R RV Resort I’m Mike sheldone this my father Lou and you are watching the BBN [Music] first up on court one we got Four Courts here uh 60 foot stone dust courts we have uh fairly local matchup between Dino franceski and and Joe Priti of the Waterside Club in Waterside New York or Phoenix New York sorry and uh they’re playing against one of the home teams here Randy Bower and Joe pelino and it looks like camera over there is a little bit crooked so I’ll fix that going to be battling the sun today um we hope yeah better than battling the rain I’m going to see if I can let’s see okay not that dark off no no oh that didn’t do much to that fairly overcast day actually um well really overcast not uh not too sunny the courts are not covered this game is 8-2 right now this is the second round uh in the Winner’s bracket Dino and Joe had a buy and they’re playing against Randy and the other Joe who beat us uh 16 to 15 in the first round at what point do we just accept that we suck dad never they had us 12 to four we brought it back we were 15 to 12 and then had a really yeah with chances to go up had a really bad frame oh there’s always chances had a really bad frame and then uh 1515 and then last frame was a crapshoot on the backboard and they won we are playing backboard live games of 16 double elimination old school New York buch green and red balls I am trying to get our scoreboard up there we go let’s see who’s what color dad oh uh green the water side’s green water side’s green and they’re leading score is what it’s now up to 8 to three to three yeah sorry we were a couple minutes late uh with the start today but like I said we had a uh battle yeah wait that was a long game that was a good hour and a half at least you are see what kind of range we got with our cameras today well the court it’s not easy to see um oops there’s dog Hammond good ball from the another the lines here are not the easiest to find the court is uh little bit unpredictable to say the least yeah you could roll you could roll two balls from the same spot with the same speed and one will go left one would go right see we can get a little better look at the surface if you rolled the third ball it’ go straight real challenge I like these chords Joe pelino it’s could be a four ball was or three ball waster from Dino uh let me see so three balls back for water side wide right I’m gonna have to fix that camera wide left did you find as the shooter in our game that you had to land it in a particular spot nope no just blasted right through as a roller I felt like I had to land it in a particular spot I couldn’t just roll it had to kind of throw it out a little bit oh three balls back for water side nothing doing 9 to3 see if I can see if I can fix this camera now it’s 8 to four huh oh yeah yeah Joe rolled in a beautiful point there at the end well you get to see me on screen trying to fix the camera so Dino’s ball goes off one side you can pretend we’re on a boat that one’s going to come in nicely I believe what might not have reached what I thought you’d want to see what the camera looked like what the view looked like I was trying not to disturb the folks at home it’s a little better right yeah I think it’s much better that’s I wonder if uh is the score hole bracket being updated do you know I will check see if we can get a look at the brackets for [Applause] you nice shot Joe a lot of body language in that what you see behind looks like AAL roof but it’s no free ads dead the building you see behind us there is get a better look at it after this Frame it’s the clubhouse uh we are on a golf course the top of a hill somewhere between Rochester there in Buffalo kind of uh no man’s land out here beautiful area though beautiful part of the state yeah scor Holio they’ve uh the brackets been updated but the scoreboard are not that’s okay if we can view the brackets we go this is Joe Priti very nicely done yeah Dino and Joe are playing very well you know we’ve said you know we usually say at some point in a in a broadcast that you have to adapt to the court conditions and this these particular courts are a true test of that down to four short Paulino from Dino look like our cameras are adjusting a little bit um they see some darker clouds on the horizon may have to pull out the put some umbrellas over the cameras uh rained a little bit during our first game we had to run around and put some bags over cameras and Wi-Fi extenders and stuff yeah is that Thunder either that or we’re near an airport and that’s a jet being revved up two balls down for Waterside one good ball goes a long way here yeah just like two frames ago Joe was uh Joe pelino put in the last ball before that they were they were not in a good position and that saved them 20 teams here we got New York of course sorry about that want to tell the folks where everybody’s from Dad yeah we got a couple teams from Toronto we’ve got well like you said all around New York State I don’t know if is there anywhere else I don’t know what I don’t think so I don’t think so either see senica Falls I see uh Rome represented Saratoga Springs Lockport Holly uh the Waterside club Phoenix New York um wherever Andy Sweeney is from I don’t know the gallano club and the tokal club and Rochester a worldly man Paulino is right there wow yeah they’re playing very well didn’t come out off the board very much at all now the sideboards uh I think we noticed the sideboards don’t really play a whole lot I mean you can make it come off maybe a foot maybe 2 feet if you try hard backboards on the other hand uh they can come off quite a bit depending on of course where you hit them you can see the take a bit of a look at our surrounding you see the not so friendly clouds yeah in the distance uh four quarts see the other four quarts and that is the 10th hole over there it’s a par three our Toronto friends over on the left the uh practice green over here to the right of the courts and as we swing it all the way around there’s the clubhouse in our booth our home for the day the Breeze is picking up a little bit too last ball coming for Dino and Joe Randy and gel peligrino are going to have two balls back and one point sitting there yeah that’s thunder that’s rolling thunder still just one Paulino is uh oh ry’s gonna shoot the green ball for three potentially four yeah potentially four no it jumped to the right when it landed you really have to pick where you’re going to land the ball here I dis I think you just got to throw it hard enough well true yeah if you throw through the through the hills and dals they’re watching gu Lake we’re being told the weather’s going the other way uh I don’t believe it if you’re on a boat on Lake Ontario uh it’s coming your way that’s that’s what we’re told these are uh the kind of Courts I think where people talk to their balls a lot after they’ve thrown them yeah a lot of a lot of steering going on yeah a lot of body language leaning gentlemen