LOL, actually I was just scrolling through the TV guide and saw her name.

OCC have built a lot better looking bikes than that. In fact I think it's the worst one I've seen them build. They could of had nice leather cue cases for the rear, crossed cuesticks for a sissy-bar, and a lot of other things pool related. Johnnyt

 

[Njhustler1]

i missed the beginning of the episode. who commissioned them to build the bike? jeanette? or did the APA request it as a gift for her? or something else?

 

[Scott Lee]

The bike was commissioned by the guys that own Liquidwick Cues. That should tell you something. If they can't design a pool cue that works, how are they gonna design a chopper that has much pool-related to it? JMHO

If you watch closely you will see the RKC in the background .

I think rather then bashing a supporter like Liquidwick Cues,be glad pool got some air time.J.Lee could be the face of pool to get the exposer it needs to get bigger sponcer's.Who else has had this quality of air time in the last 20 years.

 

[zy112]

I didn't think it was that bad. Hard to compare to some of the bikes they've built though

 

[Scott Lee]

NoBull9...You're absolutely correct...and my apologies! I have yet to see Liquidwick Cues do anything of note within the industry (like sponsor a tournament or something). Yes, they do sponsor JL (one of several, most who are very high profile), but she will get 100x the exposure on tv, being in the APA ads, imo. JL is no stranger to tv, and knows the 'ins and outs' as well as just about anybody in the biz! She's articulate, beautiful, talented, a smart cookie, and worth every dime that she's making from the billiards industry. I would only hope that some other players (male and female) figure out how to crack that barrier!

Scott I wasn't trying to take a shot at you,Everyone involved with pool has its place and people like your self are what keep it going.I'm just a long time supporter that works in billiard industrie for years.And for once I'd like to see pool get a break.

I recorded the episode to watch when I get home. I am a fan of the show but, ever since Paul Jr. and Mikey left, all their bikes are just nice bikes with cool paint jobs. Just like all the other bikes out there, nothing special like Jr. used to do, jmo. Met them twice in Myrtle Beach and they are cool guys, just miss the unique bikes from before. Ron

 

[troyboy30]

that was one ugly ass bike. There bikes where so much better with jr designing them. Now they are all cookie cutter with nothing custom

I watched last night only because of this thread. OCC is too Dramatic for my taste. I could care less if Mickie shaves off his beard etc.

I thought Jeanette did a great job and enjoyed her short part in the show.

 

[NewStroke]

Maybe this POS was made as a tribute to "9 ball the movie", shell drive up up the red carpet with 4 guys holding the bike upright. :grin:
