Keith McCready will join Allison Fisher and Mark Wilson on Monday on their podcast "Legends of the Cue" to tell his life story. What question would you like to ask Keith about his career, his role in "The Color of Money", etc. We'll give you a shout-out if we use your question. Thanks!
 
I really enjoy watching Keith's matches. They are a breath of fresh air to see someone with more natural/personal/unique mechanics in this era of robotic clones. He is proof you can play to an extremely high level and not follow the "proper" playing form. I don't mean this as any kind of disparagement either, I genuinely love watching unorthodox players that can play to a high level. I wouldn't mind hearing about his unorthodox style and how he came up with it.

I'd definitely like to hear his story, stories of things he saw and other players of that era. I don't know of anything specific I'd ask but I'm looking forward to the podcast.
 
Great person to interview- legendary player with personality!

Here are a few questions I’d like him to answer:

1. At what age did you first start playing pool? Did you have a high level of natural ability from the beginning?

2. The sidearm cueing technique is quite unique. How and why did you develop that technique/stance?

3. Who is the toughest player you ever competed against? How did you fare against this player overall?

4. Do you still play pool? How often do you play? Do you still enter tournaments?

5. Would you be interested in playing a challenge match vs Earl Strickland?

Thanks for extending this opportunity to us! Looking forward to the interview!
 
Ask him:

1) What pro player was your greatest influence?
2) Did you know Jay Swanson? What was he like?
3) Did you know Louie Roberts? What was he like?
4) Did you play at the rack in Detroit in its heyday and do you have any stories?
 
I would like to know how he feels about commentating:

1) Has he ever been a commentator for pro matches?
2) If not, why hasn't he and would he consider doing any (since it happens in. all sports)?
 
Just let him talk without cutting him off. I’ve watched a few interviews (not your) not just with him, but with others - and the podcasters have a bad habit of jumping in right when the guest is about to say something interesting or important.

The one I listened to about Mark Wilson was very well done and nobody talked over anyone.
