time for stu SJM to get some kind of award

JAM said:
I enjoy reading Stu's trip reports and commonsense analysis of pool politics in today's world. Maybe AzBilliards can award SJM a banner or some logo underneath his AzBilliards Photo Profile. I'm trying to think of a good one. Maybe something like "AzBilliards Pool Savant," "AzBilliards Scribe," "Pool Archivist," or something witty.

For us virtual railbirds, it is a godsend to read about happenings behind the scenes. It's not easy to remember each and every detail and thereafter put them in words, but contributing them to this forum is creating a pool archives. Stu's contributions and words will, indeed, be a great resource for future pool enthusiasts. :)

Stu is the bomb, but by any chance were you and Keith at the Green Mill in Chicago last night? Almost said hello but wasn't sure. Hope all is well!
 
What Stu does has done has been said over and over. Unbiased reports and commentary with usually the kindest light possible on flaws in the events or players.

Like some others now gone from AZB, Stu is a treasure. Many won't realize that until too late. JAM is absolutely right about the quality of Stu's trip reports. They should all be combined in one place and made available.

JAM Thought Regarding Stu.jpg

Yes, I had a successful career, but I know I caught a few rolls in my corporate life that enabled me to retire at 50 and to live the life I now lead. I traveled to at least two pro events a year from 1976-2008. Ever since my retirement in 2008, I have traveled to nearly every US Open 9ball, Derby City Classic, and Mosconi Cup and have been to several International Opens and Turning Stone Classics.

pretty amazing. have you thought about going to hanoi? i know i would. not that retirement is on the horizon for me
 
This is my first time ever responding to any post on here but I feel Stu deserves any and all recognition he gets. My wife and I had the pleasure of meeting Stu at the International Open last year in St. Augustine. We just happened to sit next to him during a few matches. I recognized him from seeing him in the background on many different streams. A couple weeks later on the first day of a sold out Mosconi Cup our seats were right next to him again. He is one of the nicest and interesting people that i have ever met. My wife told him that when we grow up, we want to be just like you. Anyways, Stu if you're reading this, thank you for the great conversations and being so kind to my wife and I.

I've never even been to Asia. I think if I do make a trip there, I'd be more likely to check out Tokyo than Hanoi.

Stu if you go to Tokyo please let me know. It has the best food in the world there, not just Japanese food. Pretty much everything, the pizza is fair. Most everything else is amazing. Lots of pool, amazing place to visit.

Ive been there many many times and know it well. It’s much larger than NYC and impossible to see it all. Japan is amazing. It’s probably my favorite county to visit for a month.

Best
Fatboy 🇯🇵🇯🇵
