US Open 9-ball updates thread..

Nope. Not worried in the least. Even though its likely to never happen, I have a plan in place. And I dont use credit cards either.
I already had an investor wanting to throw $20M into this sport, I turned him down, because that don't even begin to make a dent in the bucket for what this sport needs, don't want to see him waste his money!!
 
If any of you guys posting about getting youth involved in our sport are serious I'd suggest you support Ra Hannah and his Junior International Pool Tour. Rather than just talk about it, Ra is doing something and he has created a cohesive tour for young players to compete in. It has proven very popular in only its second year with large fields of players. Talk is cheap! I've put some of money behind Ra and wish him success in his endeavor to promote pool for young people. You can see matches from all of his tournaments on Youtube. Just look for On The Wire Creative Media. The streams have been free and the competition has been good. There are already many good young players in the USA and thanks to Ra many more are being developed.
There's all kinds of programs out here based on helping the youth of today, but they all share the same end results, once that youth turns 18, and officially become adults, all those support programs seem to drop off, what takes their place then?
 
Funny how you seem to believe in that program, but you think I'm a nutcase😅

Glen let’s be honest, we are all nut cases. 🤩🤩

I know one thing for sure, all those wanting to push youth so badly into be the future pool players of tomorrow would also be the parents telling their kid, if you're going to continue living at home while you pursue your dreams about being a professional pool player, you need to get your ass a job in the meantime and start paying so damn rent around here, or move your ass out to one of your friends houses!!

A professional pool tour. The makings of which are now being put in place.

And thats a joke, snooker already has a Pro Tour, and its the same people winning at the top all the time.

There has to be something better than a Pro Tour, which is nothing more than events with the same players chasing them down.

Glen, until you produce something, you're just another guy preaching on a street corner. Dreams are great, but results are what count.

And you think the World Snooker Tour is a joke. Really! If you could accomplish half what Matchroom and Hearn have done with snooker I'd nominate you for the HOF!

What Professional pool needs is Pro events taking place simultaneously in different regions around the world on a regular basis, THEN the Pros in Europe have a Pro event going on, while America has an event going on, the Philippines, Japan....so the same players can't chase the events down, going from one to the next, to the next, so that the SAME TOP 20 players are NOT taking down all the top money spots!!!

Even Ronnie O Sullivan said the only plays the fans want to watch is the top 20, because they're the only ones that really count! He was also quoted saying won't be any professionals playing snooker in another 10 years, because they'll all be amateurs, because on the TOP pros can make a living! He's NOT the only world snooker champion saying that either!!!

Glen, I hate to say it, but you sound delirious. You call all the pool players bums, drug addicts and criminals, you denigrate the promoters who are doing positive things for the betterment of our sport and you claim to know all the answers. And yet what have you done besides blow smoke up our ass. Absolutely ZERO! Why anyone on here engages with you is beyond me. Shame on me for responding to your narcissistic rants.

Your reputation on AZB is not a good one and less than a year ago you were called out for your chicanery. You disappeared for about six months and only returned after you thought the smoke had cleared. Well guess what, it hasn't.

Get it through your head Jay, Matchroom is a PROMOTOR, NOT a sponsor!! What really brought money into snooker was BETFRED putting up the ADDED money in return for the exclusive gaming rights to snooker!!

Really? WHY hasn't MATCHROOM brought on major advertising dollars???

Nothing but side stepping the conversation, and with no facts, just opinions.

Are you aware of the fact that Diamond pays Matchroom more money for the use of their tables, than Matchroom puts up for the players added money? Are you aware that Diamond not only promoters the DDC, but they ADD more money as the sponsor also, than Matchroom adds to any single event they promote?

Oh yeah, Matchroom is the future, for the BLIND LEADING THE BLIND!!!
