I shouldn't have to explain Keith McCready's articles that he wrote for InsidePOOL on AzBilliards forum, but I cannot stand by and watch people like you rip Keith apart with lies. He doesn't deserve it.
Do you think you're cute slamming InsidePOOL magazine on AzBilliards Discussion Forum? You know exactly what you're doing, and I hope the necessary precautions will be taken to prevent this from happening.
Well, let's set the record straight then, Jake. The bunch of people who "objected," as you put it, have one thing in common. They are trouble-makers, much like you. Some of them are banned, which speaks volumes about the caliber of posters you are referring to.
Nope.
Now you show your ignorance.
I watched a YouTube video recently of Ralf Souquet and Ronnie Alcano at the awards ceremony in the Philippines at the WPC.
I got chills watching the short video clip. It was magical, and I really enjoyed it. What really caught my attention, though, was the way the jolly Filipinos embraced players from around the world, welcoming them with open arms. When I saw Ralf get emotional in his acceptance speech as runner-up, the tears welled up in my eyes, and then to see the whole house chanting his name, "Souquet, Souquet, Souquet," it gave me goosebumps!
I have always said in the past that pool's toughest critics come from within its own culture. I am wrong. It's only the American critics from within the American pool culture that have kept pool in the gutter in this country.
You can continue to demean American players, Jake. Keith may be the flavor of the month for a flamer like you, but I gotta tell you that there are some American pool players who will still hold their head up high because they know who they are, and nobody -- not even you, Jake -- will ever be able to take it away from them.
