JS if I had a room I would seriously consider doing something with you, I have seen you talk to fans, autograph seekers, etc and you have a lot of chrisma and charm not like your looking for a edge but genunely being nice and making your fans happy. you look good in pictures etc.
Your chrisma and charm isnt there when you try and match up(sometimes and i'm not refering to Danny but other times), and I dont know why probably adrenlin. You get more with sugar than vinigar(I'm not knocking you buddy-its your style) your passion is great,but your temper gets a little up there. Like I said its not a knock just a observation, and that dont matter when your repping a pool room anyways,
I might have one idea for you, I need to make a call tomarrow, would a 3 month thing be ok for you??? Let me make the call and if they like the plan I will give you a call and then ya'll can sort it out I'm not looking to make a penny, I'm trying to help you and someone else, because I know some circumstances that could benefit both sides.
I have known JS for just under 3 years and If any pool room is looking for a house pro, or representative as a businessman I 100% vouch for John, I have spoke to him on the phone about business several times about indepth things and he is smart, and with his knowlege isnt going to waste any room owners $$$$, he knows what to do with the fans to bring more value to the room than he is being compensated for, that insures a long term relationship for everyone, if anyone who is seriously considering doing biz with JS have any questions I'm at 702-241-8000-but please dont call me unless you really have something-thats all I ask, im a busy guy. And no I'm not his agent or best friend(were friends who talk every 2-3 months) etc, I'm just being honest and helpful to all parties concerned(except me) and Its only a feew minutes of my time.

I know, at one time, John mentioned to us that he has investments and pool was just a business. Why not just buy a room, or open one of his own?
What kind of radar do you have to still have a driver's license?![]()
hopefully some of you know me ,if not i understand.
John, surely geography and what an area offers is key criteria in your decision. NC offers so much. Beautiful coast and beautiful mountains. All kinds of terrain for dirtin' it. Fabulous golf, endlessly fabulous in fact. Great fresh and salt water fishing. Little traffic, low crime. 4 seasons, with a tame winter. Low cost of living. Lots of pool halls that would sell their soul to have you slap your shingle on their door. Tons of strong players for you to work with and play.
If you have interest for more info, feel free to send me a pm.
Best of luck moving forward!

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that some of the toughest golf courses I have ever seen are here in Arizona.
He's right. You'd be hard pressed to find a tougher crowd of pool culprits. Johnny said once, "You could win the US Open before winning this one." Referring to the local weekly tourney, A and B player tourney. NC has long been the breeding ground and support system for GREAT players. Earl, Whimpy, Johnny (lived here for a while), Coltrain, BJ, Sam Monday, Keith Bennett, Abernathy, Sparky Ferrell, Scott Lewis, Tony Watson, Charlie Brinson, Mike Fuller, Harold Dollar, Ottis Moore, ahh hell, my hand is getting tired.
The mountains to the ocean thing is great. Seasons are great. Not terrible cost of living. Pinehurst and Southern Pines, Grove Park, are all known golf areas. I'm not a golfer.
I'd love to spar with ya on a regular basis.
Could do worse...
Rick i suck at golf unfortuantely, I hit mid to low 90's on a good day.
I still see brackets covering Arizona every day. Me or you would be pulled over a block from our parking spot. We were lucky to make the tournament that day.If you miss the traffic at the Hoover Dam (off hours) and zzzzing it between the Dam and Kingman...it's doable.
Watch Wikeup!!
(AND make sure you don't have a license plate bracket obstructing your plate!) Isn't that right.....
Good luck John!!
