You win

Grady said:
I want to thank all the people who have been in my corner and been my friend. That being said, I'm all done here. There will be no more posts.
You guys win, I have way too good a life to argue with nitwits. Goodbye. Please, no private messages. I won't look at them or answer.

Yah, I win! Wait... What did I win again?

I would like to say thanks to all the asswipes who caused this......


Grady Please dont go.......

I have been here for about four months and Grady was no where to be seen, then he came on here whining about not getting an invitation to the 14.1 championships and has done nothing but cry and cause pain since, I for one am happy he is leaving.

ENOUGH ALREADY!

Let the man leave in peace......Let him leave this forum with a little bit of dignity.

I respect his ability and have also enjoyed watching one of his exhibitions years ago. However, I think he is leaving with the same amount of dignity that he displayed here over the past severl weeks....NONE

lol, so Grady starts 47 threads on basically the same topic and berates everyone involved with UPA and World 14.1 for not inviting him. He shows no good will toward anyone in the pool world and sees only his side of every story, yet the ones who urge him to make peace with those in power of THEIR tournaments so he might garner an ivite or at least co-exist in the pool world are asswipes? He has been nothing but a bitter, tired, spiteful poster over the past few months and decides to take a leave from the forum and it is all his doing.

Well said, positive rep to you Corvette.

Not to be evil or antagonistic butttttt just going out on a limb here, if he wanted to leave in peace posting a topic about probably isnt the best way especially after all of the heat as of late.
 
Calm Down Grady Jr.

Hey Grady Junior don't get your feelers too hurt!! You are correct I have no clue what has been going on here over the past two years, nor do I care. All I know is that since he has been on here over the past several weeks all he has done is ***** and cry about things and I would bet most people do not really want to hear his bitter vitriol.:mad:

Take Care

Sorry 100% of people can't see things the exact same way as you Grady :(

Oh well back, back to the nitwit factory.

Wow....2 years ...yeah guess your are a master AZ'er now... and of course coats cant have a clue..4 months..pssshhhht..what a joke..no way he can have an opinion on ANYHTING!!!

no doubt GM ONCE posted good info...but for the last while he didnt do anything but moan and complain...at least here in the main forum...
 
You know...

Well you know its simple........ dont wanna hear it? Dont read it....

I have been a member of this forum for the past 2 years. And I think Grady not getting invited is a shame also. However, this is not the first time Grady has been behind the 8 ball. I think Grady would have enjoyed this forum much more had he been more a part of the threads he as of lately created. Grady, you know that dropping a bomb then running like hell won't win a war. You got to stay around and clean up the casualties to be on top.

On another note, Grady hasn't posted in many threads at all. He has started a lot of threads about ring games and such but hasn't given much in way of instruction. That's cool, though. Almost all of the threads he created usually took off like a wildfire.

Grady, go away for a while then come back with a new demeanor. One in which will only help the struggling pool world.

Okay okay, I finally got sucked into this thread and I said I wasn't going to do it. Like I said before Grady and I have had our ups and downs, but we are fine now, so that's good enough for me.

Grady is and always has been an emotional guy, who wears his heart on his sleeve. If he loves you, he loves you and if he hates you, look out! That's Grady. I've ALWAYS enjoyed seeing Grady in action, because he will be doing some talking. To his opponent and the crowd. He can be hilarious at times, funnier than anything you ever read in this forum. I know, I've seen him crack up a room full of hard core gamblers.

That's the Grady I miss, much more so than sullen E.S. I would LOVE to see him come back on here and forget about all this nonsense with invites. That tournament is OVER! I want to hear his stories about the games he made in L.A. and Colorado Springs and everywhere else. I mean the guy did gamble with all the greatest poolplayers of the last 40 years. A lot more than me, more even than fearless Freddie.

Grady is a living encyclopedia on the great players, more so because he played them, not sweated them like I did. No one on here besides Billy could tell us more about how Ronnie in his prime compared with Efren. Or how good Greg Stevens played or Buddy for the cash. Or Shorty, or Red, or anyone else for that matter. I'd love to hear his opinion on the all time greats and why. I want to argue with him about Richie Florence vs. Bernie Schwartz etc etc.

More than being a being a famous One Pocket legend, Grady is a true legend of the road. His road stories could probably fill ten books. EVERY pool player from the last three to four decades knew who Grady was, and if they gambled, he gave them action.

I don't know why that Grady hasn't showed up on here. He's far more interesting than the guy I see arguing with other promoters. Let it go and come back and let's shoot the shit. For starters, I want to know if you played Hopkins in the 80's. You two were the best before Efren emerged. I know you played Ronnie several times.

Excellent try Jay.:D

I would like nothing more than to hear some of those stories. Much of this kind of pool data can only be gleaned from those who were there via word of mouth or, in this instance, via fingers on the forum. :p

Great post, one which I hope is followed through on. :)

Why Babe Doesn't Come HERE

You know, Jay, after reading your post, it got me to thinking....
It was reported that Babe Ruth liked to eat hot dogs during the game and drank massive quantities of beer.
So, if Babe Ruth could come back to life and chose to post here on AZB, about half of the posters here would love to ask him questions about the game back then and the great players of his era. They'd be tickled to death to have a H.O.F. player of his caliber here.
The other half would would lambast him for eating junk food and call him fat/obese. Others still, would take EVERY opportunity to call him a drunk and tell him why today's younger players are better than he ever was.
Babe would get fed up and LOG OFF, never to return.....

Doug
( I'd ask him for his autograph and a one of his baseball cards ) :)

Great post Jay! I was trying to say something along those lines but failed to nail as eloquently as you did!