who’s closer up there okay you can say that all day well es look that one goes left one goes right I assume that Andy knows the roles here so when uh I just paid attention to him when we played against him who Randy so water side guys we’ll have the last ball of the frame green smiling he’s got the body language all the way down the court Jo’s got a tough ask here beat a point like that on this court a little bit short 126 take a look at our brackets so I can see we’re at the top of the bracket here uh winner this we’ll Advance the face Rick and dog from Lockport yep already got four of our final I can’t count four of our final eight undefeated Set uh I will post a link to this in the chat so that you guys can take a look for yourselves that rain I hear crackling I don’t see any drops on the uh on the wood in front of us what that noise sprinkling a little bit I have to need to cover the cameras yeah I am G to go get [Music] yeah they’re they’re okay for now rain stopping in 17 minutes says my phone and then again on and off all day yeah well there was a Plan B if it looked like rain uh this tournament was going to be held at the SMS in sanica Falls which it dead look like rain we still went with plan a yes you see what you want to see sometimes it’ll be interesting long as we get our cameras and Equipment safely covered we should have uh some interesting rain games the broadcast in the past when we’ve been here we’ve baked Under the Sun all day don’t don’t mind I I enjoy the elements playing in the elements this is uh how tournaments used to be right yeah yeah what I was saying earlier about the courts um that’s what I like about him I like the challenge should have had him dad had our chances yeah we certainly did so it’s a great comeback yeah whatever home team is out of balls not a whole lot of room here the ball’s I think there’s a ridge right about there on the court this ball I believe is going to break to the right of your screen pretty straight a little bit to the right yeah he kind of rode the ridge this ball is going to break to the right it’s not going to get over there he switched over to the wrong side of the ridge Dino’s in a better spot here if he rolls it straight it should tuck in towards Paulino I think he’s got it nice I see the first umbrella is coming out 14 to7 hey Pete how you doing thank you for liking folks if you haven’t done your your daily your broadcast Duty please click that thumbs up button for us thank you too early there is no Paulino sideboard rule for the poino uh is there a a backboard rule there is it’s the uh pointing line they’re playing one poino toss poos are very big and very heavy don’t know if you can hear that that was a pretty significant uh Roar of Thunder one more ball for Randy and Joe and uh things are looking Bleak at the moment but it only takes one ball that’s right it’s gone and two more balls for Joe and this should be game right on the red one wow there it is so Dino franceski and Joe Priti advancing 16-7 over Randy BAU and Joe pelino let’s see uh that’ll set them up for a matchup against Rick Mullen and Doug Hammond are Lockport friends up at the top of the bracket there I imagine after uh these other winners bracket game finished they’ll probably go to the losers bracket Zach playing right now no could you and Jake set up to umbrellas over the cameras please thank you he said he had a couple so as we go down the bracket Jake Bower and Ryan omara another home team here from the Holly Bachi Club advancing over Mario scalla Etso kroi Zach and S Father and Son team son and father another home team set that’s a holly versus Holly matchup Andy Sweeney the panel has won a game defeating Pat pean and Chessie paloi oh really 16 to n in the first round and as you can see uh Aaron Bower another Bower and Keith loots Bill Barett is playing against Brandon and Shawn bill and his son Owen that game is four to three pretty early see if we can it’s nice to see some fatherson teams here there’s there’s probably there’s at least like five of them right at least five yeah so losers bracket lower bracket as score Holio says lower bracket okay we’re not losers we’re just lower speaking of a Father’s son I see eto’s son here luano waiting in the wings he’s two and a half it does r there’s there’s two umbrellas uh they’re setting that’s actually it’s pretty smart just put it in the rain collector I’m sure they got them but they’re really messing up my rain collector the Water Bunk are you on TV no but the Thunder is thund there is the rest of the losers bracket yes we do sell BBN shirts go uh check out our website bbc. Network we got some merch and goodies and whatnot on there it’s bot broadcast. Network well that’s not blocking the camera at all is it no it’s perfect thank you might be just in time it’s coming down now just in time [Applause] not a not a moment too soon see the rain has started to fall and this will make for some interesting Bachi games there’s an exodus to the parking lot thank you to our and to the canopies our gracious gracious hosts Jake Bower and Zack DeLuca saving my cameras we will have another game up shortly I think uh just kind of scrambling to to uh deal with the rain perfect thank you guys thank you well Dad there’s about 30 different weather weather weathermen or weather people here yeah everybody’s got it’s just going to blow over it’s just going over the lake in the meantime the courts are getting watered [Applause] I’m looking forward to playing in the rain very relaxing environment here it is the game is kind of up whenever somebody will call the game eventually we are uh kind of just hanging out on the lawn today especially after after losing our first game over on court four we have Toronto versus the uh Teenage heartthrob Nico Fox it’s Nico niik Fox playing with his father Fred versus Val palota and Matt Lipa that game is 1411 that was a green ball thrown by Fred so um it’s like Fred and Nico are winning that game 1411 we play the loser there what inv to take in what in the fruit nice bowl of fruit basket yeah a little fruit behind us there it is that’s nice nice very gracious hosts and the rain has died down considerably stepping on to court one we have Etso kroi and Mario Scala brother of natal son of felich versus team that I’m not familiar with Jeremy and Devin Decker must be a local team well traveled though one has a Colorado shirt one has a Myrtle Beach shirt or hoodie and just like that the rain is done that was a new uh approach there for Mario not sure I’ve seen that before what the way he shot you mean yeah iio of course son of Ugo in whose honor this tournament is held eighth annual believe this is our second one that we’ve been to it’s my third is it your third yeah I think I went to the first one with Fury oh yeah yeah hey fii if you’re watching be nice to have you out here we’re going to have one more practice frame and then we will get underway with our game uh reset