    Barry Behrman responds to ABP press release

    This is unfortunate This is really unfortunate. I believe Barry is really trying to advance the sport of billiards. It is really hard to make a living in this business. On the other hand, ABP is a union trying to protect its members. The players have been burned before, perhaps NOT by...
