Eydie,
Did you realize that you scheduled this the same time as Krazy in Kenosha. If Bob was putting a team together for Krazy, he'd have a tough time being at both events. Krazy in Kenosha is April 7-9.
 
Susie,

this seems to be happening quite frequently now....to everybody...hmmmmmmmm.... maybe there is something to be said for working together.....or NOT CARING AT ALL WHAT OTHER PEOPLE ARE DOING....

There would be much larger turn outs at tournaments if people checked what was scheduled and cared......

Most people do not schedule on top of scheduled events....hmmmmmm

Chicagoland Pool
 
Here's a bit of news for both of you.

First Susie Did know, she got a personal call and an email like everyone else including you JOHN, she and I both know this. The problem with Susie, is that she doesn't shut her mouth long enough to listen to what others have to say. I was the one that posted the info on the Kenosha Event, not YOU Susie. If you were THAT worried about it, why didn't you post it yourself? In addition to that I sent it to my entire mailer.

Now John,

You are new to this, and you have scheduled events each weekend.. Check your own listings you have an event EVERY weekend. Open mouth insert foot John.

You out of the blue decided to come in and be the new tournament director de jour. Well, I have some news for you my friend, you don't own every weekend of the year and conflicts will happen, so deal with it.

In addition JOHN, You are putting on events at a bar that owes me money for a tournament I did for them. You know this. AND, you expect me to promote and work with you on your events at the same bar? Think about it John, let's see, I'm dumb enough to send them more revenue when they owe me money? You gotta be kidding me!

You are right...Conflicts will happen. Although conflicts are not set up and planned. However, you on the other hand have told several people that you are going to do what you can to hurt the tournaments of those you do not like.... Therefore yours are not conflicts they are malicious attempts at making sure they do not have a good turn out.

As far as Susie is concerned,
Whatever happened between you should stay between you. I read a post and replied. It does seem even more evident that you believe most people do what they can to bad mouth you, NOT the case. People see what happens and form their own oppinions.

By far the truth that has been spoken about me in the past has hurt. However, I tried to realize that what was spoken may have actually been true and it pissed me off. Not because it was said but becasue I was not able to defend myself. So I began to bad mouth the people saying it and believe it or not I was alot younger than you are now when I realized it...WHAT IS TAKING YOU SO LONG!!!

The truth hurts. If you do not like to hear the truth.... CLOSE YOUR EARS.
If you do not want to hear the lies.... CLOSE YOUR MOUTH.

With that being said...All I am doing is begining to sound like someone I do not want to be, so I guess this will be the last you hear from me. So sorry to have lost you as a potential friend....but that seems to happen often with you lately so i am not going to lose any sleep.

John
 
John,

The only malicious attempts were made by YOU. You and only YOU are at a bar that owes me from a prior tournament. YOU have not addressed the question, as always you are oblivious to your suroundings. Who in their right mind would help you promote events at a bar that owed YOU money? Helloo, are you listening... I told you many many many times that I would help you with Rudy's but not with the other one. Helloo... YOU still don't get it.:rolleyes:

So common John, you have a tournament the same day as Susie's at that "OTHER" bar.. Did you forget that? Hellooo? Hello John are you there? :rolleyes:
Can I refresh your memory:

APA 8 Ball Doubles National Championships
April 8th 2006 @ 1:00pm / Rudy's Place

This has been published info, so what are you talking about?
 
Hmmmmm....Lets see...as usual you are right...but then again you do not know all the facts...like many do not know all the facts about how many people you claim have screwed you...cry wolf and eventually no one listens or cares..... Like in this case...it seems unusally odd that this paticular bar has never had a problem w/ owing me...they take care of it on the spot....Maybe there was something more to them not paying you...I do not know for sure... And it really does not matter to me. But was there??????

Did I mention that J.R. Buhs and I are putting together a National APA Doubles Qualifier at his event as well that same weekend. Ya see....not every one is unable to work with other people. Do I need to remind you of this over and over.

