What 90's pro from TV am I thinking of?

[skogstokig]

This doesn’t seem likely to be your man but I think it was mid 90’s when Danny Harriman had a huge jump and exaggerated follow through on his 9-ball break. It may have been a US Open vs Mizerak that I am remembering. He was great to watch and a perfect gentleman. Played very well.

Jeff Bustamante Tourangeau Lawrence San Souci Howard?

ROTFL

 

[Black-Balled]

Andrew Dice Clay.

 

[jay helfert]

Surprisingly, it is no one mentioned. This guy was really skinny and short and had thin, dark hair, balding on the top. Jumped about 5 feet in the air.

Santos Sambajon Jr.

 

[pwd72s]

Maybe Dan Louie? Early on in his career, he'd get airbourn when breaking.

Yaaaah. I know who you’re talking about now.

Yep, just about jumped out of his shoes.

It was a short, thin white guy, probably 5'6"-5'8" that had a big break and jumped up when he broke. I wanna say his first name was Jeff and his last name was pretty long but not sure on that.

I can't think of anybody that meets all of those descriptors, but the closest matches would seem to be Johnny Archer or Mike Sigel, especially if you are certain they were really skinny.

If you could be misremembering the skinny part then it starts to sound a lot like Tony Ellin but it still wouldn't be a perfect fit.

I'm surprised no one remembers this guy. I know I saw him on ESPN more than a couole times. I know if I saw the name, I would instantly recognize it. Also the guy above me has it right when he says the guy just about jumped out of his shoes.

Let's try Tommy Kennedy for $200!

Still talking about Joe L. here, I was at a tourney chock full of champions, Bar Box that is, late 80's. Joe is playing local Champ, jumping to between the side pockets on his break all the while screaming uggggggh at the top of his lungs in time with his stroke. Both are taking copious amounts of the kind of vitamins that you don't find at GNC.
Joe has a cigarette going, lays it on the rail, shoots til he misses sits down. Local guy gets his turn, shoots til he misses, sits down. Joe gets back up lights cigarette, lays on rail, etc. Local guy, etc. Joe comes back to the table, picks up his cigarette up has position where the other cig is on the rail, asks local guy to move his cig. Local guy say's I don't smoke, both amped to the max. Pretty funny if you were there.

Joe made it to the finals of our tournament. I think he was playing Tommy K but I'm not positive. At least once every other game Joe had to use the restroom. And when he came out he sure was excited. But Damn he could pocket balls.
