Don't forget they also schedualed the event to conflict with the DCC as well and caused alot of international players to skip the event all together and caused alot of people who "were" there to skip the 9-ball event.
A huge pile of awesome all the way around.
I wonder if the WPA realizes how NEGATIVE the publicity really is for them when they pull crap like this? I personally don't like what they did, knowing full well they were causing a conflict with the DCC and going right ahead anyhow. I simply become less and less interested in supporting anything they do when they decide to play these stupid and petty games that they should have grown out of after high school.
Heya WPA, your ignorant actions are counterproductive, you are not helping yourself with all the crap and when a viable alternative for international pool arises from a promotion with the proper support structure in place you are going to regret not having been a honorable and positive force in pool that worked with people for the betterment of the sport as a whole. In that case I and the thousands of others who actively support and discuss pool would have your back, instead you are simply ostrasizing yourself from the people you need to have on your side. Stupid move, seriously.