When people call and ask for assistance you will find it to be much more in your favor to accomadate them than to try and do what you can to hurt them....If that means adjustments...that is part of life...

You deal with it....sound familiar..

Maybe you should make a more informed opinion of yourself and re-evaluate what has happened to you and ask WHY????

We all need to step back and look at ourselves from a different direction once in a while...It helps us to see who we really are...
 
John, you make me laugh! :D

Let's do memory check with you again, since you seem to have full blown CRS. I am not the only one that has been screwed by that bar. Both you and I know this, so don't you dare accuse me of anything. You might get paid because maybe you own the tables or have an investment? Maybe as you have directly said, "You are their last chance" Remember sayingthat to me? Or does CRS have your tongue again?:rolleyes:

Let's see. You scheduled the event at Rudy's on the same day as both me and Susie. Now you want to trash my thread about my tournament because of your own insecurities... ROFLMAO!:rolleyes:

I am happy for JR, he is a great guy and is a asset to the pool world. Back to what I said it the post above, I was the one that posted his info for his event AND did a mass mailer, NOT Susie, so what are you telling me? Hellooo John, Hello!

Susie is a great person who tries very hard, she knows that I would never do anything to hurt her event and she knows in her heart that I called her about it.

To all that are reading this parody, the scheduling of these 2 events are the Chicago, IL area and Wisconsin. They are 2 completely different events, one is a 5 man team event and the other is a scotch doubles... These events are hours away from each other and John and Susie seem to feel that my scotch double is a threat. My scotch doubles was scheduled BEFORE John's and Susie's 5 man team was scheduled before my scotch doubles...It's completely laughable and childish. Talk about insecure, Hello again John! Go for it, have a great time and I wish you well...

Maybe you should make a more informed opinion of yourself and re-evaluate what has happened to you and ask WHY???? Back at ya!! YOU, yes YOU JOHN are the one that falls waist high in contradiction!

John, you are the one who is so insecure that you would go on to my thread to bash me.. I could go to all of your threads and bash you there too, but I will not stoop to your insecure level of immaturity!

BTW~ You still have not answered the questions directed at you.. What's wrong John, controdiction got your tongue? To busy trying to undercut me?

I could have had the thread pulled and didn't because it was far nicer watching YOU make an a$$ out of yourself. ;)

What you said above... asinine. Johnny Archer & Earl Strickland have always gotten paid by Berhman.... Danny Harriman & Mika Immonen can't say the same thing. Why is that???

People run into money problems and have to decide which bill to pay... maybe they've always paid all of their bills but now they can't and so someone gets stiffed while someone else gets paid.

A pool player borrows money from three different people and only pays one or two of them back...

Are you getting the point??? Just because they pay YOU, doesn't mean they pay everyone else.:rolleyes:

CP,

I run a Regional Tour in the PA/NJ/NY/MD area. There is another Regional Tour to the north of me that I always communicate with on dates. The reason being is because we all draw the same players, so it is definitely in our best interests to not stomp on each other's dates.

However, we're talking APA here. Correct me if I'm wrong, but there's got to be thousands of APA players within the states having these events, right? I think you've got no reason to bash on susie or Eydie about the coinciding events.

Barbara
 
Hey Barbara!

Actually it's a tag team between CP and Susie. She is all pissed because I scheduled a APA scotch during the same dates as her APA team which are 2 hours away from each other and in different states! :rolleyes:

Then CP comes in jumping on the bandwagon with Susie throwing in a scotch qualifier at her event to try and trash my event. It's the funniest thing between the two of them, it's amazing how much dog sh$t they both can step in together. They are a good team...lol :D We will have completely different people from these different areas.

Then CP comes on my thead (here) to bash me... Well, lol... I know by the response of many many emails I have received and post's, he has managed to discredit himself here on this forum and to many players in our area, So he does not worry me in the least!.

DP has now scheduled an event every weekend for the next several months...lol! Good thing he's not going on his reputation here! We will see!