our scoreboard it’s raining again good thing it’s coming straight down yes true [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] okay I don’t know if they’re live right now these still might be practice shots I’m not sure that was a miss right between the two red ones oh what a nice ball yeah this is just practice okay we have a delay of this game because nobody’s got a coin a coin has been found flipped called shaking hands beginning of the game so this is uh Jeremy and Devin Decker rolling up and here’s Etso looks like he’s in [Applause] there oh the rain is coming down now it’s going to be fun Michael it is going to be fun it’s the first first frame yes yeah it’s raining pretty good now it’s a good thing we’re all Hardy Northerners going to be an interesting day of buch Billy bar how you doing bill not very good okay I won’t ask anything else this is Mario’s ball ball tailing off a little to the left that is a tough spot on the court there’s a bit of a ridge there I think you really got to start it um kind of towards the green ball pretty straight towards the green ball I was going to say you start in a corner and go on an angle no to the left of Paulino no I think so uh no I say no I say that’s how you do it that was a good line yeah that’s exactly what I said I think mine’s a good line too I I think your line I think it’s possible I think that’s a lot oops sorry no I remember from last night I tried it there and it worked yeah yeah I think that’s a harder line maybe what you’re describing cuz it falls it wants to fall to the right there yes but if you cross over it’s going to go left correct okay so why not just throw it straight where you know well cuz if you could cross over there too anyway you could tell that there’s a lot of discussion about where to throw a ball from on these courts [Applause] yeah there is some I changed um the way that I normally roll I uh it’s rolling much more upright and kind of tossing the ball out a little bit yeah you have to toss it out cuz you roll normally try and you know put it in front of you the court just eats it up just kills it ball doesn’t want to get there interesting shot there yeah missed it a little bit with the camera what just happened uh hit his own Ball but moved it up the ball that he shot moved up and made the point or no made a decent point but it’s not the point I think he was shooting that red ball I got my colors wrong on the scoreboard yeah I hear discussions about rain gear I didn’t bring any rain gear did you um just this Fel there might be an umbrella in the car good hit by Etso made a little room uh not sure what else you wanted there there’s a sunshine along with the raindrops seems like a lot of our conversation today is going to be Revol around the weather three to two it’s sunny and rainy we used to call those Sun showers mhm I can see why Mario dust himself off what’s that we’re up okay want to fill in right now it’s early in the tournament you know yeah can who who are we playing who won Nico or the Toronto guys or Toronto okay Nico Nico can uh where’s Nico want me to find him Dino can too oh yeah true want me want me to find Dino Nico yeah hold on a minute you don’t mind we had too many volunteers yeah I’m going to guess somebody who’s done it before talking about sports things okay Nico’s we got to go play Nico is gonna I’m assuming he accepts our uh he obliges our request but GNA get your broadcast team in here don’t go nowhere might be muted for uh a minute but we’ll be right back thank you e e okay I might as well do my job while I’m waiting last ball the frame coming for Jeremy and Devin and uh Mario says he thinks it’s just one should be plenty of room fio there’s one think the rain might have helped the courts a little B but it’s at least three three is the call not going to measure I’ll have a three-point frame to start it off marioa ETO after a three-point frame for dein and Jeremy to start off Mario have scored seven in a row you want it yeah e e e take I gotta say hi to Pete Dino’s in here he GNA take over for me in the booth say hi Dino he everyone uh don’t yell at me go ahead Mike uh I’m gonna go play I just wanted to say hi to Pete hi Pete Nice to Pete Russo glad to see you back on the courts and I hope you’re hope you’re starting to feel healthy again so thanks for tuning in I’ll see you soon I hope M that first ball was played by Mario and he’s uh he’s sitting just there off the wall here we go this is Devon 103 you want to do that score that right right yeah the scoreboard right Nice Shot there from Jeremy Off the Wall hey Nico what’s up brother how’s it going Dino good good did you get your lunch yeah I just inhaled it okay you and I both might sitting to the left uh we have Mar onio playing uh Jeremy and Devon where are Jeremy and Evan from Lockport I believe so local here to the west side of New York Mario and Etso from here in Rochester right just got a little bit of a storm a second ago a little rain did you play your first game yet yeah we played two two and 0 so far good good they going to try to get the sight that’s the starting to rain again here yeah they’re trying to decide whether or not the ball can slip between the the sideboard and uh the opponent it can yeah I think so too but it should kick it out looks like he’s going to try to a little early and oh what a shot yeah nice shot I have a replay button here if you want to see it [Applause] back to the GRE comes Jeremy I think he’s got to try to do the same thing oh he’s going a little firmer he missed it wow my bad my bad sorry about that jents I I I I like just being firm like Etso did there I didn’t really like the shoot call there that’s what I liked right there that’s right she made the point I think eto’s got to do the same thing it’s interesting being a rookie on the broadcast here it’s better to watch the game through the monitor than it is to watch the game live yeah yeah you have to pretty much uh ignore the life play yep oh bad luck gives up two two green it’s hard to get the pollino long here I haven’t seen many people be able to toss past the red line just on a normal poino throw normally it’s in between there very slow courts we had uh Randy a b and at Joe our first game and uh that’s Randy was able to get it there but then again you least there’s his home parts that’s a great ball by Mario he on that I’m I think she’s going roll straight at it from there maybe he’ll pull in little long come on all right hey come on man need no we need two here let’s go come on there’s so much room there’s a good ball from Jeremy I think absolutely I think it stayed in that’s a good ball once you get later into the games here you you start rolling into divots and it’ll take it one way that’s right happened to us well I’ll tell you my first experience on these courts uh very inconsistent uh one ball I put close the next ball three feet short 5et short that’s a great ball wow but you know you have to adjust