Well, here is the thing. I am not a biased, unreasonable person like some (
and when I say some I mean 2 that is most likely 1 acting as 2 ) that doesn't see the potentially valid point you are bringing up.
Why would the "governing body" compromise their reputation by not making sure the run was valid? EVERYBODY knows there isn't a financial windfall if the run was totally legit. So no upside for the BCA, but the downside to certifying the run when it wasn't legit is HUGE.
Why would JS put this out if the run wasn't legit? Can you imagine what would happen to his life if this wasn't legit? He has spent countless hours playing pool and it would basically take all of it away.
He wants to put it out and hopefully monetize it to the maximum extent possible. He is being careful about this, and rightfully so because as you have seen on here some folks won't believe it no matter what and openly proclaim a "deep state" cover up.
At the end of the day, the "I don't believe folks" only have one leg to stand on,,, and that is they haven't seen the complete tape themselves.
There are many logical supportive reasons on the other side why the run of 626 is legit.
So: Many reasons (he did it) vs. one reason (he didn't do it).
I'll go with the many.
* Disclaimer: I think if we could put anyone alive today in a time machine to play Willie in his prime, it would be no contest. Willie destroys everyone alive today at 14.1. So I'm not comparing the 2 against each other. Willie was just more focused on winning championships rather than high runs.
