Purpose? It is 2:55am on Thursday Morning,...I think. I have been down with the flu bug for a few days, and in one of my coughing fits, I decide to get up and read this entire thread,...I really must be sick!? I used to work for the BCA. I was responsible for the Leagues. It was the job of a...

Playing Cue as the Yardstick Gary Medlin. Gem Cues.

Good Players Probably some of the best money players in America. BTW, that Avatar you are using is pretty sweet! Yours?,or is that the painting from Chalkers?:thumbup: Carl

Maybe,...maybe Not. I had to laugh when I read this. Mostly because there are probably 50 players in Germany alone who gamble at the drop of a hat, and are capable of beating every one of the 25 top European Tournament Players. I have seen the German and European underbelly of the pool scene in...

I picked up my two new custom made shafts for my Gem Cue from Gary Medlin in Lake Charles,LA last Friday. Gary absolutely nailed the diameter and taper I need for my game. Full 13.25mm with custom pro taper and some pretty hard moori tips! He added some really nice joint protectors for me too...

Cash Magic Tournament Thanks, Gary! I hope to make it. Race to 5, Bar Box 9 Ball,...yeah, I can handle that.:cool: cajunfats

Mona Lisa My avi is pretty cool, I think? Deb Aarens gave me the print in 1993. The original oil on canvas is at Chalker's Billiards I believe. cajunfats

What to do? I have always imagined what contribution I would make in this regard. When I played in the German Pool League in the 80's, I wanted to bring the German Club Concept to the U.S. and promote the same skill building system they have. After watching the BCA Trade Association take the...

Time Frame Bill, I'd say "more like 25..." in my best Robert Shaw(Capt. Quint-Jaws) voice. What Market Research has been done in the past, it would be totally useless to utilize any aspect of it. Trends have changed so much, even amongst pool players in leagues. There is no organization that...

Jerryisms! Another favorite,"A wet bird,don't fly at night." What many may not know know is that Jerry Briesath is an expert marksman with a Varmint Rifle.

A True Champion A Champion of Skill and Character. Great Match and some very tense moments. The combination on the 10 was a gutsy shot! I will say that Darren Appleton will win this thing very soon. Thorsten was very gracious in his remarks, especially for fellow Countryman Oliver Ortmann. 3...

Race to 200 In the Race to 200, I like Ortmann, Schmidt and Hohmann. Appleton is hot though, and he could be in the finals. cajunfats

Photos I cannot describe how wonderful it was to see the pictures of the Hall of Fame Banquet. Especially, Oliver Ortmann. His induction to the Hall of Fame is well deserved. In 1986,as a 19 yr. old player, he ran 192 balls at a tournament in Karlsruhe, Germany. I was there, and afterwards...

Agent for Pool Players No. There is no bonafide legal representative Sports Attorney for any Professional Pool Player that I am aware of. Jeanette Lee's representation is in the Celebrity/Entertainment genre and isn't really classified as a Sports Agency. Right now, there isn't enough money...

Location, Location, Location! When the area declines, it is hard to maintain an attractive offering. Sad to say, but when a neighborhood becomes,"the Hood", it isn't good for business. cajunfats

Inventory I wonder what they are going to do with the 8 Ft. Gold Crowns they have? cajunfats