I apologize to all of you that do not know all of what has transpired here. This may not have been the best place to discuss what has been going on, however if someone has told you and several other people that they were going to schedule events on top of yours just because they do not like the place you are holding your event I am going to assume that would make you a little upset as well.

As far as the 2 hour difference...it may be true with Krazy in Kenosha. NOT the case with my events. Darien IL is 25 minutes up Highway 55 from Joliet IL.

I can totally understand not sending e-mails or even supporting a tournament at a bar that owes you money, but who are you really messing with...ME or the bar. When tournaments start getting scheduled on top of one another because you do not like where I am holding them, you are simply messing with me.

To not promote a bar that owes you money is what I would do. What I would not do is begin to schedule events on top of yours because that would be malicious to you....NOT THE BAR.

The APA National Doubles Championships that have been referred to as me "owning every weekend", well these are qualifier boards just like many bars hold for the APA National Singles Event. By the way they have a max APA combined handicap of ten (10). I do not remember the last time Eydie had a lower handicap event scheduled until she saw the flyer that was e-mailed for the Qualifers. Now there is an APA 5's and under event. 25 minutes up the road.

Everyone that is reading each and every reply and response is right. This is childish. Childish is a term used to describe someone acting as a child. You are all right I am being childish responding to to each reply posted.

This will stop!!!!

But what wil not stop are the malicious attempts by Eydie to continue scheduling events on top of mine because she is mad at the bar where I hold my events.

Are we all trying to promote a sport we love or are we all here to just smash tournaments at places (bars & pool halls) we do not like?

Chicagolandpool
 
He Just Don't Get IT!

Again John, more out right lies on your part.. We have been doing 5's and under and scotch doubles event's for years now. All anyone has to do is go back in the history of AZB and pull up all the Tournament listings I have posted for years now. Again, you have absolutly no clue of what you are talking about. It's amazing that you can crawl out of the woodwork and try and belittle my name, but all you have succeeded in doing again, is making a complete a$$ of yourself..


My events were sent out the second part of Feb. See below:

THIS IS 2 WEEKS AFTER I SENT OUT MY EVENTS..:rolleyes:
Anyone that would like to see the original confirmation, I would be more than willing to send it to you, just ask..

Considering that you John, have an event scheduled every weekend of the month, how can you accuse me of scheduling over you when there is no other oppertunity to schedule when you have already? Hello... OMG, you gotta be kidding me... ANSWER THAT QUESTION!! Quit your lies and just stand up and answer the question instead of more of your lies...

So again John, open mouth insert your foot. Geez, don't you get tired of that? To answer you question, and that is more then I can say for you answering mine, because YOU don't address legitimate questions directed to you, as it always has been, my problem is with the bar. Try answering the questions I have presented to you...Why don't you understand that? Why don't you tell everyone that I suggested other places and even told you that I would get you in over at Q, to help you out.. REMEMBER?

If we get requests for any type of event, we run em. I don't need your permisssion to continue doing my job.

Now, since I keep all my IM's here is a copy of the IM we had between us 2 weeks ago, to again refresh your CRS memory..The only change to the IM is that I omitted the name of the other person.

Jgray6987 [5:13 P.M.]: Hi.....eydie

Am I to assume that you no longer want to work with each other regarding pool tournaments.
Windycityopen [5:14 P.M.]: No whay John?
Windycityopen [5:14 P.M.]: what
Jgray6987 [5:16 P.M.]: I just realized that I get all the e-mails for your tounaments, yet i do not receive any of my tournament fliers back from you. Makes me think that you do not foward them to your e-mail list when there is no conflict with one of your tournaments.

