WWE
Smack down Drama
|
|
|
 My
stop off had a little drama on wed night.
It was a strange vibe at the stop off. I walked in and the tension was thick,
especially around the pool table. I will not mention names out of respect for
my buddies but I feel somewhat responsible for this. I can see the foul here.
I mean, adopting players from other teams should always be exercised with caution
and consideration. There is a person who is joining my team next season and her
old captain let her know how he felt about it. It ended with lots of yelling
and f#@k you’s. I kept asking my self did I look like that when my buddy
left my team for another? Did we look like that? Am I turning into the other
guy who did that to me? The circumstances are a little different but the idea
is the same I think, Karma. More detail later...

Did
you know? That it is illegal to take any kind of Photograph
or use any kind of image capturing dexxxxxe in the New
York City Subway System. This has been the law since
911. Do you know how I found out about this? When I decided
to take a shot of myself on 125th street platform subway
station. A police officer walked up to me and asks, “What
are you doing?”
When I said I was just taking a pic of myself for my web
site he ask me for my I.D. He was cool, it almost seemed
like he new what I was doing was no real foul, but he had
to anyway. He could have taken all my stuff, but gave me
a warning in stead, whew. Close one William. Come to think
of it, yes I can see how it would look sketchy if some one
had all this computer equipment in the subway system 2:00am
in the morning and started with the image capturing and putting
it in a transmitting dexxxxxe; like a computer. But what about
cell phones? Is this a problem? I have somewhat of a problem
with it, especially when I am not looking and then some one
emails me a shot of myself on a day I don’t even remember.

E Bar is Macho. It has 32 trophies
coming it way. Two seasons for Rumble Fish, one season for Team
Stick it in and another season for Los Macho's. We are going to
need a U-haul truck for all those trophies. E-bar has been winning
for the last year. This is definitely the place to play or at least
the bar to play out of.

My
little Girl April O Neil "15 years"

 |

So I reply after she tells me this
sad little story
So why are you even taking to him?
Is there something you have that he needs? Or does
he have something you need? Well, what ever it is get
it resolved or quit trying to progress your part time
little friendship all for the sake of both of you being
entertained at your boring jobs. Why the hell would
anybody date anyone who is going to choose who is safe,
non-threatening and wont influence their relationship
with ideas of independence and socializing. |
|
So
there’s this girl, she was telling me a something
she called
It’s a part time thing…
My guy friend will not hang with me on the weekends
because I’m not cool.
There is this guy, I know, he has a girl friend,
blond, tall, real pretty; what ever; he will be
friends and
communicate all week (Mon thru Thurs) on the phone
with me at work, right up until the point (Fri, sat,
Sun)
were we can to get together after a long work week
and actually see each other physically and actually
start
interacting with each other. God forbid that might
happen, other people might see. That’s when we step over
the limits. Once a week during some lunch date on Tuesday
is good enough; twice a week? Out of the question Twice
a week might indicate we are actually good friends. Twice
a week might indicate to your spouse you have a social
life out side of your relationship. So to make her feel
secure you act like a little bite of a jerk with me at
the very last day of the week seconds before I might
suggests we hang out for drinks or something, you figure
that tiny bite of jerky-ness (just a little) is enough
to not really get me angry enough to not speak to for
a weeks and weeks on end at a time, instead hopefully
only for a weekend. Then you’ll call me on
Monday or Tuesday and act like everything is all
right. How
pathetic I am, your are, we are. It just occurred
to me right now. A simple fact in our stupid none
productive
friend-ship. You and I have no obligations to each
other. So why am I beating myself up talking to you,
and why
are you talking to me? |

about
last night
At
Broadway watching the always diligently practicing
Craig playing Captain Heath.
|

