Put a Sock in it, Bernie

[sjm]

Although I have met you and like you, Bernie.......

Put a sock in it. On the subject of pool organizations other than the IPT, here's what you had to say on February 12 of this year.

i'm glad mr. truedue is trying to control the pool world, and it wouldn't be such a bad thing if all the other tours go away. they had their chance, and they FAILED read my type they FAILED!!!!!!

Your cold, blanket rejection and mockery of all pool organizations other than the IPT continues to rank as one of the worst posts in this forum's history. Now that pro pool has rejected you with that very same kind of insenstivity and lack of respect, you can no longer tolerate the kind of abuse that you once practicied.

While I hope that you and all the others owed money by the IPT are paid, I'd have to say that, in view of your all-encompassing rejection of pro pool and of those who have run the organizations that have added so much to it over the years, I am probably less concerned about moneys due you than the moneys due the other 199 that are owed money from IPT Reno.

Greg Sullivan / Diamond Billiards has been trying his heart out to do what he can.

Pool has always had a lot of good people and good organizations pouring their hearts and money into the sport's success. If you've now come to realize and appreciate them, more power to you, Bernie. If not, you need to give it some more thought.

I share in your hopes for the future of our sport.