Windycityopen [5:18 P.M.]: I have not forwarded yours or anyone elses for that fact in months. Why do I need to explain that to u? I have a email list of over 6000 people and not one of them have received anything of mine from you. So what are you telling me?
Windycityopen [5:20 P.M.]: You know John, I have been in this business for over 5 years now... You have come in the past 6 months and gone to a place that owes me and (name omitted) money and want us to promote your venues for you> I told you that I would be happy to help you with Rudy's and I still am, BUT NOT CLUB BC!
Jgray6987 [5:21 P.M.]: This is the first flier I got from you in a long time....and I have posted your Q tournaments on my web page.... have e-mailed your fliers to my list...so what you are saying is that your list is bigger than mine....therefore we cannot help each other.
Jgray6987 [5:22 P.M.]: I thought you helped me and I helped you to help each other....after all we both would not have as many tournaments if there was no where to hold them....

Windycityopen [5:23 P.M.]: I am saying that people that we both have and you know who they are are telling me that you don't send my stuff.. But that's besides the point because I have not sent anything for anyone in months.
I have also looked on your website several times and not seen anything of mine. But, I am not saying it was not there, I am saying I did not see it anytime
Windycityopen [5:23 P.M.]: I will help you as long as it is not CLUB BC
Windycityopen [5:24 P.M.]: I will never ever promote anything that they will make money from when they owe me money and treated me and my staff terrible
Windycityopen [5:24 P.M.]: why should I?
Windycityopen [5:25 P.M.]: If you get all my emails, then you will see that I have not sent anyone elses tournaments out. Not Mike Janis who is a good friend of mine or Steddy neddy or anyone else
Jgray6987 [5:25 P.M.]: So that is the reason you 1000 added was put that weekend in march.....and yet i still let a player from q pass out fliers at one of my tournaments I held on sunday....You see these are my tournaments not theres so the person thatis getting hurt is me...
Windycityopen [5:25 P.M.]: The money and the events are UP TO THE BAR> I HAVE TOLD YOU THIS MANY TIMES BEFORE>
Windycityopen [5:26 P.M.]: I did not send that person and have no idea who it was
Windycityopen [5:26 P.M.]: until u called bob
Windycityopen [5:26 P.M.]: I have NEVER gone into your area, and passed out fliers or sent anyone
Jgray6987 [5:27 P.M.]: Actually any tournament I hold is up to me....not the bar....or I do not do them....most bar owners do not know what types of tournaments to hold or how to properly advertise them and run them.
Windycityopen [5:27 P.M.]: My dates times and added money are all up to my bar.. I have no say so if that is the date they want
Windycityopen [5:28 P.M.]: they have bands and other events so their events are limited
Jgray6987 [5:28 P.M.]: I am not saying you did send someone....but what did it hurt for me to let them pass em out....one or two people not coming is not a big deal
Windycityopen [5:28 P.M.]: I have told you this so many times and you just don't get it
Jgray6987 [5:28 P.M.]: What i do not get is that bob told me he asked you if there was a tournament conflict that weekend and YOU said no
Windycityopen [5:29 P.M.]: That was your call not mine and I did no send the person, and I still don't know who iot was
Jgray6987 [5:29 P.M.]: does it matter who it was....I LET HIM.....
Windycityopen [5:29 P.M.]: we were at Q when we scheduled it. when I spoke with you, you knew I didn't remember that date...
Windycityopen [5:30 P.M.]: Besides it's not going to hurt your event
Jgray6987 [5:30 P.M.]: your tourney....your name....etc....

Windycityopen [5:30 P.M.]: we have had schedule conflicts before and if you remember correctly, I SENT YOU PLAYER!!!
Windycityopen [5:31 P.M.]: Look, John, I am not going to argue with you. I have been in this business, this is my full time business, you have another job... I will do what my bar ask's me to. I will promote your events as long as they are not at club bc
Jgray6987 [5:32 P.M.]: PS....i do not have another job

