Thank you to the good Folks at The Troubled Men Podcast for mentioning me! Finally!

Thank you to the good Folks at The Troubled Men Podcast for mentioning me! I Finally get my dues! I listen to this Podcast every week and I was surprised as anyone to hear them talk about my 9 ball masterfully in the 80's & 90's!
I'm towards the end of the latest episode #58, with Mucian guest CC Adcock who played with the Rolling Stones and Led Zepplin , they also discuss the term Chem players, shooters that used substances to enhance their focus back in the day.
Very interesting as always!
I get my cumupens!

People need to learn how to resize images, or the forum software should do it for them.

pics aren't too big for me. I'm enjoying them..it's fun to learn and see the real stuff.

Smaller pics are much better for readers....
..you can always enlarge them on your device for your own perusal.

I struggle with this myself...sometimes I have trouble re-sizing.

Those pictures were the guys signature line
when he first started posting. So everything
he shared with two words, it came along with a
half a page of those pictures.

Just came off a little 4 touchdowns in one game
at Polk High.

Nothing wrong with tooting your own horn
I suppose but dont use a fog horn:)

Was anybody able to listen without installing the app?

The radiopublic.com link that was posted works.
No app install needed.

They talk about ron being a fan of their show
and go into some rant about drinking and doing
coke while playing pool for a couple min.50:00 mark

Admittedly never heard of Ron Rosas but apparently he was one of the best. If you don't believe me, just ask him :rolleyes:

You ain't lyin!!

But all jokes about it aside, he does have some damn solid pool that is documented.

Of course, pool is a pretty dumb thing to know how to do, in the grand scene of life, but we are all guilty.

3 ball. Corner pocket.

Ron Rosas was a huge deal to us growing up in the SFV!

I don't know too many people who could beat both Earl Strickland and Buddy Hall 3-13. Lots of folks in the know, have hailed Ron as won of the best. Too bad he never toured or went on the road, I'm sure you would have heard of him then, any 9 ball pro who played Los Angeles during the 80's and 90's knew Ron Rosas, you can bet on that.
Don't let the haters get to you Ron, you were in the top 1% in your day.
And I know many folks who have learned from your method of cue control.
Way to go Ron!

Just look at that playing field!

Maybe he could regale us with some stories.
Post some tips when people are looking for help.

The guy could obviously play but, so can many on here.
I dont see anyone hating on his ability back in the day.
Posting the same old pictures makes you look like
some weird nuthugger and him like Al Bundy.

Imagine if all the pros and top regional players
on here posted every old stat and article about
them in every post they shared.

Posting that you were a druggie or "chem" player is not
a good look. I'm definitely not a teatotaler and have
no problem with adults that enjoy any drug of their
choice. Just sayin'
