Cole was my toughest challenge as a young player! Played him with the call eight for ten a game. I was 16 and he was 18. I had about 600$ in my pocket and he got me 200 loser. I racked balls for a better part of two hours and knew I was in trouble but I was gonna keep playing until I got a...

ME!

Hope all you Kool people here on AZ have a good thanksgiving from The Mighty Squirrel!

I was born May 22, 1952! It was late summer 1970 when I made that shot at Vern Peterson’s billiard palace in Bellflower! Blew Coles mind lol. Then he lined up trick shots trying to match what I did lol. Cole was 19-20 months older than me! I played Cole at 16 years old in Houston with the call...

Cole was a great nine ball player because he was a straight shooter and had great control of his cue ball ! If any of you people want to up your game of 9 ball or one pocket game practice 14-1 everyday! If you can pocket balls pretty decent the 14-1 will improve your 9 ball and one pocket game...

Tommy Fleetwood finally broke ice and won a tourney! Won the Fed Ex tour championship after playing in his 164th pga tourney! And he picked the right one to win, 10 mil first prize! Congrats to Tommy, you’ve done well!

Tall Jeff Sparks is 6 ft 7 inches and was at his peak in the early 70’s. He beat Buddy Hall twice playing even nine ball in Houston in late 70 or early 71! He also beat one eyed Tony twice playing even nine ball. Beat Greg Steven’s with the last two in nine ball and he could give Greg the last...

The Stardust tourney was played in April of 1972! This was my last appearance in the pool world pretty much. I claimed Keith Mcready played Ronnie Allen with the eight losing two sets at 500$ per set. He played pretty good but was in over his head! He needed the seven and I would have still...

I watched Ronnie Allen give Keith Mcready the eight in 1972 at the Stardust tourney when Keith was 17 or just before he turned 17. Ronnie beat him two sets at 500$ a set. Keith needed the 7! He was in a little over his head at the time. He was a pretty good player for his age but wasn’t elite by...

I spoke with Alfie’s youngest brother Doug Taylor and he confirmed he was in an assisted living place in Tucson Arizona. Doug gave me the number but chances are you won’t get Alfie! Told me he was hard to understand over the phone so I haven’t called!

I disagree 100%, if you read those post (lies) he said about me he trashed me big time along with Rodney Steven’s ! I have no respect for him whatsoever! If you do a search on the internet “how good was Keith Thompson “ those post will come up he made and Rodney Steven’s threw gas on the fire...

I spoke to a good friend of mine today Jam ! Joey Nelson and he knew you sometime or another back in the day! Did you know Joey?

Appreciate the coolness lol but my buddy Cole Dickson was the coolest guy I’ve ever known, I worshipped him. Couldn’t wipe the kool off Cole he just naturally had it! I felt so loose hanging with him!

Yes, Marshall Carpenter! Myself and Bobby Taylor my road buddy stopped by the pool room Squirrel played at and I was gonna shoot 500$ at him at 50$ a game about 3 weeks after I won the all around at Johnston City. He wasn’t there that day so we just kept on going!