right yeah doesn’t matter what where the courts are I’m a little biased I’m coming off the synthetics at Water side it’s everything is Top Notch over there with those it’s almost wherever you go it’s getting worse unless you’re going to like lainos or moani all the indoor places right yeah the platel little heavy M it’s another one uh maybe that’s going to be close let’s see if we can see it tough to see from here oh well it was the last ball I don’t know I don’t mind shooting it get get two then you could roll in for three but he’s going to play off his own ball tough going to say see how difficult that is right I like shooting it yeah he was looking to play off his own ball right yeah but when you roll on these you don’t know you hit once you hit the dirt you don’t know which way it’s going to go it’s really hard to keep straight especially with those little divits yeah yeah he’s going to shoot it now I don’t mind it what a shot only two though so look at the 125 [Applause] score comes Mario rolling in little long two three feet it’s not easy to beat though you have to have perfect speed comes Jeremy yeah that’s a good one it’s a really good ball Mario’s going to roll straight at it like he did the first time let’s see if it speeds better oh got to go looks close I think it might be in it’s definitely close going to have to measure I think any tournaments on the agenda coming up here uh next month or so um molani in two weeks are you going to play over there Mechanicsville uh no there’s a big there’s a they do a fundraising coad tournament that’s really good time at our place so 60 something teams 64 teams oh that’s nice yeah it’s one of the biggest ones good fundraiser who’s the fundraiser for Nikki Linda bles oh yeah sure absolutely beautiful tournament very nice baskets got a chance Falls to right to the wall wow so Devon and Jeremy down to their last ball oh wow that one didn’t break for him I think that still doesn’t like like to straight up line that Mario tuck I don’t know I think it’s going to fall right to the wall oh long right idea though yeah I actually stayed I don’t know if he was if he had perfect speed where it would go though Falls right to the wall short one time for marioo 13 to five they’re in a good spot here couple more two three good frames and they should win the game but only takes one big frame for Jeremy and Devon to get right back in it short that’s that ball here four-footer right this is the opening that Jeremy and Devon needed here and he beats it still a lot of room though see what he got over on court number two uh Billy Barnett over there with his son I don’t know who won I think yeah I Billy Billy Barnett lost to uh Brandon and Sean tried bumping it I don’t know if it got enough I think it did but the Canadians valves over there with Matt Lua and uh playing Randy and uh uh Joe no not no they’re playing Lu and oh oh they’re over at core 4 right they’re playing bbn’s own Lu and that’s right I see it now my bad yeah Michael just we just got done playing Mike and Val they played [Applause] well starting the rain again um he’s got to put a good ball in here to keep the game alive oh God think eto’s just got to roll on those balls and I think it’s [Applause] over Hood no hood it’s starting to come down now right that’s all needed should be three that’s game that is game ladies and gentlemen so it is raining here in h for those of you not familiar Holly is uh little North Northeast of Buffalo a bit uh Northwest of Rochester game over on court two court three we have looks like Jeff mckenny I me Jeff Kenny and Bill Kenny versus Randy and I don’t know who Randy’s Joe Joe is his partner and then on court four we have Michael Lou versus Matt and then Matt and B up at the Tron p extrem uh I heard you went to the doubles there how’d you like the courts I did uh good good I uh fast you know fast super fast did you get put on court four at all though I went all the way to the right three three games three other four games on court for that is unfortunate yeah it was uh played well we won our our first game and uh tapped out after that but the nice thing about the club a lot of B you play before a lot of B you play after obviously you want to advance tournament but then right down the street about a mile away they have rainbow Creek is a oh beautiful I actually really really liked those courts I thought they were perfect speed absolutely rainbow Creek is probably a nicer uh nicer quarts no disrespected no what are you going to do Chacho’s had the same quarts since right since they first open so I played a lot of B over at uh grand ball Creek I wonder if they’ll put another game off their wait I guess that they’re going to wait I’m not sure hopefully this will pass by cuz it’s starting to come down pretty good as you guys can see the court starting to get darker I don’t want to put new names in there yet because I don’t know right right I think I’m going to uh I get a little my lunch in sitting on the table I’m going to put my headphone down for a second you good chat they have they have something I I don’t should we risk it we could flip a coin to see if the the button says waiting means that right I want to try it yeah well if it doesn’t work we need to go back to the game right why not yeah it’s got to work oh maybe maybe we could do a different game yeah maybe we do a little bit of different game we see what’s going on here it’s hard to see yeah I don’t know which color is which the lighting’s terrible right now the way the sun is on the cameras I we give you a better view of the who’s what color are they they’re green so can’t see the score either and these B courts are located in a in a country club with a golf course yeah it’s nice nice nice course so you look if you look up underneath the names Mario and let and you’ll see a t box for the go uh Randy and his partner Joe are green and the brothers Jeff and Bill are red not sure what the score is I can’t see it looks like green might have two right now maybe one I’m looking at a uh score of eight green two red and then on court number four it’s five nothing I have to mute real quick it’s my brother what’s up I did must have been on yeah I know all right have a go bye what no I’m good is there oh not on here it’s like might be up there so oh yeah it’s the it’s it’s like you got to twist these or something but if you put your headset up here they can’t hear you you are you’re you’re getting TV right now what’s the score 9 to2 green which is Randy trying to uh yeah it looks like they’re going to eat can’t really tell who’s in over there maybe red

