I do not see the value of having a pro player tag, if it is not given to players who are OBVIOUSLY pro. San Jose Dick deserves the tag.
It may not be a priority for you, so maybe you can manage to get the tag on there in the next month, but San Jose Dick deserves the tag.

Well, at the risk of being unpopular, which never worried me a bit, I come out in support of SJD. Too bad he was banned during the thread about unfair banning, or was that planned, inquiring paranoids ask.
I like the guy's posts for the most part. I don't think recounting his pool playing days means he is blowing his own horn, to me it's just interesting storytelling.
Nor do I think telling some factual statement about another player is a sign of envy. At worst, it is a form of woofing, a time honored pool tradition.
Whatever year it was that SJD beat UJ, he would have had been about 24 years younger than Puckett - a whole generation younger. Not that UJ needs any defending, may he rest in peace, because he was the kind of guy would have made friends even after losing, especially with someone much younger, just as SJD says happened.
To me, the people to be banned are those who use up needless space with huge sig lines or pics, and those who persist in quoting a huge comment just to reply with one word, or one or two sentences. Oh, and those who say f you and any other hate-filled comments.
The persistence of hate-filled comments of all sorts, and the needless wastage of vertical screen space so people have to page down forever just to read some comments, is a real drawback to enjoying AZB.
But still I had to post that female avatar, nice huh? Too bad I could not put the full size pic in here, it's a real two-part epic.

"it's easier to attract bees with honey, rather than vinegar" - and such is life.
Undoubtably if SJD would have sent a PM requesting a PRO BANNER he would have received one.
There's a saying that Larry Johns (then president of McDermott Cue Co.) said to me one time "it's easier to attract bees with honey, rather than vinegar" - and such is life.

Yes he did! (He started early)
Welcome back Mr. McMorran.

Dear Mr. Red Car,
Maybe if you spent your time concentrating on the things you post you won't have to worry about the things I post. Or not.
Yours truly,
ONB
CJ...You obviously missed this post ??? (#166) this thread !
I will refrain from any judgement on bank pool..I was never around where it was played, hence I had no interest in it !..I knew Bugs only by his strong reputation for the game !
I consider John Brumback a good friend, and every time we meet, we go round and round over banks vs one pocket..John and I would have a few beers and joke about it..Unfortunately, Freddy B. took it as a personal insult, that I did not care for bank pool !

John played under Bugs, and Eddie Taylor?
I guess John would be best suited to answer the first question.
The 2nd question was how you drew the conclusion that John played under Bugs, and Eddie Taylor?

CJ..You asked me to form an opinion, based on a hypothetical situation !...I did the best I could ! Yes, based
strictly on what I've seen (mostly on video's)..I feel John played a little under both Bug's and Eddy !..I did NOT say John played 'bad' one pocket ..I said he was lacking in experience, against those two guys...I might still pull for him to win !
SJD
PS..Please don't jeopardize my friendship with John, by pursuing this !..J/K, that won't happen ! (I hope)

Palmerfan,
I'm guessing you've never been more wrong in your life.
CJ and Freddy the Beard constantly call/called attention to themselves, did you ever "straighten them out"? I doubt it.
P.S. I liked Freddy and like SJD.
ONB
Bugs, did you see him play in his prime? Was it in Chicago or Detroit?
I'll take your word for it, John's too thick skinned to let opinions bother him anyway.
Have you seen Bugs and/or Eddie play on video, you mentioned you never met Eddie.
How did you know Bugs, did you see him play in his prime? Was it in Chicago or Detroit?

P.J., Cowboy Dennis, Shane Van Boening, and even SJD during his ban (when I signed on here I think.) I've been called everyone but Sybil

Almost forgot to ask; Since you think you are so perceptive why do you think PJ would've signed up here under an alias in Nov. 2013? Long before his ban I think. I don't really keep up on all the goings on here though.
Since you're so smart, please answer.

Enjoy your anonymous life.
We doubt if anyone really cares who you are, and also doubt if you'll ever come out of hiding behind an alias, pj.
Enjoy your anonymous life. :thumbup:

And I don't care who anyone on this forum is, including you.
Enjoy your anonymous life where you are only a "somebody" on a pool forum that nobody I know even knows about.

You are not paying attention AGAIN, CJ...I have stated several times, I HAVE met Eddie, but never met Bugs !..I have also clearly stated, I have never seen either one play "live" anywhere, in their prime, in Chicago, Detroit, or even Podunk, Arkansas !..Like most of us, my opinions are based on watching what few older video's are available....Though I may not be the best 1P player in the world, I do feel I am as capable as anyone alive, at judging 'skill levels' in one pocket, based almost strictly on their shot selection !
SJD
PS..What is your hourly fee for lessons ? I am going to have to start charging you a "brain picking" fee !

See how CJ is trying to take over another thread, by trying to discredit SJD's credentials.
Who cares CJ. Dick is a Hall of Famer. He didn't receive that Honor because the award committee couldn't find anyone else to give it to at the time.
Who cares of who Dick did and didn't play in his day. You were a traveling road player, along with your entourage, for protection. Did you blow into town and play anyone and everyone willy nilly? I am asking the last question in earnest, because I honestly don't know if you considered yourself a road player who would take on all comers, one and all, or you were selective in who you played, depending on Weight received or given.
Not jealous are you? Cause yer kinda acting like it. Yes, it is that obvious.

I have to go now and play in a real tournament
It's obvious you don't care, pj, I have to go now and play in a real tournament - enjoy your virtual pool game.

Not a bad idea. "Hall of Fame" player would certainly trump "Pro" player any day, all day.
