Well I can tell you this. If I were to be in command of a multimillion dollar venture I would sure as hell know what the time frame is for inspectors. If I didn't know I don't deserve the job and if I did know and kept it hidden then I should be fired. FU??? wow, did I hit a nerve?

JAM - it's unfair to say Lee instigated anything. From what I heard from my friend who was there--- Darren launched at Lee. That said, I'm a huge fan of both guys and hope the water is well beneath the bridge.

When alcohol is involved, things happen. That said -- that situation at the Open doesn't mean Lee should be keeping a low anything nor was he instigating. It doesn't mean I agree w/ his paw comment at all -- that chirp didn't need to get chirped. Just saying the other stuff wasn't a fair comment by you ;)

Lee just proved he's the man to beat in PPP, that's all - "IMO" of course.

You know, I just re-read your post. Please re-read mine. I said "instigating" meaning posting on this forum. The word "instigating" had nothing to do with Lee at the Open. I think you may have missed my point, but that's okay. Because of me, Bonus Ball won't be giving the players a million-dollar payday.

Who is Fu? Is that a Bonus Ball player?
 
I found Fu on Google: #2 pool player in the world Fu Xiao Fang. Who'd have thunk it?

Is she a member of Bonus Ball?

I read a number of posts and alot of them were negative toward the two of them is all I am saying and therefore a little tarnished. Thats a fact and I don't need to know them or be there to make a decision on what the majority are saying in a forum. Another fact. I like the way you name drop though, and happy that you know 2 pro players. I think thats awesome. You are pretty cool after all.

What is the number you speak of? How many posters need to pile on before you consider it "tarnished"?

What is "alot" - more vagueness

"A number of posters piled on with alot so now they are tarnished and THAT is a fact". LMAO

"another fact is you know 2 Pro's and like to name drop" THAT is some funny chit.

Clueless troll.

You don't need the games current fans, hell alienate every single current billiards fan and it wouldn't mean jack.

You could have EVERY current fan in the bag and nothing you do would be viable.

You HAVE to get mass interest in order for anything billiard related to become viable as a self sustaining revenue generator.

What has been done obviously isn't working. The most successful thing out there (mosconi cup) has several things that other attempts don't.

Team rivalry, something for the masses to get behind...."USA, USA, USA..." "Europe, Europe, Europe"...


A team based format so that you can choose which individuals to route for, different strokes for different folks, etc...
Guess what???? All of these things that differentiate the most successful current billiards endeavor are not only IN BB, they are magnified and are likely to be specifically promoted.

As to the comment that all proponents of BB are in their pockets.... I'm not...

I happen to just like the game and while it is direct competition for something I have had in the works for several years, I don't see it as a negative if it manages to take off...

No, this is wrong on several levels. Here's two: first off they need the hard core fan base, which would be us, and by extension, our fellow pool players whom we interact with at the pool hall and leagues, but who may not participate in online discussions. Think of us, if you will, as potential ambassadors of all things pool. At the minimum, because we are online, we are also the prime and logical potential PPV audience.

Second, anyone who had thought this halfway through would know that in the event sponsors, TV, or other parties take more than a passing interest in this endeavor they're going to do their due diligence and see what the hard core fan base thinks of the whole idea. And where do you think they're going to look to take the temperature? That's right -- they're going to look right here. And that's why it would have been a good idea to have developed and carefully executed a PR plan to win us all over right from the git-go. That's just being smart.

But somewhat obviously, that's not what's happening.

Given your position after the fight at the Open. Your reputation has been tarnished and so has Appleton's. The difference is, he is a World Champion and you are not. He was picked to play on a team with Bonus Ball and you were not. He can get away with more than you can. OH not a Sir I'm a Ms thank you.

Tarnished? hell i think its great they both stood up for them selfs, whats wrong with that? sort it out and have a pint together afterwards, no problem
 
Well, one thing is for sure. Bonus Ball doesn't give a damn what we pool fans think. Well, I don't give a damn what Bonus Ball thinks now, so there you have it. :mad::mad: :mad:

How many were negative and how many viewed the thread and came the their conclusions? Just because not everyone posts does not mean that they didn't see it and decide how they felt. One way or another.

Did he know that you knew what you were talking about? If he did know and ignored you then I am afraid that his own fault. I know we are having words right now but I also have respect for you that you know what the deal is in Vegas and he should have listened to you or hired you as some kind of consultant.

Lou,

with all due respect I dont think there are enough pool players or hardcore fans left in pool to make a difference, cant even get 1000 viewers on a free stream, thats only 20 people per state. How sad is that? Pool is just to small to matter, it has to reach out to people who dont know what a cue is to work. I think thats too tall of a order.

I was just wondering what your number was before you followed the pack? or at least your recollection of a pack.

2? 5? wait...you said "the majority were saying" how many post before YOU were convinced by the forum?