putt oh jeez I don’t know if I can get it that far over oh he just missed he just missed it it’s in it’s in the hole [Laughter] Richie oh missed it that’s too funny I think we caught it bad camera work they got the practice frame here yeah so that was a Joe Freddy just up up yeah I’m going to play with the over mechanic should be a good game rain stopped right yep little chilly though temperature dropped see if we can’t get your score on the uh Johnny Rod just H his ball before it stop so it looks like Val and match are sitting at eight and Lou and Michael are sitting at three yeah eight three what time did you have to wake up to get here 4:30 4:30 how long’s the ride it’s about two hours I wanted to get here just uh a bit early to practice practice a little bit so uh we left around 6 right that’s what that’s what I did got here around 8:30ish Yeah we actually made up some good time 8:15 maybe got something to you want me to call it on my phone oh it’s cold man your color pick your uh whatever they gave us 15 so 15 points that’s impressive a shut okay let’s see if we have the camera set I don’t know if it made it what color are they please be green yes oh what a ball right Mario way short way short seven footer for Mario that’s that first frame right did they go up and down yep yeah they did 8 footer from see if this one’s better always the second ball always Johnny’s just got to make a nice hit here and he should be able to stick around for two missed it that’s yo he shot the ball backwards that’s not his role he hit the ball on the backside so that’s not his first ball trust me johnny makes a hit uh’s got to make two hits for a big fr here’s a shot he should be shooting right yeah two shots I think I agree I agree Big Frame makes it sticks it rinse and repeat will’ll be four oh Replay that oh we missed it comes Diane with a roll looks a little heavy maybe L on it right on it oh what a ball not an easy hit now oh it’s freezing one right that’s got to make a hit here yeah he’s got to shiot he’s got to shot it’s not easy though pauling’s Ping’s right there well the the second ball’s in it’s ping oh gives up one one for where you parked not sure no I was going to say you could uh I text my dad to bring the hoodie we don’t play for a while I don’t think yeah I’m not sure when we would play either I did not bring a pair of pants which I probably saying that’s a nice ball sit about a foot yeah it’s a paulino’s buried in a little uh Gravel Pit there on the it’s hard to move the Pino I don’t know I think they got to be firm at it yeah that’s sure I think Johnny could sit too here if he makes a soft little Spock maybe I don’t I’m guessing he’s going to go soft but he’d also uh not soft enough he’s got to make sure the uh the red ball yeah no I pushes out deep there’s a lot of gravel over there on that sideboard D’s going y uhoh what a shot oh well done what a shot sorry about the wind guys probably sounds pretty annoying can’t can’t control it comes ETO oh missed it by mile surprised I thought he was just going to try to go under the board be a little softer I think he uh had that in mind and uh his shot drifted to his left yeah well interest H it’s going to be hard to beat now oh there see uh oh my God they can move it no maybe I don’t think so must have dropped 15 degrees in the past 15 minutes oh easily maybe more Goosebumps yeah I agree this is brutal who the heck picked this weather is it supposed to rain anymore I’m going to go grab my hoodie after this all right uh let’s see City one green and uh J Rod is uh has ball in hand uh with a second one as well so he’s got two balls back look like he line up to shoot oh what a shot what a shot let’s see if I caught that on a replay that’s one for the Highlight Reel that all set too PR it’s pretty good from Diane right straight down the center it’s about two two and a half ft uh should be an opening there for uh Mario to to tuck one in okay short he’s not happy with that I am back it’s Mario gets it second ball every time second ball see if Johnny can make a hit here oh CAU is a bad break makes a great hit Doo is going to grab his hoodie now it is extremely cold now here comes Diane oh what a ball oh he’s not doing the cameras sorry sorry guys how many people we got in 23 comes that get the point what a ball can’t be short see what that se’s doing here they rolling again what a ball poo didn’t even leave the frame oh you had pants too lucky thanks for holding the fort down there Mr ni that’s a good ball right there she’s pointing in little good ball though oh what’s did they get two two three to two here see Bill and his son are in a dog fight with the waterite team on court number two 88 88 Court 3 it’s uh 129 Randy and Joe and then Court 4 11 six Matt and uh F over Mike and Lou I mean it was warmer at 8:30 in the morning it was yeah I think we just need that Su poke back out it’s the win twoo right what’s it look like the rest of the afternoon for the forecast I’m going to check cloudy rainy at 4 it is not 78 yeah no I agree we’re getting looks like we’re getting missed though right oh what the heck not what mine says just look like they’re waiting for Johnny yeah rain delayed he went to get his uh rain gear on nope how’s your game [Applause] going all right it looks like Johnny might do something or not right she going roll he’s instructing oh this is brutal now it’s starting to rain it’s interesting too because it in both both instances I I thought they would have the better play was would have shot that red ball out right from ball number one yeah short right right he’s going to they’re going to burn four balls so that’s a tough Point uh on these courts Mario Ando sitting back with three balls right yeah [Applause] that up [Applause] four times that’s it Mario show him the linee and Etsy back their way up 6 to three Mario to three Mario Etso yeah this is unfortunate the rain and the coldness a one challenge to have with the uh Outdoors Outdoors uh without the Pavilion no cover no cover you run that risk of uh never knowing the I guess they said the last 5 years it’s only not rained once is that right I last weekend it was perfect I think that was a beautiful ball Dian just oh j r no not me [Applause] that’s the ball caught the clipped the Paulino pushed it roll oh huged the rail let’s see if he tries that again [Applause] not pleasant huh how much rain is coming to the back side maybe want to not sure are we getting hit oh just keep keep an eye on the back side of the equipment oh we’re getting soaked yeah let’s pull the table towards us there you go this way that way yep yep how’s that should be better [Applause] your can’t tell if that’s nine or [Applause] eight n [Applause] how am I getting wet [Applause] [Music] [Applause] all right it is now extremely difficult to hit and point I don’t know where I’m getting hit from with the water yeah I think we have everything dry dry you try shot hopefully I’ll let up here in just a bit one for green nine to four that’s and Mario back of this sweat no not bad that’s good all right a little technical uh adjustment here on the booth rain coming down we’re trying to keep our equipment dry we’re back I want to apologize for the delay in the broadcast but we are back who says you can’t broadcast the B game