Predator 10 Ball tour stop - Spain

OK, I will paint a picture for you. You called Brendan a "daddy's boy". Name calling = insult. This has nothing to do with his skill. This, I assume, because he attends an excellent shool and has his family's support.

You know little about him but continue to talk negatively. Now your negative reputation matches your attitude.

Congratulations - that's the first negative rep I've ever given.

lol "i continue to talk negatively" when its like 3-4 posts i'm defending myself. The only post where i would have been negative could be my first post, which is not if you read objectively.
Is daddy's boy an insult? Man you must be very touchy.
You have given me a bad reputation, good for you, clearly I'm not crying at the moment.

I wasn't too sure about this because I saw one one post that she was listed as a player at this event... Thanks for the info.

Cris will do great. She knows pool, has a great voice and manifests a positive presence wherever she goes.

Cris can do it all-Interviewer, commentator, presenter. She's got the whole package. Keep up the good work. I have previously enjoyed working with her at some other events. She is fun to be around.

Yes. Daddy's boy is an insult and you may or not have meant it as one. Sometimes we type things that we wouldn't normally say. It happens.

No, I am not touchy unless you try to get in my pocket.

You can make amends by editing your post and removing it from this thread. That would be a good start. If others see you doing the right thing maybe they will let up on you and do the right thing as well.

I have nothing against you. I'm half Italian so half of me likes you right away. Brendan is still a child - he just turned 14 - and he's playing in the World 10 ball championships and traveled 5,000 miles to do it.

It takes a lot of guts for a young man this age to accomplish what he has and to play pool with the pros on the world stage. Your constant references inferring he is spoiled or privledged and not worthy despite his accomplishments are - at best case - insensitive.

Perhaps you should just apologize for insuting Brendan and go on with your posting. A few good reps and you'll be back to green in no time - and I will be the first one. Plus I will tell an Italian joke.

i searched the word in an italian- english dictionary. The correspondent italian word is not a negative word, its more like a nice/funny word. The dictionary gave me that word which i wasn't aware is negative.
I think you have read my previous post and is like 3-4 posts i'm saying it wasn't my intention to be negative.

"My constant references" which was only on my first post. In good faith too.
I apologized in the previous posts.

Thank God for Brendon, Landon, Chuckie and a few others. At least we still have some young talent developing in America.

OK, almost apology accepted.

Here's my Italian joke - I heard it in Bari.

The guide says "Jesus must have been Italian".

We asked "why?"

He replied "his mother thought he was a god"

and he added:

"...and he thought she was a virgin".

Indeed, Jay. - I wish they would get some results posted in Spain. I would like to see how Corey H., Oscar, and Mike Sigel are doing.

I wonder if Sigel is getting back into the pro tounament play?

Chris

Ps. Can someone good rep "Slh " for me (above) - I can't do it and I can't stand seeing red.

All done. Now I'm going to Buffalo's to win that one pocket tournament. It looks like that took care of Slh's red. Just what Dr. Tate ordered.

Ciao!

Corey,

Can you update us on what's happening when you get a chance? Any match results would be appreciated. (Hope you make the final 16 so I can help plan a Brazil trip for you).

We heard that the pool tables are moved to the hotel and they plan on playing to the final 16, with the 16 being on a paid trip to Brazil.

The original venue was damaged beyond repair due to weather conditions.

The event has been restructured somw with a total of ten tables now being in the host hotel (8 downstairs & 2 upstairs).

Play is to have resumed at 7pm. I am scheduled to play in an hour from now (8:30p). At this point, I am not sure that the event is "on" the new schedule. I'll see when I get back downstairs.

Yes, the final 16 will be competing in Brazil later in the year for this title.

Some emergency event decisions, not easy, had to be made - and thye have been made competently. Karim Belhaj of Predator has been at the helm of this ship and is handling all of it in stride. He has the support of all of us here. Now, we are all trying to make the best of a less than ideal situation.

This is going to turn out great!

Wow - it sounds like they're doing everything they can to make it happen.

Good Luck, Corey - it would be really great if you and Oscar could make it to Brazil. We know you can do it.

Looks like Sigel won his first match 8-6. Crown City Corey has his under control!
 
Can anyone tell me where I could get a push on cue extension like the one stevie moore was using a couple of minutes ago.
