Jerry,

I don't even know where to begin on this. I have a million and one things to say about this post, but I'll only share a few.

It is obvious that you are a very opinionated person (from reading your posts and from what other people have told me), and that, in and of itself, is fine. Where I have a problem is you shooting off your mouth and making the above comment. I have been an open opponent of the rating system here in Arizona for some time so I can only assume that I am one of the "stupid people that recommend getting rid of the ratings all together".

If you think that I am that "stupid", then let me ask you these questions. How did I get to where I am today? Do you know me on a personal level? Do you know how hard I've worked in my life to get to where I am (personally or professionally)? Do you know what I do for a living? Do you know anything about me other that what you've seen online? If not, then how do you know me to be a person that is "stupid" or "not stupid" What evidence have I given you?

In the past 4 or 5 years, I have probably played in a total of 10 handicapped tournaments. I don't enjoy them. And I do think the rating system hurts Arizona. I look at other states and cities that hold frequent tournaments with open fields (New York, Florida, Texas, California, etc...) and their talent pool is just as strong as anyone elses, if not stronger.

But this is somewhat besides the point of my post. My point is that I can tell you what my opinion is and not insult you or put you down for having a different opinion than mine. If you've noticed I've completely stopped posting on AZPoolScene.com's forum for this very reason. In your online persona, you treat people poorly and often come across harsh, tactless, and extremely opinionated. It's too bad because when Ron ran that website, I enjoyed going there to read the news.

I apologize to the original poster of this thread and to all those who are a part of this thread. I usually don't hijack threads, but felt compelled to defend myself from Stuckart's comments.

jerry takes countless assaults on him and the ratings committee. i do not blame him for responding with a lil harshness. jerry is a hell of a good guy and bears the burden of being a focal point on the ratings issue. he posts replies straight from the heart and i like that. we are all on the same side here. we are all trying to do the same thing here and that's promote pool.
if half you guys put forth half of the effort jerry does into pool all of our problems would be no more. im not defending jerry here i am sayin what i know to be true.
 
BVAL,What do you mean this is what the forums are for. You didnt say anything to Jerry when he called me and few other people stupid.

This thread has got pretty interesting. IMO, of all the 8's on the list... it is a toss up on who is going to win. One thing I know for sure... I have never beat bval and I think Justin and I are even when we play.

Jude - It would be great to have you come out and play with us.

I would like to see the field expanded.... I know there are more 8's out there that want to get in on the action!

-Carlos

As far as what size table.... I don't care, I play equally bad on each. :o

Thanks but I will not be playing.. you and I should get together and hit some soon.