in the rain right I think it’s starting to slow down a little hopefully that was unfortunate for everyone playing during that sucks yeah can I slow down the courts a bit slow them down now you’re freezing yeah I’m cold in here oh good ball from Etso looks like they switched comes Johnny with a shot poo didn’t go all the way down com attio I’m getting hit from something sorry look it down there threw a good ball in there comes Diane no good to the sideb way short good ball from uh ETO I mean Mario oh what’s going on what just happened all right how many did they get no way they got one 10 10 to four is the score right now 10 to four 10 to four comes Diane the roll got the point good ball Zio good ball oh no good green in still close games right across the board right yeah I mean Mike and L gam been going on for a pretty long time and they’re sitting uh 14 14 to9 Bale and uh Matt Randy and Joe seems like they’re they’re ahead 1312 oh that’s that game’s got close then and then Justin and Joe playing bill and his son oh it’s the 13313 that’s a good game that looks short and back to our featured game our host iio with Mario sitting at 10 and Jay Rod and Diane sitting at four it actually warmed back up in my opinion oh the rain stopped the wind stopped as well knock on W they can only see that we’re sitting underneath the tent with umbrellas covering the equipment we’re shuffling over here trying to keep everything dry that’s funny actually it’s not funny but it’s doing a good job I think right in the meantime Michael and Lou are on the court plane so we going to make sure all the equipment is dry when gets back let’s see what that looking to do he’s shooting green nice Johnny’s just got to hit the Pauline for four oh perfect absolutely here here you go brother [Laughter] oh got we not going to talk about the game we’re going to talk about life oh talk about little church too no don’t need to do this comes Johnny Rod maybe a shot I I’ll do it I’ll do it be no fall language I promise oh he missed it what do I got do nothing here just say what’s up or something they could hear you now hey folks this is all Andrew Sweeney from the panel has spoken here today down here in um makes the best

Bernett over there on cork to H balls as usual comes ATO looks like a be you forget me what a ball comes Johnny Johnny’s GNA have to make a hit here Johnny Rod my Rome buddy he’s a legend of the game he simmered down as drinking today he’s only had uh five1 he’s had about five or six wi what a shot stays up with it sorry there it is he stuck the ball guys still got it for 75 years old uh maybe I’m a little short maybe 78 I’m the fourth I’m lead off Johnny R doesn’t like hitting this ball I actually like hitting this oh she beat it wow nice ball day might not be it might be a little short oh it’s a little short C it look good from here oh Pete Russo said something he might have said something to you oh wa never mind well hey Z body seen the unit lately he hasn’t been around in a while poor kid uh maybe he’s in Russia uh getting some uh cooking recipes guy’s a hell of a cook I heard but uh you know what’s his record against you he’s about 2 and 15 against me head tohe um many years of playing against them uh strugles he’s a good pointer but um that’s about it comes thato what was he trying there Volo Paulino I go to the bathroom where’s Dino well folks I’m going to sign out here uh like I said the conditions are tough got to play ni going a little bit here I’ve got a nice winning record against Andy yeah he’s another guy that’s about two and 15 against me but only played him

of eight years what a shot from Tony Rod hit stuck it here comes three again [Applause] so what do you think’s going to happen they cancel it or move it I told him at this point he should probably think about making them move because that front coming in from the Buffalo area doesn’t look good little purple in there yeah I think that’s going to settle over us for a little while someone phone’s going to die I’m not sure who this is well Mario what’s the score 125 125 like Mario yeah no doubt we got a good ball from uh ETO oh oh comes Johnny rad makes a hit has another sip of wine he’s only had what six or seven today so far the last hour it’s 130 seven Wines in comes Diane she’s not rolling bad today little little heavy there three foter my’s going to have to who’s rolling Mar was roll have you played at SMS yes yeah a couple of times that’s a good ball see the form that kid has yeah very nice about a finger roll Andy sweey lasted about 5 minutes in the booth that’s not a good shot there needed to touch a little higher there yeah his sweatshirt says world’s greatest bot player on it yeah he don’t know if it’s Saturday or the 4th of July he’s soaked comes Dian oh little long didn’t get on the wall where she wanted um is there any way they can get four I think eto’s going to try it hit and stick two hit and sticks nope got Point looks like they’re just going to take three oh the form impeccable three times what do you think of the setup back here nice is this your first time playing here here yes I wish I could have played some golf but I got a little putting in yeah we got to we move the stream to Andy’s 30-footer yeah every blind squirel finds it not once in a while live in the short game right now what are they doing alternating balls they have been I still got mad that he wasn’t poting good man M can Lou have had two Barn burners joh R Miss I think that red team’s got the lead there uh the Canadians yeah Matt and Val yeah comes Johnny again maybe a paulan yep oh bad break makes the hit let’s check the backboard out two greens Billy Barnett over there just out there playing all four courts in action somehow it’s getting colder again wind is picking up Richie’s ready to leave Billy shooting Arial unbelievable Mario’s got to hit this maybe stick around for two are we up soon or no I think so you just stick around once you H the sideboards on a hit kills it they only need one more Point yeah maybe this SL you’ll do it put on a sh quick hit and stick Mario’s going to do it where the bracket go they moving inside probably bracket’s right here though if you want to look what game number are we on right now 18 we’re 23 perfect one one game here and then we played one game six hours ago one two three games away Mario for the win he missed by a foot it’s almost over let’s see if Etso can put it away for the game let’s see oh pants would be awesome right now where’d your dad go sleeping yeah shocked here not sleep when you’re in the ground it’s overrated play some bot they said Mario’s Mario’s ready for this hit for game got it ball game it’s game oh help wearing any air Nico yeah I know that but this the uh the umbrella is taking all in the gear huh I know who oh no I was thinking about leaving where were you going to go 815 hicory Street all right let’s see what’s up next it might be a Winner’s game now it actually is