Already got the URL…I'm gonna own the rights to "fatboy approved" after that $1 WSOP bet comes through
This post is Dead Money Approved.I’m glad you asked!
I’ve been giving that lots of thought. Somewhere along the way watching a stream maybe 4-5-6 years ago I said “Fatboy Approved” in a joking sense in the context of the stream. It kinda sounded cool to me(not because I’m Fatboy) but because it seemed like a new idea in pool. Like the JD Powers award or Michelin Star rating system for fine dining.
Pool needs something new I thought, so why not a stamp of approval? I’m not looking to make $ from it-that’s not the intent. And honestly what does my opinion count? Not much. But I been around a long time and I do have a bit of credibility. Of course there are people who hate me and everything I say or do is wrong. But I’ve never gave anyone a bum steer or double steer.
I thought about starting a thread about this idea since I jumped back after a 7 year AZB vacation. But I just didn’t, and here we are.
I think it would be kinda cool to put the “Fatboy Approved” seal of approval on some good stuff in pool. Not everyone or everything but good things. And again not for compensation to me. If anything if it could make $ I’d give it 100% to some forms of kids pool or youth programs. Never for my own gain or benefit what so ever. It would be for the future of pool and for fun only.
I’m open to suggestions, support(not money), ideas, is this a viable idea? I’d make it legit and be certain that the other people in pool accept it and have it be credible. Not a clown show or mockery. A real thing.
I love pool my whole life, know more people than I can count in the pool world. Some famous, infamous, wanted by the law, good, bad and even more people know me. If we can make use of that-I’m all for it. I want what’s best for pool and have a good time doing it.
congrats on the 70” Tv those are wonderful.

How did you know I keep my Zacapa in the kitchen?
It was on the screen. I actually took a screenshot but it looked horrible.
I’m out of Ferraris at the moment. Rolls or Lambos
That’s the match but I just skimmed through and didn’t see it either. The match went 9-9 with Tony dogging his out ball but Shane making a mistake and letting Tony get another crack at it.
I will look and see if it’s still cue’d up in my TV tomorrow morning.
maybe I was just seeing things…
Fatboy..now you need to assemble a panel of experts.
That’s a brilliant idea. There’s lots of experts to choose from in pool-just ask them
j/kThere really is a huge wealth of pool knowledge out there, some sadly have passed. Some are still around. Guys who dedicated decades of their time to pool in many different ways. Pat Fleming is one who comes to mind. He knows so much and has done so much for pool. Freddy the Beard sure knew a lot. Jay as well.
There’s so much content on here, between the nonsense it’s worth digging through to read and learn about pool as well. I won’t comment on aiming systems……

That's like a dentist that won't comment on toothpaste.
40 days and 40 nights the CTE'rs slogged through the desert, nary a drop of water, but the Stanites persevered it all to get the coveted 'Fatboy Approved' bestowed upon them. And all for.....................no comment. WTF?
