It's homosucual, and if Marissa was a whore she would probably still be with her man.

Now I am really confused. So you aren't her boyfriend anymore because she wouldn't put out....?

This is getting really really good (or bad I guess)! Timberly won this thing ... Now can everybody just get along? Also, let's leave rackmsuckr out of this. One IPT apologist(SM) is enough, although I suspect that Timberly could take them both! JMOICBW (but probably not)...............Marc

I wouldn't exactly call myself an apologist. I never made apologies for the IPT. The worst I can be called is a sympathizer maybe, because I chose to believe the best. :o

An apologist isn't someone who apologizes. An apologist is someone who tries to reconcile conflicts between "the party line" and reality, using dodgy rhetorical devices to obfuscate difficult facts. To wit:

wikipedia said:
Today the term "apologist" is colloquially applied in a general manner to include groups and individuals systematically promoting causes, justifying orthodoxies, or denying certain events, even of crimes. Apologists have been characterized as being deceptive, or "whitewashing" their cause, primarily through omission of negative facts (selective perception) and exaggeration of positive ones, techniques of classical rhetoric. When used in this context, the term often has a pejorative meaning. The neutralized substitution of "spokesperson" for "apologist" in conversation conveys much the same sense of "partisan presenter with a weighted agenda," with less rhetorical freight.

I'm not necessarily saying the shoe fits, but if it does, wear it.
 
Huh ?

She's in CHI and he's in GEORGIA...what's he gonna do, FED EX it?:confused:


WAIT...there's an arbiter in his home state that probably has much more hands on experience--probably the most painless and economical way to resolve the issue;)
 
Well... 12 pages into this thread, I feel it necessary that I finally give my OFFICIAL IPT statement (even though I"m not half as important as Marissa, Timberly or Eydie). So... here goes....

AHEM....





It's over.

You can go home now.

Thank you, very much.

Um, wasn't the IPT declared dead last week? The IPT appears to be very much alive but hiding in a weakened condition. It seems as though the drama still has a lot of play in it. I would not be surprised at this point if it continues into next year with the hope on hope on hope scene. Other than the 3 milion owed the players couldn't have done anything other than accept the IPT's dictates anyway. The 3 million only gives the players something to sue for should they choose to.

As for the other, well that remains to be further illuminated as well.

Not to be totally flippant but so far the IPT model has kept us at this lemonade stand for quite a while. And Doug is doing a brisk trade in popcorn.

Until the IPT is gone from the internet and television, it's not over is my view.

And Mrs. Romano, please don't emulate the Trudeau format of announcements about announcements. I'll subscribe to your IPT blog if you'll just come out with it!!! :-)

Well said. I'm exhausted with it too.

I guess the funny part of the story was Niels was so proud of his name the Dyke from the fable that my mom told and that the kid was a hero in Holland. So we had been calling him The Dyke for a long time and one day we were on the computer at a friends house and a picture of two girls were kissing on it and it referred to them as dykes. Thats when Niels got pissed because he realized all this time we were calling him a lesbian. He was mad from a few days but then was okay with us calling him The Dyke still.

I've met Kat a couple of times and I really like her and think they make a great couple.

My friends over here thing Nick and I look alike and refer to us as brothers.

I was very happy for Alex for winning the Europeans as well and I was happy to see Rico on the IPT because for a while there I thought he quit the game.

Nice talking to you and if possible as Niels about the story as he could tell it to you a little better.

I will ask Niels about the story. In fact he is sort of a lesbian because he likes women.... so i if was him i would not be offended:p

I'm being asked by several people for my opinion or any specifics that I might be able to disclose regarding the IPT.

Yes, Deno is a good friend of mine, but we rarely discuss business. I will say that any misshapenness are not faulted to him. He has been involved in billiards for many years and has numerous friends and connections in the industry; he would not sabotage or betray that for any person.

This is a new and unprecedented venture for the pool world, so of course there are going to be unexpected setbacks. I know everyone has questions, including why Deno hasn't been posting on the messageboard or why he hasn't acknowledged some of your inquiries, but keep in mind that as an officer of the company, he is under a legal obligation not to discuss particular facets until a specific date and time.

Remember that most of have been hopeful in seeing this endeavour a success from the beginning, and I don't yet see it as a failure.
PLease tell Deno that we are all 100% behind him in his efforts to make the IPT the Great success we all know it will be.
But the players need to be paid real soon or there is not much hope.
