Jeanette Lee is more famous than Efren. Minnesota Fats was more famous than Willie Mosconi.
ESPN FILMS ANNOUNCES 30 FOR 30 DOCUMENTARY ON “THE BLACK WIDOW” POOL LEGEND JEANETTE LEE!
- Thread starter Dead Money
- Start date
Yep. I agree.
10 people who don't play pool in the US couldn't pick Efren out of a police lineup. I have a close friend who was born and raised in the Philippines until age four when she moved here and had no clue who he was until I sent her a link to a story.
Not going to get any argument from me on that.
Until they put SVB on Mt. Rushmore , many in South Dakota don't know who he is. There have been numerous TV and newspaper stories.
ESPN is a sports channel so there will be some knowledgeable viewers. Hopefully it will pique some interest in new cueists.
Yes.. "Soap Operas" are called that for this reason....the soap companies were early backers of those shows. As an aside...
THIS is a funny movie:
The swimming pool scene is hysterical!
I'm happy to see all the mostly positive comments(95%?) about this coming show.
JL is known everywhere and was and still is a pretty big star...in pool for sure..and outside of pool too.

I'm glad to hear it. I think her story is quite compelling and ESPN does a good job with the 30 for 30 so her story will get the respect it deserves, and so will she. As well as being good for her, it's good for the sport to get good representation on a high profile channel.
