I think you are both great guys............
Nowhere did I claim or imply Gene's stuff isn't new. I was just pointing out to someone that this kind of stuff (how one should sight) has been discussed and illustrated quite a bit (mostly by Mike Page).
Agreed. It doesn't matter if Gene's "stuff" is "new" or not. People seem to relate to him and how he presents the stuff ... that's all that really matters.
I'm also sure we'll hit it off when we eventually meet, especially if some heavy drinking is involved. (Although, I'm not so sure about Cookie ... I can't imagine that guy ever getting along with me.)
BTW, I grew up and went to college in New Orleans, so I have a little experience in the inebriation arena. If you're not careful, I might give you a PhD (puked his drink).
Ditto!
I did think it was cute. I just didn't know what you were trying to imply with it.
Catch you later,
Dave
Hi there guys,
Well lets see here. We have a scientist and we have Spidey the pool warrior that lives pool with a passion.
What do you get when you cross a scientist with a passionate pool warrior that eats and sleeps pool like myself.?
Sometimes. Misunderstanding especially when it is just words on paper.
If all 3 of us lived in the same town I know we would be the best of friends or at least be alot of the same places together and know each other very well. .
Dr Dave being a scientist comes across a little rigid about some things. But he just tries to give the facts. Sometimes these facts that you give might look like insults or worse even though you mean nothing like that at all. If I lived in your town we would be in the basement all the time trying to figure out a million things with this game of pool.
On the other hand then there is Spidey. He loves the game of pool for what it is. One of the most fabulous games that has ever come about. When he learns something new he is estatic. With the excitement and enthusiasm of a youngster. Every night of pool is an adventure. He lives it and loves it.
I feel like I'm talking about myself.
If I didn't know you Dr Dave I would have felt insulted sometimes by things you posted but I know that is not the way you meant it to be. You are a scientist and you present the facts that you know and that make sense to you. Sometimes it may appear that you are stepping on someone elses toes to other people. I know that , that is not the case.
Spidey is the guy I want at every tournament. Loves the game and is just really into it. I know he lives the play by plays of pool matches in his mind just like I do. He's very much on the people side of pool. And from what I know is loved by all the players around him.
We need both of you on this sight because there are so many things that you both bring to the table.
Remember sticks and stones.............
We are all so different but at the same time we have this common bond as so many players across the country do. We all love pool. It doesn't matter who you are or what you are the pool world accepts us all.
And sometimes in this pool world especially among some of the elite players that seem a little harsh. When we peel off the ego , what's left is a pretty nice person.
Have a great day guy.. Your Friend Geno...............