|
|
Craig
is the one guy I sense in the future will be the man
to play, beat and try to get on your pool team for
that point during the critical match. I remember when
that boy couldn’t even hold the stick. Now it
looks like he will be shooting like Earl the Pearl.
|
E-bar
They refelted the table with new bumpers and slate...When they
took the table apart to do this....
Wow all this Chalk was inside the table.... This is years pool
game story telling. Every cube has a tale...
|
|
|
Dont
leave my team William,
here...
have a cookie
Ronnie
has given me incentive to stay on his Tuesday team.
|
Previews
for this Monday’s coming match.
Mike
and Ronnie had the table re-felted, the bumpers and
marble changed and updated, it’s a whole new
table at E-bar; WeeEeeee. Why couldn’t it
have been done when my team was in the rankings for
a
playoff
spot? Speaking of
witch. I was talking to Spencer about our team match-ups
on Monday and why the outcome was as it was.
|
 |
 |
Alex
wants it so bad he can taste it
Douglas
went to six and I went to a five. When you have guys
like Vinny or Douglas on your team, guys who play
games race to 9 or even sometimes race to 14. Having
to win three or four matches on an amateur Bar league
don’t mean jack squat. These guys play open
to professional level players for years, do-ya really
think a 20 year veteran of the game pool is going
to feel pressure from guys like us Spence?
|
Are
you ready for Alex?
|
 |
 |
If
you can beat Rumble Fish you are a team to be reckoned
with
Dont
take him lightly or he will smack you around; your
wondering who I am refering too? Both of you's.
|
Aaron
has got the kind of game were being a level five
is a joke.He could be a level eight and still win.
My
guys didn’t win because they didn’t really
want to win; were was the incentive? We got cheated
twice. I have run out of incentives to keep my players
on the ball of taking APA bar games seriously.
The
APA owes the E-bar 24 trophies, 16 of witch go why
back to the summer of 2003. All the time and money
spent was pretty much taken away from us when we
lost the tri-annuals empty handed; twice. Even if
we get our well-earned trophies now it would be coming
from a time no one gives a shit about anymore.

In
the mean time.. I'll just enjoy the view

Yup…. it happened. My confidence was a little
shattered. It showed in my stroke when I went to BBC
with D, C, andI have not shot like all season,
up until now. As I was on the table shooting with Doug
felt like I was going to stay that way for a long time.
But it didn’t. I started
going back to my regular stroke again. I need to get
it out of my system; that icky feeling of no one believing
you can shoot and letting it bother you. I gota play
some more. I felt a little better before I left the
pool hall. This is awful. I feel yesterday was the
end of long journey. And I failed in my endeavor relevant
to that journey. Captains who are captains for a long
time should not do mistakes like that. |
Aaron
is now Happy MM & DD of Rumblefish
are longer fighting
|

Wow!!!
Karma is a bitch. I stole from her, then
he stole from me so I got robed, then he
got robed so she got robed. After that
was over, I got robbed. We all lost. Who
would of thought Ronnie would have been
part of the end equation.

THE
GREAT LAW
As
you sow, so shall you reap.
This is also known as the Law of Cause
and Effect.
Whatever we put out in the UniverseÝ
is what comes back to us.
If what we want is Happiness, Peace, Friendship, Love...
Then we should BE Happy, Peaceful, Loving, a Friend.
|
|
THE
LAW OF CREATION
Life
doesn't just HAPPEN, it requires our participation.
We are one with the Universe both inside and out.
Whatever surrounds us gives us clues to our inner state.
BE and DO yourself...
what you what to have in your Life.
|
|
THE
LAW OF HUMILITY
What
you refuse to accept, will continue for you.
If what we see is an enemy, or someone with a character trait
that we find to be negative,
Ýthen we ourselves are not focused on a higher level of existence.
|
|
THE
LAW OF GROWTH
Wherever
you go, there you are.
For us to GROW in Spirit it is we who must change and not the
people, places or things around us.
The only given we have in our lives is OURSELVESÝ
and that is the only factor we have control over.
When we change who and what we are within our heart
our life changes too. |
Go
To Spencers APA Standings |
THE
LAW OF RESPONSIBILITY
Whenever
there is something wrong,Ý
there is something wrong in me.
We mirror what surrounds usÝ
and what surrounds us mirrors us
We must take responsibility what is in our life.
|
|
THE
LAW OF CONNECTION
Even
if something we do seems inconsequential,
it is very important that it gets done
as everything in the Universe is connected.
Each step leads to the next step and so forth and so on.
Someone must do the initial work to get a job done.
Neither the first step nor the last
are of greater significance
They were both needed to accomplish the task.
Past, Present, Future
They are all connected...
|
Pic
of Sam from Mollyknight.com |
THE
LAW OF FOCUS
You
can't think of two things at the same time.
When our focus is on Spiritual Values it is impossible for us
to have lower thoughts such as greed or anger.
|
|
THE
LAW OF GIVING AND HOSPITALITY
If
you believe something to be true,
then sometime in your life
you will be called upon to demonstrate that truth.
Here is where we put what we SAY
that we have learned
into PRACTICE.
|
|
THE
LAW OF HERE AND NOW
Looking
back to examine what was,
prevents us from being totally in the HERE AND NOW.
Old thoughts, old patterns of behavior, old dreams...
Prevent us from having new ones.
|
|
THE
LAW OF CHANGE
History
repeats itself until
we learn the lessons that we need
to change our path.
|
Time
for a shave William |
THE
LAW OF PATIENCE AND REWARD
All
Rewards require initial toil.
Rewards of lasting value
require patient and persistent toil.
True Joy follows doing what we're suppose to be doing and waiting
for the Reward to come in it's on time.
|
|
THE
LAW OF SIGNIFICANCE AND INSPIRATION
You
get back from something whatever
you've put into it
The Value of something is a direct result of
the energy and intent that is put into it.
Every personal contribution
is also a contribution to the Whole
Lack luster Contributions have no impact on the Whole
or work to diminish it.
Loving Contributions Life Up and Inspire the Whole

