How about it, Cliff Joyner?

Oh excuse me, one legend calling out another legend on AZbilliards is nonsense. This thread shows what azbilliards was once was and what it has become.

It would of been legendary had the match ever occurred, and how does a match that didn't happen 13-years ago reflect what AZ has become.
There are quite a few vintage matches to talk about that actually happened.
What about all of the matches that didn't happen last year?
As far as AZ Billiards then and now, 13-years ago we had a men's tour.

It is always good though to see the old threads from way back when, to reminds us
about the good ole days, back when guests could post.
Imagine if they could do that now.
 
I'm kinda cnew to az and I don't understandwhat we are talking about
what was Az before?

Is Keiths post a reminder of what was once good?

I know its the first post I have seen of it's kind and I
enjoy seeing something from him

I would like to hear a few stories and look at some videos of his stroke

The original post is 13 years old. Someone responded to this 13 year old thread and bumped it to the top of the forum. Look at the dates at the top of the posts at the beginning of this thread.
 
Just a little reminder ablut how well the top players ay :eek :
Don't know how cliff Joyner plays now compared to when this story took place. It was around '98 or '99 or so and Cliff was in South Carolina and called Jack & Jills looking for Maxi ( skinny Max from Baltimore ) to play some. Cliff offered 10-6 and wanted to bet HIGH. I honestly don't really remember anyone spotting Max in one pocket but DEFINITELY never a big spot like that. Max had all of his own action but Cliff said his backers would cover any and all side action too so we couldn't get our money in fast enough. As soon as game was confirmed Cliff and his peeps were on the road headed to Jack & Jills. They rolled up in two packed S class Mercedes around 3 am and it was on. Cliff absolutely DESTROYED Max! None of us had ever seen that happen before. I remember Jeremy Jones beat him playing nine ball but that was a battle. It took Cliff like 3 hours or so to get all the cash and back on the road to Carolina. My point is this; and Jenny probably would know better than me, but at that time I think Max probably played even one hole with Keith and Max may have even been the favorite ( in one hole only ).
 
now that we all know that, i guess there is no need for the guys to play

would your semi disclaimer that you don't know etc preclude you from making a friendly $5000
wager on Cliff if the game were scheduled today and played soon or can we assume that your detective services are for informational purposes only?

just askin

If Cliff is winning and playing at Mike Wong's speed, then the match is still going on.
 
even from those two posts you can tell Keith was one of the true personalities of pool. Its a real shame hes not active anymore. Sing a song...lol that was great

Dave, are you the same same Dave Uwate that attended UC Berkeley back in the late 80s early 90s?

Yes that would be me. Cal 89 grad.

I was a grateful dead following, green grass and high tide hippie type yes. Does that get me the wild 8? I might even wear pachouli if I can get the 7.

89? You're a young-in, too young to be a true hippie.

My father in law is a Cal Bear and his father was too. His daughter (my wife) is USC, so naturally we have nice family gatherings as long as sports aren't mentioned. Or politics. They are both as conservative as could be.
 
I feel old enough that I tell people I was there when they domesticated the dog and discovered fire.

No hippie long hair though, then or now. For no other reason than long hair gets in my eyes when I play pool :-)

I love patchouli. :D
 
When this thread was made, it was before AzBilliards software updated to the new forum format. At that time, Cliff Joyner was posting here as a member.

We used to run into Cliff on the road. Since I have been with Keith, they played two times for the cheese, with Keith getting spotted. One time, Cliff was using a warped stick, a borrowed stick, and he just couldn't get any headway.
