So the real good guys,Willie,Ralph,Artie,Grady,Billy,Ronnie had a choice around their 16-17 birthday.Take that day job or sleep in and play/work at the pool hall at night making 3 times as much the way they want to live[gamblin].Cool.Now the tournaments come and in the 80's when most of this shit started only the top 5-6 guys can make a livin.I heard Jimmy Reid call it chemical warfare.If 50 guys are playing nine -ball,I'm pretty sure 25 are gonna lose for starters if my math is correct. So what do the other 25 guys do?Give up their game?Quit?Get a job?Nope,their outlaws too and their gonna gamble another way,so they look around and see one of the worlds oldest professions right there for the takin.Hard to change ways after 20-30 years of hustlin at night right?So of course some are gonna lose and some are gonna win like any game.Everyone here can judge a mans game,but no one here can judge his lifestyle.Just be glad who you are and know theres lots of guys doing better than you and lots of guys doing time and lots of guys should be doing time and aren't.Aint nothin wrong with Bob Mitchum,John DeLorean David Crosby or the above mentioned that we cant say a good word about.Lots of parts to play on this stage we call home.Welcome,take off yer shoes,showando as Louie would say,cheers,Bob
