i am a biz man and your correct, the $$ from streaming is small, if they streamed it free more people would watch they talk and that means even more NEW people watch, then it grows.
putting a price on the stream is penny wise and pound foolish.
I have always maintained that the best fun I ever had in pool was when I played on the leagues. Always!
Well said. A position stated clearly and with respect.
Unbelievable.
Is this the best you can come up with?
Wasn't long ago in one of your posts that you were blaming Johnny Archer for leading the
other players down the garden path and not caring about anyone or anything else but himself.
I think it might go a little deeper than 5 Canadians. Who are the major investors?
I bet you might change your tune if you found out that that the major investors, the ones that are making this happen with one persons idea, were anybody but Canadian.
Maybe American, maybe Asian. Then you would have someone new to blame. Without their money, BB wouldn't have happened.
I mean, The players themselves wouldn't have anything to do with it. They are just looking for a steady pay check.
As in the past, present and future, they will follow anyone with a bag full of money and a pocketful of dreams to sell.
If that doesn't work for you, you can blame Larry's Mother and Father. Then go back a little further and blame the English and French that landed on the east coast of a large piece of land, later to become known as Canada.

Diverted a little time early to AZ Jen. I was out in the garden and heading back out in a bit.
Crappy weather up here for this time of the year. Hoping for a bit more sunshine and heat
so my little plants will grow.
Also hoping for some sunshine on pool in general so that can grow as well.
As far as the scheduling conflicts go Jen, many of us have been posting about it for some time now.
We are on the same side re that one. Just not the blame the Canuckians for everything bad right now.
Believe it or not, we do have many goofy Canucks up here as well. We don't know what to do with them all so we send a few your way with hope that they will stay.
Look at all the good actors we gave you guys.
Tommy Douglas, one of the best Politicians ever and the Father of our Health Care System is Keifer Sutherland's Grandpa. Bet ya didn't know that.
We do appologize for Jim Carey tho.

I have MANY friends in Canada, some in the pool world. Played poker with Luc Salvas, watched him play pool many times. Love Ronnie Wiseman, watched him many times, been on his side and against his sidw. When we went to the Glass City Open, there were quite a few Canadian players that I made friends with. We went to the horse races with a couple of them, and I hit a bit one. I have nothing whatsoever against Canadian folk. I have their pictures. I'll post 'em up later when time allows. Maybe you can tell me their names. Some of them, I forgot but recognize their face, Joe, Frank, and a guy with a long pony tail.
I do, however, not care for a Canadian company coming on American soil and disrupting American pool for their own gain. That is what I don't like. Nathan, Dave, and Larry just happen to be Canadian, I guess. If they were Nigerian, I'd say the same thing.
Dag, most of my photos are on another computer, which I have yet to put back together, but here's one of a few of my Canadian friends. The guy on the left, I think that's Joe. We partied for a week at the Glass City Open, along with the guy on the right and his lady friend. I can't remember his name, but he sure was cute.
By the way, how many Canadians are playing in Bonus Ball?

I can understand that. Its just that the Canadian this and Canadian that get a little old after a bit.
The ethnicity of the person that came up with this idea has not much bearing on the impact and the future of BB vs other Pro Pool events.
You gotta get past that and support what you believe in just as I am doing.
I knew that Chib and some of the others were Canadian but until you brought it up, I never thought of blaming any of them for the country that they were born in.
I just thought it was plain rude to be talking to the Pool promoters the way they were and seemingly not trying to make any consolations for their actions and trying to work out a solution for all.
Nice pic and all but if you hadn't mentioned that they were Canadian, who would have guessed. We look kinda like you guys. Well, except in the winter, and then you can pick us out pretty easily. We're the people wearing ear muffs and toques.

My favorite Canadian player, besides Ronnie, is Luc. I have trouble understanding him sometimes. He speaks a little English, but with a thick French accent. His wife and daughter came to the IPT in Vegas. They were so beautiful, looked like models. You could see Luc was proud as punch of his family, letting them see him perform. It was kind of neat.
Luc and Keith both play super fast.
