Treachery in the IPT qualifier....

No one was at Hard Times and saw anything first hand?
Some have already said that they were there and witnessed it first hand. At the the risk of getting into another 3 page ordeal of making a point, I'm not going to say anything other than good for them that they didn't run home and post the names all over the internet.

We all know that it happend, there's no need to name names & burn the guys at the stake....esp since they weren't the only ones doing it, they were probably just the only ones caught.

For those that have to know who it was.... there's a post in this thread that tells you how to figure it out.

God bless the pool groupies that kiss the asses of all the top players.:rolleyes:

The only thing I will say is that I am not a groupie. I've known some of the players since we were teenagers and they were just short stops in the local pool room. (I played pool, I wasn't drolling over pool players) I've been friends with a lot of them for yrs and have never bedded them. Groupie, I am not. Friend, that believes in dignity & respect, I am.

Timberly,
You are turning me on with this talk of bedding people. In fact, the next time you come through Georgia I will give you a free shot at the title. All you have to do is buy me a few bourbon and cokes.
Love,
Tommy

Damn, if only some of those L.A. papparazzi could have stopped following Paris Hilton, and Brad Pitt&Angelina Jolie around this past weekend and followed around the poolplayers instead - Then, we could know every single bad thing that any of the pool players did ! ^_^

... My comments are more a fuction of what I and others in the news media think of KT.

Nick

And what some other ordinary people like me think of KT. However what all this has to do with the topic of the thread I'm not sure.

I don't know who the people are inside the IPT other than Deno and KT, and neither of them personally at that.

But I will say that I do not think they are very bright nor knowledgeable about the nature of pool players and the inner games that go on within this sport.

It seems that because KT has and is throwing a bunch of money around and thinks whatever his notions might be he can do. This is not good for him nor the already questionable integrity of our game.

Someone needs to stand up to KT and flat tell him to get a grip on this IPT thing. From the player selection process to his rediculous bonus prizes, this is starting to seem more like a circus and an embarassment to those quality people that do exist in our game.

Just my opinion...

"He who holds the gold makes the rules."

Aftre your post I went back and read what I had posted to see where you might've gotten that idea and I could see how you could've come to your conclusion. I apologized and stated that it wasn't my intent but that I could see how it sounded that way. I then tried to convey what I meant.

I don't know what else I could've done. I looked at it, agreed to see it your way, and re-worded as best as I could. Hopefully this was good enough for you. If it wasn't good enough then I'm sorry, there's not a whole lot more that I could do. I made an honest effort to prove to you that you misunderstood my intentions and what I was thinking. Have a good day.

Thats all we can do on a well run forum. Discuss ideas, listen to others opinions, resolve contradictions, and come up with a better understanding of ourselves on the issue. Thank you for your reaching out to fellow AZ'ers. Hope to meet you at next years Derby in the room.

Now how can I get a draw stroke like Shawn Putnam?

Sorry, I have heard many a fillipino refer to themselves as flips. Usually just younger ones, and not really around poolhalls. I guess I was just to lazy to type it, and the one's I have heard are to lazy to say it.. :)
Just to set the record straight, "flip" is a derogatory term, similar to "chink" and "spic". I don't even excuse filipinos calling themselves as such.

lol, people on here using derogatory terms and I get a warning for calling someone an idiot, makes sense, OR NOT!
 
:cool: Smart pool. Banking the eight for money in the bank. Nothing wrong in that.
The organizers were peeved off the players were smarter than them. Something wrong with that. :cool:
 
KT is supposed to be promoting pool and before the first tournament starts he is calling players 'unethical low-lifes'????
The players took advantage of the situation- why shouldnt they? Only 2 of the 72 will win something, ie a spot on the tour. $144,000 goes to the IPT.:eek:
