I'd like to say hello to everyone first....."hello all you fellow one hole buffs", haven't posted on AZ in quite a while and just found this site in the last week or so.......ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!
Anyway, I've been pretty busy lately with something that kind of relates to this site and I'll be putting my 2 cents in and more, here.
I bought another pool room in the Detroit area (Livonia, MI) at the end of April and I'm still in a little bit of shock that I'm doing it again.......but......when you love pool, I guess you just want to keep getting punished trying to make things better (Grady knows what I mean). It's going great and things turned around way better and faster than I could have hoped, thanks to ALL my friends from the old place.
What I wanted to say now was regarding all the talk about the revival of the U.S. OPEN ONE-POCKET and how everyone thinks it shouldn't be a limited field.......OF COURSE IT SHOULD! It should be the cream of the crop.....like Golf does with their Open....I think you should EARN your way in, with invitations from winning certain tournaments in the past year, some invitations for people with past credentials.....AND THEN.....to make it an OPEN event.....QUALIFIERS.....for anyone else to have a chance to get in.
THIS EVENT SHOULD BE FOR THE..........BEST OF THE BEST!!!
Quality instead of quantity, think about it.
