baby Arm

Baby arm I hate to admit it, but I would also like to see Mckauley Culkin shoot some 9 ball....You one creative guy with some great ideas

 

[BackPocket9Ball]

Is Artie playing again? If so, where??

He'll be there for his One Pocket Hall of Fame induction so it would be cool if he brought his cue with him and made a match with Efren.

He thought he had the nuts when he played golf against Shannon, Coltrain, and myself. $1450 later him and his partner left without paying. He is a piece of shit.

I've played with Shannon and he plays about like I do. Did your shoulders get sore?

It's kind of fun posting under an alias and taking potshots at pro players, isn't it, The Baby's Arm? I find your humor distasteful, mean-spirited, and purposefully derogatory, and I think the only POS on this thread is you.

Shannon, Coltrain, and yourself? Just who is "The Baby's Arm"? You like to throw those names out there; yet, you refrain from providing your own. Why not give the readers of this forum the opportunity to respond to you, whoever you are, as opposed to your made-up forum identity?

FWIW Baby's Arm has posted his identity in the past. His name is Tommy Welborn from Cornelia, Ga. Therefore, he is not really posting anonymously since he has given his identity in past threads...

Thank you for the response, JDB.

I used to enjoying reading each and every thread on AzBilliards Discussion Forum.

Today, there are quite a few sub-forum categories, and I'd venture to guess that I don't read 50 percent of the daily posts. Maybe I'm a slow reader.

I do remember a time when I couldn't wait to pull up this forum and catch up on all of the pool happenings, i.e., tournament dates, on-the-road reports, updates.

The AzB Discussion Forum members are growing in number. I especially enjoy reading the insights of pool folk around the world. I have only been reading pool-related forums for, maybe, 3 years, and it goes without saying that Internet forums, chatrooms, bulletin boards, whatever the topic, by their very nature can bring out the worst in some.

Maybe it's me and I've acquired FAS [forum anxiety syndrome]. Opinions and friendly debate is one thing, but when the threads/posts turn into a breeding ground for [fill in the blank], the atmosphere sucks for a pool enthusiast like me, and I don't have it in me anymore to wade through the thick of it.

Hi JAM,

I just recently started "hanging out" in here and I hear you on the tackiness of some of the posts but I think that it somewhat comes with the territory. I guess we just learn to recognize who's posts to look for and who's to avoid. Anyway, I appreciate your insight and enjoy reading your posts.

BTW. Since this is a thread about match-ups, I wouldn't mind drawing Keith in the 9-Ball event for old time sake . I don't know if he remembers me or not but hello from me anyway!

 

[OldHasBeen]

Thats what I do

Hi JAM,I guess we just learn to recognize who's posts to look for and who's to avoid.

I just look at the first post of many threads and if I see it is inflamitory, stupid, argumentitive or by someone who is all of the above - I just never go back to that thread. I have learned that is the only way to save time and frustration - JAM, as good as you are (and me too I hope) we will never be able to fix stupid. Hang in there - or they win. And we might as well be at RSB.

TY & GL

HOLD ON TO YOUR HATS

LOL. Earl and Keith have faced each other numerous times on the American tournament trail, long before I ever met them. The first time I saw the two veterans match up in a tournament was in Rochester, NY at a Joss Tour event, maybe about 3 years ago. All of the top players came to compete, to include Alex Pagulayan, The Russian, Santos, Danny Hewitt, Charlie Williams, Mika Immonen, Dennis Hatch, just to name a few that I can remember at the time of this writing. Keith and Earl rose to the top of the charts, and you couldn't have asked for a better finals.

Story on AzBilliards Main Page: http://azbilliards.com/2000storya.cfm?storynum=799

At the beginning of the set, Earl marched in towing his three cue cases, full of weapons of mass destruction, and he was wearing that game face, serious and ready to do battle.

It was standing room only, and nobody knew what was about to unfold. As the match progressed, the two of them played topnotch pool, much to the delight of a full house of onlookers. Keith genuinely admires Earl Strickland as a fellow professional, but most importantly, they are good friends, and the two of them had a very relaxed demeanor in this finals match. Earl has a great sense of humor, and they put on a colorful performance, trading quips and chuckling between shots.

The match went to the infamous hill-hill, with Keith breaking. He made a couple balls on the break, an oddity in itself with Keith's 9-ball game, but before all of the balls came to a rest, the cue-ball got knocked in the side pocket and scratched. Earl then had ball in hand and never looked back, and thus, he won the whole shebang. It was a very fun time, one that I will always remember.

I've responded to this a milliion times. My name is Tommy Welborn. I've played golf and hung out with almost everyone that can play. I don't take cheap shots at people. I only respond to threads with factual info. that has taken place in front of my eyes.

To take this a step further, I've posted a few times with purely comical content. I can't help it if some of you have no sense of humor or don't really know each player and the underlying reasoning for the content of the post. I have also made some posts responding to others' questioning of dumps or other imperfections. I will say it like this, if someone posts a topic on something (pool related, or otherwise), and then mentions some specific players' name that I have personally had dealings with, then I believe I have the right to respond to that post. This being said, if the content of my truthful post offends anyone then so be it.

I do happen to know one of the players you posted about, in which you edited it in its original form. It was insulting and derogatory in nature.

The content of your "truthful post" is offensive to me, and I replied in kind.

After reviewing the posts you have written on AzBilliards Discussion Forum to date, there is a recurring theme of sarcasism and one-sided recountings of incidents.

Welcome to the forum. Your contributions may provide entertainment for others.
