He was getting on your case because your posts were two faced, which I have to agree with.Not sure what the hell your problem is. You don't know me and I sure as hell don't know you.
Seems like you are demeaning Jason's accomplishments and his abilities. Perhaps you should try to emulate his record.
Let's say you have a national 9-ball champion.... does that mean he/she can't play 8-ball? You have a world class snooker player.... does that mean he/she can't play any other cue sport. With enough time and effort I guess a champion class player could excel at other cue sports.
Without knowing me you belittle my playing abilities based on what... the limited BCAPL results. You mentioned that the folks that defeated me didn't go very deep. Apply the same logic a little further. Where or how did their opponents do? Maybe they lost to one of two taiwanese players.
Not sure how I am being hypocritical when I say, I fully believe the BCAPL does a great job at promoting the sport. However I do feel that sometimes they do not follow their own rules or policies to the letter of the law. I still stand by my "Actions speak louder than words" when I see what happens with the Taiwanese players.
You have made a few assumptions about me in the same way I made some assumptions about Jason. I now have some assumptions about you. Who knows maybe someday we will match up at the BCAPL Nationals.
Unfortunately you do have the advantage since you know my full name but I don't know yours.
Before I forget because of your erroneous assumptions about me.... I accept your apology!!!!!!!!!! :grinning-moose::grinning-moose::grinning-moose:
You said
Yet you implied that you tried to get your ref friend to disqualified him based on those results. You didn't directly say that you were trying to get him DQ'ed, but the only reason to bring that to the attention to BCAPL officials would be because you want to win by forfeit even though you know that speed pool has nothing to do with actual pool.Now I realize that being a National Speed Pool Champion for MULTIPLE years doesn't really reflect a person's abilities to play in the open BUT I was surprised to say the least.
Then you go on to call the BCAPL somewhat hypocritical because they allow a national champion into the event. This might be the case were it not for your self-admitted fact that speed pool has jack shit to do with normal pool. You might as well try disqualifying golfers, bowlers, and poker players while you are at it because they have more skills that translate to pool playing skill than speed pool and trick shots.
The points you bring up about 9 ball players and snooker players not being eligible for the 8 ball event isn't relevant to your argument because snooker and 9 ball skills actually do translate to 8 ball skill.