About
Tuesday night 7:00pm till 1:00pm its over and we
lost, I lost…again…
Since the summer of two thousand and three one year after I finally
put together my supposedly get along well team. I have invested
lots of time, money, sweat and tears trying to get us to the
finals for and-too-Las Vegas. With the amount of money I have
paid for the couple of years on the APA, like Bilbo Bagans I
could have been there and back again. Of course winning the trip
is much more rewarding than just flying out there with a team
to take on the Minnie tournaments that happen. I have fought,
cried, kicked people off put people on and had people quit on
and about me and my team; I even smashed a pack of oatmeal cookies-there
was so much drama happening. The window of opportunity is now
gone for 2004. The next big win is one is for 2005. Can I wait
that long? Can I invest the energy for team management? I just
don’t know. Once before I have complained about the hazards
of captainship to point were I was going to quit the league all
together. I tried to take a break one season but I didn’t
want to lose my spot at the bar. This season was the season I
pretty much blew my load and it was almost for naught. Oh well;
lets just take it one step at a time William. It’s a long
road ahead maybe there is a big picture I haven’t step
back far enough to see.

A Quarter to 8????
A quarter too 8? I see you and your team-are-as-one. Good luck
if M is smart he would play you first or third. As far as I am
concerned you got game, even though sometimes I hear doubt and question
about your shooting, I see a champion waiting to pounce on all that oppose
you. Any insecurity you have about how you stroke can be remedied for
with very little effort. Just practice baby just practice.

4:30.pm after I hung up with a dummy
Our conversation today’s tells me you might be having some uncertainty
about your ability for enhancement. It seemed more like an argument than
a conversation; were both grown ups, whatever. Not that I am trying to
start another Will-vs. -Vic battle royal but. From the way it seemed
you were trying to double talk me and loop the facts about a few weeks
ago, not that I am saying you were, but I see you might be having some
difficulty raising your game. Its already there baby, I see it, I smell
it, and I can almost taste it. But what do I know.

