thats what all the guys tell the ladies.Clare said:I don't want to offend anyone, but to me it looks more like a foot than a hand. Except for the wristwatch.
SJDinPHX said:Thats true, Red was a big guy...But I remember him as having hands more like a piano player, or a surgeon...Those ugly hands, (with the deformed fingers) could well be those of a starving bank pool player...except he would be incapable of running 8 balls, in one pocket.....
"Head DuckDick" <---wishes Doc would 'fess up..
PS..Seriously, I still say they're the Red Rooster's hands...Also, Red (Breit) almost always played with his sport coat on, didn't he Rod ? But we know they aren't his, unless the picture somehow got mirrored or reversed.

It would be interesting, Doc, to see a few more of those mystery bridge hands. No new players please.
Right you are, Jackson! Billy & Buddy were commentating. ~Docblackeee said:I did recognize the hand. I think he was playing Harry "The Hat" Burton.
stevelomako said:Stock up on them shirts Jack!
Hmmm, I wonder if this was a hint on this thread?

By my calculations, you came out a little ahead because you had the nickname right and the last nameblackeee said:Yeah, I got the first name wrong. At least I broke even.

In viewing this match, one must take pause, and wonder at the number of victim's in his [sic] trophy case (AKA "beat list")..
The jury is still out, as to whether it was his normal speed, or (as he loudly proclaims) a rare sub-standard performance...
DuckDick <---will now accept differing viewpoints...
fred bentivegna said:..that you would take time out to watch me on video. Unfortunately, I didnt generate the same amount of interest in what you were doing, so I havent allowed myself the pleasure (sic) of your video match with Cliff. To reiterate, I would rather, blah, blah, blah, put my face, blah, blah, blah, in Nancy Pelosi's, blah, blah, blah, then sweat your action.
Conversely however, your interest in my affairs is monumental. I heard that you have more detectives and investigators out on the street trying to locate just one false representation on the beat list, than MSNBC sent to Alaska to did up dirt on Sarah Palin. After all this time don't you think by now you could have maybe even bribed somebody to lie for you?
I may myself dig up Clem and question him about that 9 ball win that you claim. It sounds a lot like that Clem story from Vernon Eliot, who said he went to Cinn., had only 1 barrel, and he broke Clem playing 1pkt without having ever played 1pkt in his life. Vernon I can overlook, because I actually did see him beat good players.
