My team captain's birthday falls on December 23rd.
Essentially he's entitled to twice the gifts that normal people are accustomed to as he should receive 1 set of gifts for Christmas and a separate set for his birthday. This being said, he regularly gets nothing, but he doesn't complain, but in fact spreads nothing but holiday cheer. I'd be the grinch if I were him.
To top it all off, he buys each of his teammates a gift annually, last year he gave me a cuetec pocket chalker!
I cannot afford to get him anything myself this year as I recently had to move and it cost me an arm and a leg.
He's the nicest individual, he used to play on a predator sneaky, but had to sell it because he had paid for a teammate's dues and that teammate skipped town on him leaving him without repaying his debt.
I read the forum post about the girl Jenny that people are assisting, and while I think it's absolutely fantastic, I have to wonder if it's because she's female that the willingness to help was so abundant.
This guy just gives and gives. He literally puts in more time, effort, and money than he can afford, he gives rides to anyone that needs it, even from the opposing team, I cannot stress how important he is locally to a lot of players.
He is a 5, but I think if he had better equipment that he'd be a 7. He plays on the straightest bar cue he can find. It would be an amazing act of generosity and I know it would completely make his holiday season.
You guys were awesome to offer things willingly to a female that doesn't really know much about pool, does it change that he knows how to play and that he's a guy? He's more deserving in my opinion, but I understand I'm obviously biased, but he's awesome. Hopefully some of the same people or the offers that weren't realized, will help out here as well. Thank you so much for reading and for your holiday cheer. Happy holidays and warm wishes to all of you.
The guy just gives and gives and never gets anything in return. He literally put in more time,effort and money than he can afford. He gives rides to anyone who needs it. He gives us gifts every year. He regularly gets nothing but doesn't complain. I would be the grinch if I were him. (out of your own mouth). Now take a good hard look at this what you are saying.I TELL YOU WHAT THIS GUYS REALLY NEEDS MORE THAN ANYTHING IS A NEW SET OF FRIENDS AND GET RID OF YOU BUNCH OF DAMN DEADBEATS AND JOIN A DIFFERENT TEAM !!! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!!!
