Open Offer to Danny Harriman and John Schmidt from TAR
- Thread starter JCIN
- Start date
No hard feelings here. The word "hustler" is a pet peeve of mine and I took it the wrong way.
The one thing that I know is that after reading 23 pages of the thread that there is a lot of interest in this match happening. I was able to watch the 2nd match at Side Pockets live and it was great pool and drama. I hope all 3 parties can figure out a way to get this done. There have been bridges burned by all parties involved. Bridges can be rebuilt.
This can be a win win situation for all involved. You can't recreate the history of the 1st 2 matches and the drama of trying to set up a 3rd. Justin is a business man and knows that a 3rd match up will have appeal. He is taking a chance by guaranteeing a 6000 purse and expenses. But it's a calculated risk.
The name calling and passion by other posters is just because everyone wants to see this match. As far as Danny wanting a larger guarantee, it's called negotiations. No big deal, it happens everyday in the business world. If the numbers don't work then just walk away or get creative. How about giving the players a small percentage of any DVD sales and PPV after the nut has been paid? Or the players get a show up fee of (1000) and expenses paid and then they would get a percentage of sales? Maybe the winner would get a higher percentage etc. if they think Justin is going to make mounds of money (lol).
One other thing for Danny to consider is this. The exposure of the 3rd match could possible jump start his pool career again if that is something that would interest him. Hopefully, they can figure it out.

Crazy people saying crazy things. wow...
Why would I want to pay for crazy? Stuff's free 'round these parts.
you have reached the end of the internet....please refresh your screen or try again later.
I think Justin is ignoring us.

Justin's trying to think of a name for this one, related to a recent challenge of this nature... "Battle of the Beetles"? Hmm... no, it doesn't work on your end...

Thats the way to go. Two az members going at it on live stream. Doesn't have to be for all that money either. How about prestige ,kinda like the first Rocky movie, give the underdog a chance........ and then i woke up.
Ummm....not really. Just cause you don't see him often doesn't mean he misses much. He ran 180 on me not long ago (1 shot at a time, wasn't even trying) and won something like 20 straight games of 10-ball at a regional tour event.
I think if they played an all-around, Strickland would be an underdog....even now. Sigel doesn't have that "quit-stroke" in him like Strickland has. Sigel is a far smarter player... he'd prob have Earl talking to himself.