might be us oh my God this umbrella is going to go conditions here in Holly are atrocious Andy sweee lasted about five minutes on the Stream did you guys want to interview a professional boxi player yep we got a winners here we got Dino and Joe versus Rick and Doug oh nice means we’re up soon three games out two games out one of the middle court suppos to rain while we’re playing you think or no oh be 2 to 4:30 no 1:30 what it’s 1:30 oh my God we’re been dumped on in a half hour oh from where I don’t see any bad clouds okay hey Andy Andy come here look at this not going to come up I am not playing in the porn r watch should we just get a head start to SMS probably we just play our game there come on com comment down in the chat we got anybody watching us 25 26 people oh God bless them you know where they probably are warm on their couch OU Mario anything to say after the win oh I want I want to get Richie is uh taking his talents elsewhere Beach L did you win oh how you feeling after a nice win oh dude I feel uh feel chilly coal I feel how’s the conditions here in hly New York well honestly like the last two weeks it was gorgeous especially the last two days like it was 70 75 80 mostly sunny and today I just I’m telling you it’s this tournament for some reason it’ll it’ll be sunny for 40 days straight but then the one day that it rains in between will be end this tournament so but it’s it’s all good so it’s a nice turnout everybody here is cool got some good boty going on can’t complain do you think it gets moved or no I I honestly don’t think it will I mean supposed to pour from 2:30 to 4:00 is it po oh I didn’t know that downpour I I saw on the Weather Channel app that we were supposed to get it at one and by like two it was supposed to clear up but meteorolog just uh yeah they get paid to be wrong half the time so you did say that earlier I did and I’m sticking by it it’s just the wind if the wind wasn’t here I’d be happy I mean when we first got here it was gorgeous it was hot it was like 7 with a nice breeze and then rain then Mother Nature got got upset and took over had to pee real quick still is peeing is good when do you play uh two games out two games out okay I’m going to get right on the dump the all the downpour oh okay I misunderstood what you just said thought you said something this this umbrella holding this thing is like flies away yeah that’s why I got a hat um who do we got here we got can you hold this yeah perfect uh can you give the keyboard give you the keyboard yeah got a little wet earlier thank you all righty let’s see who’s going to be who though looks like Dino is going to be red oh I don’t not want Joe versus Rick and start the games are you crazy why you warm enough well I mean I’d say just one time down that’s what I would say and I maybe I would even cut back from 16 points to 12 yeah 14 you know here put that you flip it over yeah you hold this again yep all right I’m not sure if they’re starting or they’re going back down y here comes the rain again this is brutal so what do we got here we got Rick and Doug versus Dino and Joe yep all right P peasant has I have not seen him play in a while actually of course he did seen play Andy you’re the best I hours I think he’s played one since and no they have not they’re in losers backet they’re waiting they got like the buy and the losers so they played the one game against Andy and now they’re waiting yep wow I think they might be playing now actually yep they are Court four oh hitting stick I don’t know if this is live or not maybe it is I think it is cuz they’re strategizing cuz Doug looks concerned Doug I think so yeah I think we did start here Andy Here Comes Doug I think they started and we’re live and we’re life and I think wow that’s a great ball in Doug’s determined the house kings was warm on the couch they said somebody in the chat said what it’s warm in the on the couch they’re warm yeah somebody that’s warm lucky that’s warm indoors oh what a shot Rick mullen’s got to make a sh shot here I know rolling so tough here short yeah I mean I’m not going to lie to you rolling is it’s a it’s a little bit of a challenge here I mean I I so shooting yeah no no so is shooting although I will tell you that when if you do connect those balls do they can stick especially now that rain and the oh yeah the dirt is we flip flopping but yeah pointing it’s it’s uh it’s tough cuz you think that the you have to throw harder because the the dirt is soft but then you’re throwing too hard and you have to adjust and short again it’s short even shorter yeah I’ve had a few of those today so I can’t say anything here comes Dino almost might be a good idea to playing that sideboard ball very hard yeah I don’t mind that should die before you get there sideboards here are like I think that’s what they’re doing it’s it’s so hard to play off these sideboards he didn’t even hit the sideboard he was aiming for the ball bump it up I don’t know why but I still feel like this is going to clear clear up soon I don’t know I just don’t got don’t got the hope well boys I’m going in by the bar maybe I meet some I’m not bar type guy but you’re not a bar type guy I might not be able to walk it out but it’s okay oh yeah it’s a good bino I’d really love somebody else to do this why you don’t want to do it I’m just freezing oh you I’m good that’s crazy go if you got if you want to go I’ll I’ll uh until until someone leaves me I have no problem it’s all right I’ll be all right you don’t trust me I do it’s not really difficult no it’s not two buttons and then just the scoreboards are that’s the only I’ll go into Vin Scully mode in a heartbeat Rick and Rick getting ready to shoot his next ball there is a native from oh from Lockport from Lockport sticks it sticks so yeah I mean that that goes to show he didn’t throw it hard and his ball is still in play it’s definitely a good surface to to stick some balls comes Dino Dino Pebbles with a shot and just a bad line I think I like the speed just a bad line he may have fln stoned his way in there for a point I don’t think so oh nope oh I’m up soon hopefully you’re uh two and0 right yeah we got to play Rich and Andy and Andy’s about ready to go home I’m just worried about gripping the ball when you play get so oh dude you need a rag like a like a dry one though you can’t have a wet one right that’s what I just learned yeah cuz the stones there’s like little stones that are on the B it’s in my hand back here yeah yeah that’s what happened to me I can’t believe I had it’s it’s crazy cooper cooper that’s short oh good so green Rick and Doug having a hard first two uh oh wait tell me three more hours folks will be in the sun you think so no yeah got I got the colors mixed yeah that sucks ladies and gentlemen we’ve just been informed that n Screwed Up the colors so Rick and Doug are green but it is Dino and Joe are winning one nothing yes Dino and Joe are red Rick and Doug are green