Standing Up

Well, whomever you decide to believe and/or side with I will make this one observation and then call this quits for myself.

Prior to any of this happening there was a question on Allison Fishers website (yes, I have looked at it) posed to her about who does her repair work. Her reply was..."A local guy named Kevin".
Well, come to find out that local guy is Kevin Varney. Can anyone find that passage on her website now? It is gone and to me that is very telling in terms of who the ladies are going to side with in this issue.
Kevin went so far as to insinuate he would not work on any WPBA players cues until he received an apology. Well, as far as I can tell, he ain't getting an apology and he ain't working on their cues anymore.

Just an observation from the peanut gallery.

I am not taking KV's side by ANY means but yes that passage is still on her site.

" Q. Even though you play with a Cuetec cue, do you play with it "right out of the box" or do you have your cues modified such as tips, shaft, taper, etc. and do you have someone local do your work for you?

A. I do use an out of the box Cuetec. All that I ask for is a 56 inch cue. The average cue length is 58 inches. Other than that I use a mori tip and a local guy named Kevin does my tip changing. "

Hmmm, it was missing.

Well, I'm done but good detective work on your part.
 
Only 7 pages? :confused: I thought all threads about Kevin Varney would at least be 15 pages longs. Geez. You guys are lost without Jimbo aren't you? :rolleyes:

BTW, I'm still not sure 1) why she's mad and 2) why she didn't address this to Kevin privately. :(

(quoted from Kristi's first post in this thread)
"By the way, this matter cold have been handled more privately…but, -- still waiting for a call back."

Read her post(s) and you should be able to figure out at least part of the reason she is mad. Neither party feels obligated to give their entire life story to satisfy the curious. Seems reasonable to me, too much typing if nothing else.

Very offensive

Bishop said:
lol I'm sure you are right I just like to stir the pot a bit. I guess my point is we don't see pro ball players jumping on NBA message boards looking air dirty laundry because some dude said he made Shaq the greatest shoe insert ever and he and Shaq shots baskets. His agent would have a crap over that.

I guess I can appreciate Varney pumping his product for more than I can some whiny manhater. You know he didn't say anything bad at all about her. So what if he imbelished a bit she could have PM'd or something. I'll never support someone like her and yes just based on what I see and read here.

I don't get the buzz either she isn't that good looking.

You used words such as "crying rape" "manhater" and "lier" against Ms. Carter ... surely this is much more offensive words than Jimbo. Why aren't you warned or banned???

In what way. It wasn't meant to be taken as actual forcable sexing :rolleyes: . There is a point intended I'll remove it anyhow. I still think she's crying for nothing. Sounds like a bit of an attention "showgirl" herself. Where is this imfamous original thread I'd like to read it.

PLEASE be nice to her. She is a very quiet person and keeps a low profile.she is NOT anything what you are trying to depict her as.:cool:

I deleted the rape word even though you guys took it out of context to bad you don't see that it was used as a term not an actual actio. Hell if I were to say "cry foul" someone would want me banned for refering to the NBA. I wasn't banned because what I said was true. She did lie. What kind of "pro' gets into a interweb war and then gets caught in a lie.

The manhater part was a joke but probably and based on her comments it was pretty funny and I just played on what someone else said. I didn't say anything out of line and what was controversial was removed. If Kristy doesn't like it she should have thought about that before opening herself up and acting so unprofessional.

Then maybe she shouldn't have done what she did. Same could be said for Varney, they are no different in their actions. She should have expected to be judged by her cover since she put it out there.

What did she lie about? If you are going to say definitively then produce the lie and how YOU know she lied.

Sure she said Varney worked on her cue twice and they meet twice. When in fact he's done an aweful lot of work on her cues and they had more than a few passing moment with each other. Varney made that clear in his first response back to her. The maybe you don't remember post.....

Anyhow she acted totally unprofessional for someone in her position. I don't know who her sponsers are but I doubt they'd appreciate her getting into an interweb arguement. If she had a problem she should have found a better way. She wanted the attention and she wanted to make someone look foolish.

We are not that far off guy. I don't totally agree with everything Varney has done but I do know he didn't intend to hurt anyones feelings and in fact he had some nice things to say.

She had a moment and flipped out. Its pretty obvious they know each other a little better than she made it seem. I don't think what he did was out of line at all. Then she had the gall to say "oh you can use my name but don't charge" rediculous statement and immature.

Example. I lived next door to Sean Elliott for 3 years I had a few conversations with him nothing too personal but I had no problem letting him know my friends and family liked his game and I even asked from time to time to sign some things for me and for my friends. I knew him its no big deal and he didn't blow up on some NBA board crying and whining about the extent of which I knew him. His agent would flip out if he acted that way.

Because VARNEY said so? I remember clearly but you don't seem to read so well considering she cleared this up in the initial post to this thread.

What did she do ,sir?

She came on this forum and publically aired her dirty laundry. Not the time or the place to do that for someone who considers herself a pro. She should have known better. I think it would have been different had Varney put her face and name on say a Varney website. Dude just name dropped and he had worked for her.

You know what I replaced two tips for Vivian Villarreal when I worked for the Billiard Factory in SA, I even told my friends I did the work for her. I don't recall her melting down online over it. I also played with her a few times at Bananas too. I know her. Lets see if she comes on to deny it!!!!

You see, over here you got who knows who, then over here you got favortism.....

I think I have lost intelligence due to arguing with the lack thereof here....

I used to be like Lionel Richie and could do this all night long, but I think I'm out like Tookie... (yes, that was a metaphor)

Because she said so??? No way someone meltsdown like she did if there wasn't more to the story.

Who cares anyhow the point is she melted down online publically and tried to make someone look foolish. Thats the real problem.

So what I'm playing Devils advocate here. Its not like I don't see where she's coming from but she should know better than to put herself out there like that. This is exactly why 99% of pro athletes don't even run their own myspace pages.

Lets say even if he only replaced one tip for her and they shook hands at a photo shoot at the mall. Still doesn't change the fact that she shouldn't act the way she did. Its stupid for a pro athlete to do what she did.

I think you more just want to attack me than what I'm saying. Just because she lied and then cleared it up doesn't make the situation any better. Bigger much bigger picture here.

Be sure to not use metaphors here.

I hear you I don't mind a good arguement but even I'm losing interest. She dissapeared anyway, probably realized what she did.
