Just to disagree with some who have posted here. While Alex is definitely fun to watch; he is NOT in any way a gentleman; at least by commonly held criteria. He also is NOT in any way a true "professional." He is a great player, no doubt; but really disgraced himself. Maybe he'll change...

TR, Hey, no offense intended; just pointing out areas in which you can improve....always trying to help...

JG, You are correct. In my book, if you take 2 players of equal pool ability; the one that behaves like Ralf is the greater. There are too many "T-shirt wearing, butt-crack showing, dingy sneaker wearing, sweatpant wearing, chain smoking, chain cursing" players for my taste....DCC definitely...

She only won a match or two in the bank event; and decided not to play in the one pocket and 9-Ball events. Fairly even in gambling matches during the week.

I've just returned from DCC (Monday thru Friday as per usual), a very long and exhausting week, but GREAT as always. This year I took a very different approach to Derby - stay up all night, sleep all day. I had agreed to help out a professional friend; and the decision was made to focus on the...

I'm in. Fifty bucks an hour is a STEAL to have access to 2 of the best pool players ever. I hope AZB will be well represented.

bfd, elvicash and I are still working on it; several calls out, none returned yet. Hopefully we'll know within the next couple of days.

MG, And all along I thought that it was the restraining order we got from the judge to keep you from loitering near the Basement (checking the security precautions I think...). Here is the photo, entered into evidence at the restraining order hearing, that convinced the judge to keep you at...

JH, It wouldn't be a bad thing to be in his shoes (I believe he prefers Lady Nike's); they would allow you to run away like a little girl (his usual response to being offered a fair match...).

MG, I filtered through your post, and gathered the essential information. If you COULD think, you would realize that you have NO hope of ever resting the Betmore Cup from its current posessor (....that would be ME....). It is good, however, that you have an active fantasy life; at least...

SG, I guess that means that HE is the "high maintenance" member of the partnership. Why doesn't this surprise me? I suppose you are going to have to cut his steak into little pieces to save him some work.

JH, Dang, something sounds a little fishy; I'm starting to think that you might be making up excuses...hmmm...you should have chosen a story more realistic and believeable, like "I'm going to win the lottery and pay you back next year." THAT I would have bought.

MC, I'll leave the light on.

Dub, You are absolutely correct. There is a bit of value there.

Scott, Just one point of disagreement here (the rest I certainly agreed with). If you and even one of your friends are good players, you will NOT be playing on a team with them (unless you also know a lot of very feeble players). I tried and tried to field a team with friends of mine; but...

JH, Isn't that what you said LAST year (and the year before that, and the year before that, and the year.........)? Anyway, I will have NO problem getting my head in the door (I bring a shoehorn and some lubricant just in case, though).

V-man, Don't be so sure...I was hoping to make it to Moscow within the next few years...well, unless you are ducking me...oh well, there must be someone else that plays pool in Moscow...or Russian pyramids.... Definitely let me know if you are in the country for DCC; I live quite close and...

I submitted a suggestion; hope it helps, I'm not optimistic.

APA-O, You are correct. As long as you are trying to make the results even for all skill levels, then you DON'T have a "real" pool league. You might as well have a coin flipping contest to distribute the money if you don't want skill to be rewarded. Why on earth would anyone want to play a...

T-man, You are spot on about sjm; he is a great student of the game, and has always reached out to those with similar interest. The community of true students of the game is somewhat small; and I really don't know how we would ever meet without AZB. One of the first WPBA tourneys held in...