Windycityopen [5:32 P.M.]: you picked them, you have to deal with the consequences that they did alienating us from them
Windycityopen [5:32 P.M.]: you did last time I spoke with u
Windycityopen [5:33 P.M.]: there are other bars that would work with you. I even reccomended some to you months ago, but YOU elected to stay with them
Jgray6987 [5:33 P.M.]: well.....i guess we will have sheduling conflicts for a while to come then....
Windycityopen [5:33 P.M.]: Looks that way
Windycityopen [5:34 P.M.]: and BTW, we are having another event april 1 and 2
Windycityopen [5:34 P.M.]: lots of added money
Jgray6987 [5:34 P.M.]: it seems that you will not work with me because you do not like where I hold MY TOURNAMENTS.......well...as I have said they are MY TOURNAMENTS not thers
Windycityopen [5:36 P.M.]: But you are making her money and she owes me money
Windycityopen [5:36 P.M.]: so why don't you get it?
Jgray6987 [5:36 P.M.]: Well I am going to eat some dinner....and I guess we will just end it at....not woking with each other....although that just hurts both of us
Windycityopen [5:37 P.M.]: I told you I will work with you with anything at Rudy's .I told you that from day 1. You just want me to roll over and do as you wish, and you just don't understand that they treated us terrible. I will NOT and never will promote their bar.
Windycityopen [5:38 P.M.]: I can't understand why you don't understand that!! If it was you and I was at a place that owed you money for doing an event you would be PISSED
Windycityopen [5:38 P.M.]: so stop this and tey and understand
Windycityopen [5:38 P.M.]: try
Jgray6987 [5:39 P.M.]: K
Jgray6987 [5:40 P.M.]: But then again I do it for you not for where you are.

Bye
Jgray6987 signed off at 5:40 P.M.

Again John, good luck with your events. You have managed to completely discredit yourself on this forum, looks like you are in the red to me. Thank's to all that have writen and called me regarding this, you all are great and I appreciate your support!

I will not reply anymore....

but before I sign off....I have heard both sides of why you did not get paid at Club BC and choose now to believe Club BC....

Let me just say this: you can keep going from bar t bar and place to place but there seems to be a pattern here...

Everywhere you used to run tournaments screwed you....in most cases if there are ten people that have a problem with one it is usually the one that is wrong not the ten....

If you cannot handle the fact that maybe you did not do what you said you would or did more of what you said you would not do,that is your problem. But as usual you will blame them not you...

Pay for everything for me...even a room for people not involved in the tournament, oh yeah I will let everyone I know put their food on my bill so they get 50% off...I would not pay you either....

Cannot seem to think of anyone that would...

Take advantage of someone they do not pay you.

According to your e-mail you stopped sending e-mail out for everyone, yet you tell susie you sent stuff for her 3 weeks ago....who is the liar.

I am done with you because you are meaningless in my life and if anyone agrees you I am done with them as well....

You think that you could make me run MY tournaments where you wanted me to and because you couldn't you are mad....well wake up and understand "that guy that told you life was fair....lied to you"

I will do all I can to help support and promote the sport I like....and if wish to keep trying to make this all about poor poor eydie that didnt get because she took too much...have at it...have fun....and I am sure I will hear in the future how someone else or some other bar screwed you and just laugh because I know there will be a reason they did not pay you.
 
Seeing how we have made this public, why don't you explain to all the nice folks following this saga why Club BC said they did not and will not pay you....

John, Is that all you have? Pretty lame grasping at straws.. ChicagolandPOOL or ChicagolandFOOL? lol

Yes, I sent it for Susie, check your mail...lol! You know I did! lol! I would help Susie, NOT you at that bar. Geez, you're stupid.. Hello? Is there even anyone inside there? You're sure coming up empty!

Let me remind YOU that YOU, YOU idiot started this. Go back to your first post on my thread. You have proven yourself to be a liar and and idiot. You grow to idiotic proportions each day! It makes my day watching you make a fool of yourself!:D

Is that all you can come up with is poor Eydie? You still have not addressed and answered the questions and the facts as they are. How about it John, answer the direct questions instead of throwing accusations.. You are a fool, you have proven it time after time here. But I appreciate you keeping my thread on the top in doing so! lol:D

Again John as seen throughout this thread... You are a liar and a person of less then ethical intentions.

Again fool, good luck, you're going to need it!
