What are you jabbering about? This thread is about knocking John Schmidt's world record of 626. The logic of saying that a person isn't on another person's level because they haven't taken an offer is quite dumb. I mean, by that logic, the FACT that I told you we can play for 30k in OKC years ago which you declined means that you are not on my level. And Lou, you finished 3 games ahead of me after 9 hours of play in a situation where you had NOTHING to do but show up and play. I had a pretty intense job that I was doing up to the day before the match. I'd say that thinking that you are so much better than me based on that match is magical thinking. The game difference between us out of 18 games played is four games. Any rational person knows that this isn't enough to reach a conclusion that one player is dominant over another one.
Stay on topic buddy. Where we stand in relation to each other is really immaterial. You are not fit to carry John's cue case and neither am I. Just two railbirds chirping about things we can never achieve. In fact I am so confident in your average skill level that I would have bet $5000 that you couldn't run 200 in a week on the same table that John used. So you are no more qualified to talk about pool than I am and you are completely unqualified to talk about the billiard industry with any authority.
Let's just stay focused here on John Schmidt's amazing feat of running 626 balls in succession. Here is part Freddie Agnir's account of the evening with John and his thoughts on the veracity of the run. This is what you like to knock and so either you are saying that Freddie is a liar or has been duped. Which is it? I won't ever stop posting this as long as this thread continues because it is relevant to the topic. Danny is making accusations of fraud and you and Bobby Chamberlain have both disparaged John throughout this thread and soft-pedaled backing Danny's accusations of fraud (a crime). So for me this is just another attack on the those who do by those who can't get there.
""It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Teddy Roosevelt
