I think his skin is darker than Amar's, but I do realize that in California, it is possible to tan, much more so than it is over here on the East Coast!
That's what I'm saying too. I am going to call Tony myself and ask him! He should know if that's him or not!
I know this sounds strange, but that looks like Jesse Bowman in the background wearing a red and white shirt with the baseball cap tilted to the side! LOL!
Maybe he's waiting for seconds!
Please call Tony and tell him Tom told you it was Amar.
Tony hasn't had that much hair in 6 years..
Believe me, it is Amar... you owe Blah Blah a dollar...

AND Amar is shooting with a Bobby Hunter cue stick in this pic! I know that cue well, but that's the topic for another thread! :wink:
Look at the cuestick in the other picture! :nanner:
LOL! Somehow that line cracks me up: "You owe Blah Blah a dollar."
:rotflmao1::rotflmao1::rotflmao1::rotflmao1:
I'll call him as soon as my other half gives me his cell number! :wink:
Also, Amar had a smaller head than Tony. I say the big-headed boy is tony from a dozen years ago. :wink:

voodoo bonnie hoffman played at the pool hall i started at .
does she play anymore at all?
No $hit from here, I actually think you might be right. Nothing else makes sense.
You know, I am divorced. I also like pool and going to the gym. Some say witty. Just thought I'd let you know these things.
creedo, just to clarify i wasnt accusing you of being mysogynistic in any way and i apologize if my post made it seem that way to you. i appreciate your effort to add some actual facts to this thread. i will say that there have been some rather surprisingly mysogynistic posts in this thread. thanks female azb'ers for weighing in. and thanks jam for attempting to highjack this thread. so it may be fair to say that there are fewer top female players b/c there are fewer female players at all and that the incentive to top female players to ramp up their game to the level of beating top male players is basically nonexistant, but there is no real gender difference that would prevent a gifted female pool player from doing so if she chose to?

What happened to her I did not see her name in the Amway Cup lists and she always plays in it??
Over here in USA we don't run females against males (only occasionaly)but in Europe a filly/mares will run against male horses and compete equally against them its just a matter of training .
That'd be cheating the women IMO. right now i see women on tv a lot more than i see men on tv. i think until the male players can get things straightened out with their sponsorships the women should keep doing their own thing
My bad, I misread it because I'd taken flak earlier for a post on the subject. Thanks for setting things straight.
I think fewer female players is gonna be a factor no matter what, and sociological stuff is the other major factor. I don't think it's physical.
A few people have already said the 'sociological stuff' in other words, but the way I think of it is... competition is a form of conflict/fighting. Men grow up with muscles and are used to having that security that comes from knowing that if stuff gets ugly, they can get into a fistfight and have a chance of coming out ok. Between this and their natural production of testosterone they are more willing to get into fights or get into someone's face.
Women grow up being aware of their comparative lack of muscle, and they look for other non-physical ways to solve conflicts, or they just avoid them. This reluctance to get into fights (or get in anyone's face) could also lead to less competitive drive in general. They'd rather work together on a team and ...I think akatrigger put it best... "hug and cry" than pit themselves all alone against the rest of the field. They also mature faster. Between these things, a lot of women might never try to play serious pool because they view extreme competitiveness as silly or pointless. They'd rather put their energy into something more productive.
Someone else joked about them going on to do safe womanly stuff like becoming cooks or maids. The sad part is, there's so little money in pool that becoming e.g. a cook is a much more sensible option, financially.
