Billiards Digest on Danny Basavich

[Sweet Marissa]

I was reading through Billiards Digest last night, and am appalled at the derogatory statements about Danny's weight when they were spoofing titles for the upcoming movie. I've met Danny and his girlfriend, both very nice people, and he certainly doesn't deserve to be made fun of like this. This movie is about Danny's life playing pool, not his stature. I wonder how many people on their staff are perfect??

If you feel strongly enough to e-mail or write a letter to the editor, it has been my experience that the Billiards Digest staff is receptive and, if deemed appropriate, will respond in the next issue of the magazine.

Been there and done that!

Weight is one of the last acceptable prejudices.
