are you a pretentious pool A-hole???

Bro pool shouldn't look like Tai Chi. Way too much body English . Just let the haters hate John. You will only make the trolls stronger by feeding them.

Already on it. You're right about the Tai Chi....I got moves for days. But sometimes I settle down and play right.
 
Anyone else find it as hilarious as I do that a bunch of crusty, old pool players whom apparently roll fairly high flock to these boards to verbally swat at each other like teenage girls? No wonder the game has went under, it seems the people who are most involved with it are a bunch of 'primadonnas.'

Seems like everytime I bother to look at this forum there's a thread bumped up pretty high that's nothing but people pointing fingers and making empty threats, if any of you were planning on getting physical it would have happened the numerous times you were face-to-face, settle down.

Really?

The last time there was a little finger pointing by these crusty, old pool players it resulted in a match for $20,000, streamed live by Pat Fleming from the Accu-Stats Arena in NJ, and drew around 800 viewers over two days.

What've you been up to lately?

wait ... who won?

Don King never tips his hand and gives away this type of information so you will need to pay for the rematch to see who the real champ is!

The roo who quietly minded his work. The big fat loudmouth is barking for a rematch, however.

(Do roos bark?)

He was referring to my kangaroo slapping/boxing match I posted. I was just trying to lighten the mood a bit.

pretentious pool A-hole?

It's a shame pool has reached that level. I remember the good old days when people were just regular old a-holes. Now these pretentious a-holes have showed up and ruined it for the rest of us.

Take a guy like Dirty Low Down Red. He would lie, hustle cheat, steal and do whatever it took to get you cash but I doubt if anybody ever accused him of being a pretentious a-hole. Nothing pretentious about the guy, his stuff was all out there for everybody to see.

Plus, Pretentious Red is a lousy nickname. It has zero character.

Eric, I don't know you in the least and don't have a dog in this race. I seem to recall someone, perhaps it was Scott Lee, told me he has met you and you're a really good guy. I would tell you that making any kind of physical threat, even implied, in writing, on the internet, is not a good idea. I wouldn't think you'd want to put yourself at risk for legal, or civil, ramifications over some stupid internet pool argument.

Yep, thats why people think you are out of your mind. You work the truth and reality like it is a piece of Silly Putty, til the image suits you. I know you think of yourself as a pseudo-savvy, court room lawyer BUT in reality, you are nothing more than a cheap, used car salesman, with the way you twist things.

See my replies, below:



Lastly, John-boy, You are not the stand-up-to-bullies crusader victim you think you are. In fact, you are really the antagonist. You provkoe, provoke until you get the fight, then you claim you are the one standing up to the ones that persecute you.

Sounds like you are not crazy, right??

#7. You're not a nice guy nor a good person. That much I found out in my travels. You're despised in St.Louis and surrounding cities by many who have had the displeasure to play you or be around you. I got to the point where I felt sorry for you actually.

I may be an asshole on here but people are glad to see me show up in the pool room. From what I gathered no one likes to see you show up in the pool room. When I show up we have a good time and some fun action ensues. When you show up the mood takes a downward turn. And from what one of your former air force colleagues said it was no different when you were working.

So, you have your vision of who you are and it doesn't line up with a lot of other people's. Were it only me then sure, I am the jerk and you are the saint. Well I a jerk but so are you and in me you finally attacked someone who won't lay down for your crap. You act so innocent....boo hoo john talked smack before the match and won't admit your own shit stirring for YEARS.

All my talking was based on facts Lou. Facts that you continue to prove out each time you continue this way.

Now 10ahead for 20 thousand is the only thing we need to really talk about.

You offered a 9 ahead previously and I was very dumb not to accept it. So you're not averse to an ahead set. Let's agree on the length and the bet over 20k and dance again.[/QUOTE]

Mr. Barton,

Lou is a close friend of mine. He has offered me repeated help, advice, guidance, and friendship related to things on and off the pool table. He has many friends in St. Louis, which you have chosen to not speak with.

Let's get back to what matters. You playing Lou again...

It would appear to me that Lou is correct. You know he will not agree to a 10 ahead set, so you only offer to play a set he won't agree to. Other than a 10 ahead set, what do you want? Make a counteroffer.

You are not going to make a counteroffer, because you are not serious about playing...all bark, no bite.

Is the JB vs LF match on you tube?? I thought it was but couldn't find it.

I wanted to go back and watch it again. I remember it not being as close as JB has mentioned that it was in this thread.

Sure the score may have been close, but the level of play wasn't.

Damn it ... I can't sleep at night now wondering which 'roo won the fight!!!
