Fisher vs Corr: Closer than you think

[LastTwo]

Hello,

lasttwo the crowd is coached and instructed to applaud. If you want pool to become a spectator event the crowd should be able to cheer for who and what they please.

Pool will never be a spectator event as long as the players pay more entry fees than the spectators. With no outside prize money coming in to make things comfortable for the players then the players get priority and the fans have no chance. Even you suggest in your post that the fans don't count and it assumes every spectator knows the game. With old fashion thinking like that how can pool expect millions of people who don't know the game to watch it.

Note in the attached photo of Karen and Line two of the best women players in the world the empty seats.

Cheers,

Ya, whatever. Why do you always post a picture of Karen? She plays great, but she looks like a librarian. You are doing the same thing as posting a picture of everyone's local librarian. What is the point? There is no point.

Anyways, I was making a point that the audience claps at anything. Efren draws the CB back 6 inches, roaring applause. Someone scratches, you hear people shouting, then "ooohs" and applause at the same time. It's like people are saying, "Holy crap! The cueball WENT IN THE HOLE!! Are you sure? Yes, and it's still there. He MAY reach for it and take it out! Really? Oooooooooh *applause*"

Gremlin, are you telling me you've never thought to yourself, "Why in the hell is everyone clapping?" Don't you think that most poolplayers subconciously roll their eyes when they make a simple elementary shot, and suddenly the room erupts with thunderous applause? If I were to make a simple stop shot at a tournament, and suddenly all the spectators start applausing and shouting, saying "Way to go! You did it!" etc, when I haven't even ran out the rack yet, that's just plain dumb.

sarah, i am giving credit where credit is due. karen corr is an excellent player. she wouldn't be #2 in the world, if she wasn't excellent. what i'm saying is this, fisher compared to corr is a much better shotmaker. fisher also has a much better mental attitude towards cuesports in general. karen corr when in the chair, is OVERconcerned, OVERfocused OVERthinking OVERbreathing. she is making herself CRAZY! allison senses this, and eats her up like a great white shark, sensing a 9 year old girl bleeding in the water. karen corr is excellent, and when she is on, and her position is working, she is magnificent. but there is a reason why allison is #1. because she is a selfish only child, who is used to getting her way!, she wants to win, and no one shall stand in her way!

I know Freud was Jewish but this is where the similarity ends.

Bernie, Bernie, Bernie. When did you get your degree in Freudian analysis. Hahaha! I am rolling on the floor peeing in my PJ's. Your conclusions about Allison's psyche takes the prize for being the number one Hooplehead of the year award. Hey I thought you were majoring in Germanic Spartacism. Now Psychoanalysis!!!??? Jeannette, Helena, and Karen should be paying you for exposing their most dangerous foe's weak points. You are right you are the tobasco sauce. Too bad you keep putting it on stuff like milk toast or rice pudding. Hey keep them coming. Danke Schoen!!
