustamante. He said Shane has two weapons, big break and shiotmaking. He said the Philipinos have big break, shotmaking, postion play, kicking, safeties all the weapons. He said him and Efren are too old now..... and just in case you think he is being biased toward Philipinos when I asked him for his money who is the best 9 or 10 ball player in the world right now he turned around an pointed right at Johnny Archer. He said that Archer has proven it for 15 to 20 years. Jose said since himself, Efren and Bustamante they have won 1 maybe two player of the year awards and he laughed and said Johnny has won like 15!
Shane shouldn't be talking like that.If he really said those words to Efren,he can also call himself a coward for not playing Lee Van Corteza at DCC.Corteza was there ready to play shane anytime.He would even stay there for the whole week just to play shane but shane won't give him any action.
Just wondering,what does Shane trying to prove and he is chasing Efren for an action?Why not Alex Pagulayan?Lee Van Corteza?or probably Yang if they get a chance to meet.I respect Shane as he is one of the best pool player in the new generation but throwing those words to a legend like Efren is just a shame!
Take your time
He normally doesnt get as much credit as he should. Shane is a very good player and will get better..hopefully he travels down to GA to show us who is the best American Player.

Leader in the Clubhouse for most worthless post in the most worthless thread I've ever read through.
Although now my post would be a close second
if i win does your biker chick ride the cash over?
I do not expect Jay to realize getting pissed at me was wrong at all, its just not his nature to be wrong I am sure, I even can be stubborn and not see where others are coming from. I simply posted the challenge up for Scott on his behalf, I have no vested interest in it as I was not backing Scott. I did want it to happen at Kolbys so I could stream it and record it but whether it happened there or someplace else was up to the players and backers.
I spoke with one of Efren's backers and he said it was okay for me to post this, he said they would be fine with Efren playing Scott at Kolbys. When I said Jay was not a backer, well he might have been with Alex but not with this group who spoke to Scott or me as I asked. I do hope that the game happens sometime when its good for them both and those involved.
I was not going to reply but just like Scott changing his mind about his challenge which is beyond my control, Efren changing his mind is beyond Jays control, $hit happens. It is funny though how similar the situation is and most people who know me know that when I say something I follow through on it, I cannot make others do what they say though. Jay might have been a little rough on me but I can handle it, I am from NY and have dealt with much worse in my 30 years then most people have who are 60 years old.
Tap, tap, tap. I remember the days when a mans word ment everything.
Why should Shane go to Georgia? They will both be at Derby, do you want to stake Johnny? I will stake Shane against him in 10 ball, if he is the best American player this should be a good match.
If you actually read the thread you would of seen that Shane never said anything of the sort to Efren. Shane sent an email to his girlfriend and said that nine ball was for pu$$ies, what does this have to do with Efren?. Your bringing up the topic again stirs the pot and people like yourself who don't read the whole story start spreading untrue rumors.
Shane has given a lot of action to Alex, Lee Van, Efren, Busta, etc... He has won and lost plenty of sets with them. Do you know anyone else who has gambled more with the great players from the Philippine's? I didn't think so.
Do you really think I would let her out of my sight? Especially to see you!!!
No doubt John, you're doing a hell of a job keeping an eye on your grand-daughter like that. Good man.
I heard from a few people that Johnny doesn't want to play Shane on a Diamond and Shane doesn't want to play Johnny on a Gold Crown. Anybody heard anything similar?
I had heard that also, but when talking with Johnny at the Derby he had said he would only play Shane at his room on a 4" G.C.
If anyone wants to go to Georgia and play Johnny on that table I am betting on Johnny!
