On Chuck Bobbitt...

Jam, Looking forward to you and Keith coming out. I'll buy you both dinner and a couple of drinks. I played the little guy in a partners game in about 1973? or so. I think it was Linbrook Billiards or Westminster Billiards. We broke even, but this was way before he really got good.

$.02 worth

Of course Jay and maybe a couple of other people who have posted in this thread, actually have sufficient true knowledge and facts of many of the details. Other than that, most of us (myself included), do know enough about what transpired to have anything other than just another opinion, lacking in substance...

This matter is ultimately between Jay, the UPA and the unpaid players, along with Chuck and any affiliates (public or silent). Jay is already taking the matter to the proper authorities, whereby it'll be handled accordingly.

At this point, it appears meaningless to spew words on the topic, and fuel the gossip fire, unless you are actually in a position to do something and will act or are acting accordingly. It's often too easy to be self righteous from the sidelines or far far away in threads like these.

Just my $.02 worth...
P.S. You know, it's been at $.02 for quite a long time. I think adjusting for inflation my opinion is at least $2.00 worth by now.

JAM-

And you said I was a history professor in Wisconsin.

At least you are now admitting that you use the term 'me and mine'. Sorry I am not from the South. They say caddywhampus (sp?) down there too but I have no idea what that means or how to use it in every day sentences either.

If Keith & Louie were really close friends, then Keith will know of the one true friend that Louie had for many years. He should only need one guess. That is how I met Louie, knew Louie, even talked to him 2 hours before he died. You can stretch it anyway that gives you comfort. Yes, Louie was bad with money - that is the first thing that I was warned about. Why - because others respected me. Post the article anytime (I wish I saved it) & let's take a vote to see if the story of selling the cue to multiple backers had any bearing on that 9 ball should be two shot roll out. Just a matter of a writer not looking before leaping. There was no ill will towards Keith. Hell, I even helped you by telling Dean DeForest that Keith wanted to talk to him. If I had such hatred for Keith as you seem to think, then why would I care to help him in any way?

More dribble and back-peddling.

yes, Chuck Bobbitt. Any word on whether he's paid the money he owes yet? Jay?


Nada, nothing, zilch and zero! I'm now finding out about more bad checks he wrote in conjunction with the event. Diamond got stuck with a couple too.

I spoke with Jay earlier today and he is very busy dealing with this situation. It's good to see someone out there that believes in integrity and taking care of what needs to be taken care of - I admire his dedication to our game!

There should be many more like Jay, working 24/7 for pool and the players.

I hope he manage to put enough pressure on Chuck so there will be a solution that everyone can be happy with. I think the players will accept some $ each month, as long as they get them in the end.

Actually in other threads we have adjusted .02 to .04 for inflation. :D

unbelievable, thanks for taking the time to respond. I hope all of you guys get the money that is owed and the wrong doer/doers get what is coming to them. From the amount of money that was taken in from entry fees, admission fees, etc... It sounds like there is something more that was going on here. I hope Im wrong but if the shoe fits...

It's like a nightmare isn't it? Keeps getting worse and worse.

Jay this truly sucks! Let me know if there is anything I can do for you here locally.

The last time you posted directly to me was below:

JAM:
Oblivious to the fact that she's involved in a dispute in nearly every thread she posts in.
<whistles nonchalantly>
 
JAM, please don't mention my name in threads that I'm not involved in and have stated no opinion on.

You are a bitter and twisted old women, who attacks anyone who has a different opinion to you.

You are one of the main reasons I don't post on this forum much anymore, not because of your ridiculous logic or racist remarks. But because you ruin thread after thread by attacking innocent forum members and taking threads off topic.

This is another important issue in pool, I've just read the thread from start to finish and YOU ruined it, nobody else just YOU JAM.

For the record in about 4 years JAM is the only person from memory to give me -ve rep, 3 times lol!

Ironically it was exactly the same wording as she gave watchez (spelling?)

I sure hope my life doesn't revolve around green and red dots when I'm 80 never mind 50!

As for the topic of this thread...

Been busy working all week so missed this, I saw Mika and a few other players comment on how pleased they were with there results on facebook. How gutted they must be to hear this news.

Most of us on here actually play pool and I'm sure can understand how much this must hurt, to play your heart out all week, finish high and get nothing for your efforts!

I don't know the man or the reasons but its all very sad...

just put her on ignore like the rest of have. Pretty soon she'll be starting fights and bickering with herself. It's obvious that she has no intentions of self reflection and is really oblivious to her actions so all that is left is just to ignore.
 
From my lil investigation on this matter, I am told that Chuck guaranteed the original hotel WITH A SIGNED CONTRACT that a certain # of rooms would be booked & he also agreed to pay for the space to be used for the tournament. In other posts, Jay has advised that he has always been able to negotiate the free space into any event that he held himself. Why Chuck didn't follow this business practice & set himself up to fail by signing such a contract is why this all went down hill. This was the need to change venues away from the hotel to the pool room.

Jay, did you hear the same or is this not true?

I knew you'd chime in. Just a matter of time.

You never miss an opportunity to target me.

BTW, I may be bitter and twisted and old, but I am only one woman.

JAM said:
I'm waiting for TheOne to join the party.

BTW, what did you say your name was again?

JAM

Why do you mention TheOne? Yet again you have to fan the flames when he hasn't even posted in the thread. It's what you do.

I didn't post my name in this thread and there is no point in doing so. It makes absolutely no difference to you. I don't know your name nor care, either. Apparently you know TheOne's name, Watchez's name, Blackjack's name, but it doesn't stop you from slinging mud at them does it? Please explain to me what would change between us if I posted my name?

You're oblivious to your own self-creating drama, or you are doing it on purpose. I don't care, but I give up trying to make nice with you. Don't ask me for anything, as you won't get it.

You mean after you called me out? get a life JAM.

You only live once there's a whole world out there away from those green dots!

You are wrong, Shinobi. TheOne targets me every chance he gets. Others on this forum have pointed it out, and so it is not just my opinion, but thanks for your input.

I am just curious, Shinobi. If you have reason to keep your identity private, then that is your prerogative.

It does make it easy to lash out and attack me, doesn't it?

Why would I ask you, somebody whose name I do not know, for anything? LOL! :D

You sure are good at retorts to me on this thread. How becoming, you doing the exact same thing you accuse me of.

I am a cancer, Craig. I know there is a life out there. I intend on living it to the fullest.

Chime in? He didn't chime in. You called him out and he replied.

I think I'll go start a thread called "JAM is attacking me!" and then when she posts in the thread I'll write "Aha, I knew you'd post! Stop following me!" :rolleyes:

I can see why everyone has suggested putting you on ignore.

I apologize to everyone for my part in hijacking this thread. Hopefully it can get back on track.

I don't accept your apology. You are doing the exact thing you accuse me of.

And FWIW, TheOne was already posting when I made my post. How do I know that? I know.

The ignore feature is great. I really do wish you would put me on ignore. It would make my posting experience much more enjoyable on AzBilliards.