I
love you. I have always loved you. I think of you
even before I open my eyes in the morning. My life is now
all about you. Yeah right. Do you know when the last time
I felt like that for someone, a long-long time. I noticed
lots of couples today out in the street. Whatever. It was
a nice day today. Yet I still walked around with this empty
feeling, like I failed at something. Could it be because
we didn’t make the play offs because of stupid reasons?
We should have made it and we didn’t. I feel like a
Dumb Ass.
*
Here
is and entry I wrote the day after Rumble fish lost the play off spot.
I didn’t post it up because I didn’t want to jump the gun
and assume anything to the world yet.
Oh well…Marcus played and won his match lovely, 4 to 1; the other
guy thought it must have been pallid boy day; (True Romance). Now Spencer
put up, he put up himself up. Captain Spencer’s team was up against
the ropes, and like a good captain he put himself up to reset the tone
for his seemingly failing team, then I put Vinny, 20-year veteran of
the game of pool. Talks like a grand champ of pool, on some occasions
of his game playing he would look up to the sky and ask his poor dead
pappy what should I do know father? What should I do? Brian is always
making pretext for Vinny, he loves Vinny, he never slams Vinny he thinks
Vinny is one of the best pool players ever. Too bad Vinny does not think
the same way about Brian’s game, but Brian does not mind that Vinny
sees him as a “needs a lot help” pool player. Maybe Vinny
and Brian can one day put together there own Earl Stricklinesk kind of
team. Vinny
lost to Spencer. 4 to1. Then he left right after he lost. Yup, Vinny
loses his match then he leaves. Vinny played Spencer and then he loses
to Spencer then he leaves. Vinny leaves right after he loses as if the
lost is going to disappear or something. As if the game had no consequence
as if this is what you do when you lose. Why do players do that? Why
do they leave after they lose a match? Don’t you know you are on
a team? Don’t you know that if you leave you weaken the team some
more after you cost them a point? What if you have to coach or help your
following teammate on the table? Don’t you know when you lose the
team loses as well. don’t you know when you win the team wins.
So you leave, I hate that. I really really, really hate that, I hate
that so much; I also hate hating. The numbers are going too be to high
on the team now as I am likely to go up to a five. I am going to have
to make changes on the team. Douglas has good ideas about how to handle
the team. Bring back Victoria get a two and tell some of the players
to take a season off. Not a bad idea. Any way, after Vinny got schooled
by Captain Spencer, after Spencer put him back in the fish bowl after
the Captain of Team Anatomia Took my champion and showed him what it
means to play “the amazing Spencer-Man”. I put myself up.
I prevailed, 3 zip; the game was like exhibition. There was about 20
people watching execute this poor guy who had no idea of the rage sitting
inside me about our obvious loss for the season. Molly was
their watching and rooting me on. My attitude for the match was like “let
me show you what an angry captain does when his team is down for the
season”. There was one inning in the first game two innings for
the second game and then I broke and ran the last game. I think there
were 3 innings for the whole match. Whatever. It was a futile win. But
I considered necessary to preserve the Name Rumble Fish. Then I wanted
to put up Aaron, but at the last second Brian said put me up, he had
his peculiar logic as usual so I did; I should of put up Aaron oh well.
At least I will still have Douglas for next season. I will talk to Aaron
and Marcus for some ideas on how to handle the team for next season.
But that was the last time I am going to tolerate what happened. Rumble
fish will not have dead fish floating on the top or bottom of its lake.

Incentive,
this is the power of drive….
This thing called incentive can influence any out come in the game of
pool. Incentive is what I am lacking for my failing team.

April
30 May 1 2004.
It was a busy day for me at work. I was very beat. Aaron called to hang. So later
we met up at the pool hall. I walked in and saw Vic standing there, so I instinctively
said was-up. I was happy to see her but at the same time a little uneasy. im
so bored with fighting with this girl already, there no need anymore she lives
some what of a difficult life already why make it more difficult for her William.

I
ended the month with having dinner with Aaron Vic
and Claudio. Claudio almost fell down
on the train. It would have been a wipe out if
I didn’t catch him. After dinner, it got
a little mopey it might have been the food or maybe
there was still a sorness from the previous weeks,
what ever. As we were deciding what are next move
was we saw what seemingly was a dead body on the
street, Vic Says "he dont look so good Will,
should we check?". I was freaked out i know
Vic has a good sense for these things, and that
made me even more nervous. An ambulance came and
we watched to see if the dude was dead. After that
we all went our separate ways. I was going to go
home but before I did I had to make a drop off
at the E-bar.
|
I
made my delivery and to my astonishment Jason Cane
was there. I played him. It was a good
game. Off course Jason won and then won about eight
more matches after that with other APA walk-ins.
|
|
|
Except
for Stacy. She walked like Dudly Moor,
drunk as a skunk, holding a Vodka Stolie in one
hand and wearing stelletto heels and a tight mini
she beat Jason after his millon man defeat. Mind
you Jason was a bit on the Drunk side as well.
Not that I am making an excuse for Jason, but then
again Jason is an open player and stacy is just
a hoty walkin who like to play pool at E bar, taking
down a grand champion of New York City does make
you think about how pool can work sometimes. Stacy
has got game, she really needs to be a Rumblefish.
