If this business goes on much longer pool might be very well received. I hear the NBA is
bracing for a likely at least 3 month hiatus, if they return at all and I’d expect the same for
the rest of the sports. Entertainment will be on its last leg in short order, in about a month
or two a pro tournament on ESPN or Fox Sports will be a welcome sight.
Pool has an advantage for this. There is very little physical contact, almost no breathing
on each other, and most of all you can do it and not lose much without an arena or
stadium full of people. You can point a video camera at a table, get a couple of old pros
or Al Michaels to do the play by play and there you have it. I suspect it would be a mostly
all American tournament, except for the few foreign players that live here that you would
have to include, or maybe something Mosconi Cup Style,
Nahhhhh.... forget it, it sounds like a horrible idea.
I predict big things for the food channel and Iron Chef, sounds like a real winner
