Emily Frazer saved pool

Could a tiny black snake really kill a grown hawk and get killed by the hawk at the same time too?
You’re a bit un-informed on this subject….google Barry Hearn.
Emily Frazer put the face to face time in with the players. Those first few matchroom events, where the players were unruly has ended. Now the players are almost promo perfect.
Emily set a good example of how to use social media with her instagram, twitter and podcast.
Thank you Emily.
Thank you Barry for investing the money and letting Emily lead the operation.
When a woman is in a leadership position with financial support, she can accomplish as much or more than what any man has ever done.
Anyone who lets sponsorship money change the color of the balls isn't saving anything.
Other than that, I don't hate her.
Doesn't matter what sex a person is.
Never has.
No one here ever said it did.

Maybe they’re just napping.
Similar things can happen pretty easily. Birds have a crop, a bag or pouch to store food they don't have time to eat for whatever reason. More food to be gobbled, a threat, whatever. I was watching and photographing a snowy egret fishing the edge of the opening going to the Bonne Carre spillway from a flood stage Mississippi River. A mile wide or bigger this far down. That small bird caught and ate several crawfish, then tangled with a monster crawfish!
The biggest crawfish I have ever seen and I spent six months catching over a thousand pounds a day of crawfish seven days a week as a commercial fisherman! This thing is almost the same length as the bird's body. How can he get his mouth that far open? How can he fit that big of a crawfish in his crop?
Obviously not the snowy's first rodeo, he picked the crawfish up and shook it over and over and slammed it to the ground. He had stepped out of the water he was wading in and was on a small sandy beach. You shake it to the left, you shake it to the right, you slam it on the ground! I thought he was trying to kill the crawfish but when one of the huge pinchers fell off I understood the objective. It took another five minutes, the second claw was stubborn. I thought the egret would give up but he persisted. He finally got the other pincher off. Now to see the answer to the seventy-five cent question, could he possibly eat that crawfish?
He could. What's more, he went right back to fishing! I doubted his ability to fly as I had seen him eat five or six crawfish, one that I knew outweighed the bird by itself! He could fly easily as he demonstrated about ten minutes later. He hadn't dehorned the smaller crawfish but apparently he had a history with the monsters. They, or the snake, had enough room to move around in the crop to cause the bird grief. I'm sure the snake had room to manage to bite the bird from the inside!

They are doing well, but let’s not count our chickens before the fat lady sings.
Nice, but I think the expression is
"It's not over until the chicken crosses the road"
Wunnit two in the bush ain't worth sheeit?
I'm still in a wait-and-see mode when it comes to pool being saved. When the payouts rise to a level where pros can afford to travel to each and every event, even when they lose, then I'll bend the knee.
My allegience, though, goes to Barry Hearn because he's the one making it happen. Without Barry, there would be no Nineball tour by Matchroom.
Also, I'm keeping a close eye out on favortiism. The ranking systems needs to blossom more, of course, to be effective.

behind every successful woman there's the biggest sport promotion company in the world
Absolutely right! Growth is nice, but this is no time to declare any kind of victory. Our sport needs even more growth before the game's pros make real money and we surely can't declare victory of any sort until we get there.
As for Hearn versus Frazer, it's probably fair to say that the platform for growth is due to Barry, but development of that platform required a very ambitious and capable manager. That said, Barry's greatest ever contribution to pro pool is Emily Frazer, a tireless event manager and tour coordinator who has pro pool on a nice track, one with global inclusion at a level our sport has never seen before. My allegiance is to both of them, but executing the ambitious plan for pool is the responsibility of Emily, and she's doing a great job so far.
I think the ranking system is doing a pretty good job of sorting out the elite. The in-progress World Pool Masters, a sixteen-player event, was filled using the top 14 by ranking and 2 wild cards. It's hard to imagine a more elite field than that assembled.
Like you, I think the process is still evolving, and it must do so aided by the objectivity, clarity and fairness of Matchroom's management team.
There are things to be very encouraged about, but we've still got quite a way to go.

One good turn...gets most of the blanket.
Dood is deep as a New York minute.
That's right. We'll cross that bridge when we come to it. Then we'll burn it.
