So, you were working a deal to finally give him the car?
That's good to hear. Hope it is still running good.
Are you delivering it or does he have to come get it?
I like when stories have happy endings.
Aloha.
Than why did you bad mouth it before ? I'm saying is if that is the only thing he has "done for pool" than it's clearly not enough to win the bet. He played pool, and was determined to be very good at it by pool folks that agreed he played well.
THat does not promote the sport, move the sport forward, bring new people in the sport. This is not an action award, like you are now trying make it become. Nice PR skills by the way, but it's not really gonna work. I'm not that slow
Who has done more for the game of pool, Mark Griffin, or Bugs Rucker?
I'm not saying I'm Mark Griffin, just like SJD was no Bugs, but that is the point I'm trying to make. And its no knock on SJD or Bugs, they were not involved with moving the sport forward or promoting the game for whatever reasons.... that's fine.
But SJD clearly asked about my contributions, and I said lets put up then if you think I have not. I only said I've done more than him, and I have. He played better than me. But I never said he didn't. I've NEVER attacked his skills in the game, not once.
But SJD is about the same age as my dad, and SJD is showing some of the same signs of dementia too, with the insults and the 3rd grade tirades, inability to stay on topic, so I'm not gonna rob him. Let him use his money to spend it on the ladies. Just another thread that SJD has a habit of turning south quickly.. just like at 1P.org.
So, I'm done arguing about it anymore. You two can enjoy it. I'm going back to NPR where we can get some stuff accomplished
..I got one from him too, only it wasn't a PM !..I caught it before he realized he'd better edit it !
)
I did not bad mouth the HOF. What I said was that I thought it was pathetic that a player whom they would induct, they would ban.
And, depending on the point of view of whomever is doing the judging you could lose your bet, whatever it is

Thank you for passing that on Rod..A few guys have already informed Jeff, that I cannot post on 1P.org...I hope someone will pass this on to him... I would be more than happy to accept his apology, if I could get him to adjust his story !
I am getting old and forgetful, but I am certain I never lost ANY car, on the road EVER !..And If I had, I damn sure wouldn't have stiffed anyone for it !...I also don't recall EVER booking a loser in Amarillo, and I played Andy Olgiun there, numerous times, often with Slim Preston staking him, 'til he saw Andy couldn't win !
If Jeff had busted me, he probably would have busted Slim too, and thats a whole bunch of cars there !...Also, the time line is a bit off !..I was not that proud of my bar table game, in the late 60's..As I was telling John H., I wish I could locate Andy...He was in the action joint (there was only one) 24/7 and if he says I got beat in there, I must have been too drunk to "drive off" !..It was a hell of a good story Jeff, but it just wasn't me that you played !
SJD
PS..By the way, I stopped in that old rough, tough cowboy bar, (the action joint) just a few years ago on my way to a funeral in Wichita !..Its still there.. I sit down, and order a drink, and I see about 6 couples on the dance floor...ALL MEN, no women..The old joint is now a 'gay' bar !..(not that theres anything wrong with that
Jeff knew who you were Dick. And if he busted someone, and that someone lost a car to him, I think he would remember, but good try.
P.S. No tellin' what you lost in the gay bar.
Once again Bunter, you have proven to me, (and most others).. that you know absolutely nothing, about ANYTHING pool related !..Your incessant silly PM's to me, only further confirm my convictions !..Your record is perfect..you have not been right one time about any of your unfounded accusations !..You are obviously, a non-playing, non-gambling, disturbed individual, in extreme denial ! (and thats putting it VERY politely) !
Bunter, I seriously doubt you could make a 'Special Olympics' team, for the handicapped without cheating the poor kids!
..I feel quite certain, Jeff and I will come to a reasonable accord, regarding what did, or did not happen 40 some years ago..Remember the Artie/Beard confrontation, about what happened, and when ? ..I don't think that was EVER resolved, to anyones satisfaction !
Until then Bunthead, you could best serve yourself, by butting out, when the grown-ups are talking !..Your clamoring for attention, by attacking me, only makes you look more like Mr.Birriards with your every post ! (now theres a guy worthy of emulating) :sorry:
PS..I'm sure you will respond in your usual [sic] intelligent manner, thus making yourself look even more mentally deficient!...(what a surprise that would be)
Bunter's most flattering recent mug shot ! :wink:

And the same logic applies... maybe some folks wanted to forget a bad "incident", and has since passed it out of his memory. Some tend to think if a player beat a guy out of a car, he'd remember that the rest of his life.
Kind of sux when someone you like is on the other side of a negative story, huh ? Your retainer fee on this story is gonna be HUGE, enjoy the extra cash and take your lovely wife out for a nice dinner, enjoy yourselves
