About LEE BRETT'S statement about Bonus Ball. I would like to clarify that there was NO eviction notice served on the Bonus Ball arena. Lee get your facts straight my friend. Johnny Archer
 
This is all so unprofessional and bush league. I was actually starting to get into Bonus Ball, but if you want to run a successful, respectable league, it can't go on breaks, have rumors of people not being paid, have people drunkenly putting up on their facebook walls that there's been eviction notices and then umpteen rebuttals about how it's not true and he said this and he said that.

According to some of the players, they still haven't been paid. If they cannot afford to pay their staff not being able to make rent doesn't seem like much of a stretch. *But*, I would imagine you would have miss a few months, probably 3, before you were served notice.

In any event, if funding is established, I cannot see Lee, or anyone who has made public mention of funding difficulties being a continued employee. Reporting your legal actions against your employer is a sure fire way to get a poor severance package and free help packing your office.

When Barry went off the rails he may have well have been right, but he didn't do himself any favors either (other than cashing out his shares at the right time). Between hotel key-cards, ABP hit-n-runs, boycotts, payment failures, the public relations nightmares of BB, these "pros" look pretty amateurish.

My big question is how much worse can you make yourselves look? In 365 days I'm sure there will be an answer. Get a business manager fellas. Not just for Bonus Ball, for all of the players, and all of the events. And for the love of (Diety of Choice) do not post press or personal releases when you are angry.
 
I think Max Eberle does ok living in the Sin City.

Yeah, but Max also builds dragster motors and gives skating lessons...and he writes books about the art of origami and haiku. He's got a thing for Asian's culture.

I don't think most folks have those time consuming and income generating options.

What's with the friggin bonus ball? Whay are all the players letting the same shit happen over and over again?

PLEASE let me be wrong. BONUS BALL- PAY THE FUGGIN PEOPLE!!
 
I also don't believe I have read any stories of Max getting into fights, being arrested, dumping matches, being unprofessional, causing drama, getting into fights on the internet, living in his car, missing matches, getting drunk, gambling when he is broke, etc etc etc. This is no coincedence. Some people can figure it out and grow up, some people don't.

"how do you keep from complaining when things are going wrong?

It's been days since we has an update about Lees financial and housing situation. :(

All this talk about Lee reminded me of this story today:

I have a friend that always seems to be content and at peace no matter how many negative things are going on in his life. I ask him the other day "how do you keep from complaining when things are going wrong, I know you have problems like everybody else."

He looked at me and said "I used to be a chronic complainer, I'd complain because I had to do laundry, clean house, fix my car, my job, my wife, etc....then one day I "real eyesed" that I'd never be able to stop complaining, it was just in my nature".

I was really surprised by his response "but you never complain, what do you mean when you say you could never stop - it appears you stopped?"

He smiled, "well, a friend told me how fortunate I was to have a full load of laundry, a house to clean, a car to drive, a job to pay my bills, and a wife to keep me company....... you see, he had none of those things and was living under a bridge in a cardboard box......and he told me he was grateful to have the bridge and the box....from that point on when my mind told me to complain, I told it how lucky we were to have something to complain about!" - 'The Game is the Teacher' CJ Wiley
 
I just noticed that Lee is entered in the 8 ball as well. Was this also from an AZB member sponsorship? I didn't remember seeing his name listed a few days ago. I'm thinking maybe someone else sponsored him for his shot at redemption. After viewing him walking around the area yesterday enjoying a Starbucks, I highly doubt he's down to his last $17.

I wish I had the balls to ask for a handout, waste my opportunity by being a drunken idiot and then convince someone else to put up $550 for me.

What a low life.

Bonus Ball is hanging by a thread. If Fatboy is telling the truth, that there's apparently some wealthy people supporting it and that Bonus Ball is fine, it'll be very interesting to see how it plays out, because if I had a lot of money, even if I love pool, I'm not sure I'd be investing it in this soap opera.

Such a shame.

I thought Mr. Fatboy was just being sarcastic.

To address some of your other statements: I'm sorry you started liking it, so did many of the pro players. The hiatus has made some of them very edgy. Just like an empty promise will.

I'm just mystified that people on here would want this to continue because they like watching pool.

Unless BB starts getting T.V. contracts they will fold.
 
Why didn't the guy with the house and car help his friend living in a box?
That seems like a crappy thing to let your friend live in a box.
Do you think maybe he gave money to the friend to at least buy a meal?
I bet the friend spent it on booze instead. His hobo friend real-eyesed you can buy
four bottles of MD 20/20 with a twenty.

Quit complaining...;)
 
Not quite sure why anyone would expect him to be a decent horse. I for one have never heard of him beating anyone other than The Monk.

Not Warren, the instructor guy,

They were two sides of the same coin.

The only vice MAx has is Asian women, that isn't such a bad thing now is it.
