Would you care to explain your remarks regarding the BCA?

Whatever, need to be working on something else
When I decide to write a book about pool-related arguments I'll go over the BCA in it.
For the moment just put me down as considering them just a footnote in the Mosconi story.
BTW, that website has a comment form and from what I'm reading, I'm not alone.
People are tired of not feeling they can post here because of the Abusive people that keep posting "rubbish"
If all you can do is pick fights or "run your game" then you need to STFU

Thanks, that helps clear up the people a little more. Which means none of them are impartial witnesses or judges.
Unfortunately, no video and the document not being notarized remains a problem.
And I guess there is something to say about doing it on a home table with big pockets now.

You attack a part of America, you attack me.

Go get a membership.
Regardless... that's the definitive proof that he did it. They are the final say in the run being valid unless evidence appears that he didn't do it.
Nobody cares if you respect them or not, because you are a nobody.

Attack America? That's rich. So it is your patriotic duty to protect Mosconi's legacy?
You're the biggest shill I've seen in long time. Are you being paid by the Mosconi estate or something? Or are you his illegitimate child?
So this 'Merica hatin' drug user had the nerve to shatter the record of your "hero" and you feel the need to claw and scream and grasp at straws in an effort to be a true patriot. What you really need is a shrink. This clearly has hit upon some repressed $##t you need to work through.
As someone who actually took an oath to defend this nation, I find your line of thinking offensive in its triviality. This great nation and the great Americans who live here are facing a million other problems that are more important than some pool bum breaking some other pool bum's record, no offense john.

It is okay if you hate yourself. Living in Detroit will do that to you. We understand.
You didn't get a membership. Don't you have 3 bucks?
keep writing Troll and spend your whole day doing it.
How does working at a grocery store matter with regards to impartiality?

When Mosconi ran 526, it was after the game was over and he merely kept the run going. The attendees were mostly just pool fans that wanted to see Mosconi play. It turned out to be a piece of history that they viewed. The people on hand signed an affidavit that Mosconi ran 526 balls.
John Schmidt has been trying to beat this record for a long time. He did this on his home table for a long time. The only witness being his video recorder and probably his wife. I think he started getting criticized about how it would look beating the record on a table he played on every day and with no witnesses. So, this last year he decided to make his game more public and go to pool halls where many people could be witnesses. Plus, he had a camera running for each attempt. It took many tries and it wasn't at the first pool hall he attempted it. John was invited to Easy Street Billiards in Monterey CA this past May. Once again he had a camera set up and witnesses were anybody who was present at the time, similar to how Mosconi set the 526 record. This is a very public place, not a closed club which requires a membership to get in. It was also on a table with standard cut pockets, not pro cut like some of the newer tables. This record will probably stand for quite a long time. The game of 14.1 is not the game of choice these days and there are very few, if any, major tournaments in the USA any longer.
My only regret is that my vacation plans put me in Monterey 2 days after John broke the record. If I were two days earlier, you would see my name on that affidavit. But that wouldn't mean anything, I'm just a nobody. As it stands, I got to talk to John and his wife for a little while and that's good enough for me. There were enough witnesses on hand to make this a legit record. Plus, it's on video. What more can we ask for?
Of course there are always those that don't believe we landed on the moon in 1969 either. Some think the world is flat. The doubting Thomas' of the world will always be out there. If they don't see it for themselves, it just didn't happen.
Little food for thought. Is Mosconi's 526 on video? They had video then....just sayin. How can we say for sure it happened? It happened because we have people's signatures on an affidavit that says so. Right? Ok, this last part I'm just messin with ya....but makes ya think.
I'll read the above later. But I just wanted to say I heard a couple of guys got booted from the APA for playing so great all of a sudden.. HAHA, it's in your leagues now. Good luck with that!
It doesn't pay enough to buy a membership. Sad really.

I notice you didn't refute a word that I wrote. "Get a membership" is only deflection. The only troll here is you. You have no actual argument so you think your "gold membership" gives you some kind of clout?
P.s. I have a membership or else I couldn't be posting this.

I can't believe you put forth that effort for balls, the troll tool.
Is that true? He asked others to wait a year?
If that were true and the lack of a video to the public, I think others should definitely attack it now and release a video to the public immediately. No one should have to honor that request.
All are free to pursue the 627!
