Scott Smith BCA HOF Industry Award

[Island Drive]

I think the pro game of pool, would of Never been portrayed, announced and delivered to the General Public or the players as was done by this man.

His all-around skills as a Player, businessman... He had and extremely diverse knowledge of the entire package/industry/players/room owners.

His speaking ability, pre match player intros and humor, made him exceptional.

Even when he would duplicate the pro boxing announcers' phrase before match play started ''let's get ready to rumble'' Scott was better by far, he KNEW about all of us, and some interesting comments would often accompany his/players/industries greatest moments.

I nominate him, with Jens great thought process about him being someone to ''recognize''.

BCA....HOF Industry Nominee.
None in most any pro sport had his delivery/and combination of industry skills to make match play/game more exciting.

I would think/hope he will be seriously considered by the voting committee, whoever that is. I believe he has to be officially nominated by someone. Fred Agnir on here could likely help you with that process.

Derby City should name something after him too.

I've chatted with some recently (not giving names) who only brought up the bad, but I don't roll that way when someone passes unless they are a pedophile or murderer.
To me it says allot more about ''that person'' who somehow thinks everyone should be ?????
Even when a marriage fails, there was good and great reasoning behind both decisions in the beginning to move forward.

Scott Smith was the man who inspired me to be an announcer at public events. He was the best!

I absolutely agree! Scott made positive contributions to the game and his direction/announcing made the event more enjoyable.