so we’re just going to make a little switch Rooney there for you dra is good the what the drainage is Ian H thanks for letting the panel speak today Andrew sween’s in the house it’s all facts related um J the panel has spoken he ranks everybody all Jason wait did I think yeah and that’s wait who’s this this is Dino I need the keyboard Dino and Joe I thought I copied Dino and Joe but I didn’t thank you MH so we have Rick and Doug versus Rick and Doug Bizarro World any Seinfeld Fanatics there all right here you go take this all right what’s the score all right the score that I see is 1 to one currently Perfect all little difficulties but we’re back thank comes the ball from Joe short yeah it’s it’s tough to to uh find a line you have to create your own line oh ball in the other court what a ground ball that was and he’s out and here comes Rick just a bit outside oh man but yeah we are uh cold and Holly it’s I mean I’m not going to lie it’s not that bad it’s rain I could have brought a hoodie yes but as long as it’s not really windy I can uh I can tolerate it I don’t know the rain’s just the rain feels good to me I mean but everyone’s different I just I wasn’t I really wasn’t expecting this weather but we take what we can get you do not ever throw a fit me no you take get what you get and you don’t throw a fit you can’t throw fit no never no it’s un unbelievable if you do it’s that’d be bizarre throwing a fit oh playing botch comes a shot oh just puts it on the backboard for just a bit outside just a back board so Paulino doesn’t go but I just I like rolling well they got how many balls in the back here they got two ball three balls in the back like your phone’s at like 9% so let’s see what he oh they are going to try to shoot the pill oh I think they got one green they may have one it should be easy three unless they try to get cute here and I can’t I don’t know where the fourth red ball is so on the backboard they tried to cover oh okay so yeah you got to you got to go for Point here come to dog Hammond and he gives it to him me get out they just get respectfully give give him in the third point I like that I did that last weekend with Marco 20t to come [Applause] in I’m just I’m com a roll from uh Rick or Doug Hammond I mean what a shot it’s a great ball but yeah speaking of uh per so I’m just um I I saw uh when was it a couple weeks ago that he was playing Mar last week yeah and that just oh that put a smile on my face he’s in the chat actually Pete if you’re still here oh p is he he was Pete if you’re still here put a Pistol Pete Pete the bear was what natal calls him Pete the bear Pete the bear okay I don’t know what one thing has to do the other but yeah I don’t know he just that’s what he calls him n Pete Pete’s uh he’s he’s a really really good dude the scalas uh adore him adore him and his family we do all right so see here it’s four to one how’s your dad doing out in wickliff you find out I have no idea my phone no yeah I have no idea I haven’t I haven’t looked at any updates I haven’t seen anything who’s he playing with you know oh poino to the red he is playing with Ron dog uh Billy batters and Doug Carter Ron dog yeah I know when I saw the roster I was like wow it’s an odd team they’re they’re four good players but it’s four unique personalities that have to clash with each other so couple loud guys your dad’s The Quiet One he doesn’t really oh he doesn’t he’s the Silent Assassin he gets like he does not like when people are no he doesn’t like when people are Rowdy he just wants to play Botch yeah but you know what a shot I don’t know if it’s in or not wow what a good shot what a Andy it looks like we’re going to be on court too buddy coming up here in a little yeah this is got you got to hit a sweet spot here because the sideboards are not your friend look at this can’t be short oh can’t be short my headset um so you have braces I’ve had them i k them off in like couple weeks June 24th I I never noticed I did you have braces or no oh I had braces for four years man my teeth are your teeth are really straight though you wear your retainer still I have a metal retainer yeah really you actually do wear it still no no it’s not something that I pop in and out it’s just it’s like a bar that’s behind my teeth oh really yeah I don’t even know what’s there all right and that uh message was brought to you by the American Dental Association please see your dentist twice a year and brush regularly back to the game what do you like here for red I don’t like anything dude honestly I don’t know where the Pina is you could look right there oh hi uh so I like red drop and two balls see what the situation here is here they got two Reds in the back one red and one green what a shot nothing to come from it though that’s why I didn’t like it it’s it’s yeah it’s tough Zoom it in there no I like this angle though here we go oh oh still two oh was one so six to one now Mike do you want to hop in for me CU I got to play in about 5 minutes yeah I was trying to just make sure you hold on a hey Mario hi how’s it going over here oh it’s going great we missed you though we missed you interesting day huh yeah I mean you know like I said I’ve been religiously looking at the weather forecast the last 3 days and I honestly thought it was going to be completely different I thought we were going to get a little bit of rain around 1:00 and then they said that by like 2 2:30 it was supposed to clear up but yeah but it’s it’s tolerable it’s tolerable and it’s not snow it’s pretty tolerable if you’re sitting under here yeah yeah for sure it’s tough playing in the rain a little bit uh it is tough it affects a lot of things first of all it’s it’s a little chilly a slight breeze tighten up a little bit your fingers kind of go numb yep oh there goes our umbrella got it to me the the biggest disadvantage is the especially when it’s wet is the Stones the the additional stones that are on the ball if you don’t have a rag to to wipe the ball you’re you’re basically throwing a slippery Stony ball so that could be a big disadvantage if you’re a shooter yeah the games last about 5 10% longer cuz you got a I had some shots when it was it was pouring during parts of our game and uh at times I had to take it probably took me a good 90 seconds to minutes to you know wipe my ball off and then it’s soaking wet and then you got to dry it off you got using every inch of clothing that you have correct my shirt is soaked I mean I I I’m one for a fast-paced game but when the elements come into effect you got to take your time you just have to so four balls down for Dino and Joe Rick wow very nicely done scoreboards I see six to one green yep how you doing so far Mario good good uh ETO I’m playing with ETO and uh we lost our first game to uh Jacob and uh Ryan they played well we we didn’t play so well and then uh we played uh who was it the kennes no not the kennes it was a it was a husband wife tandem um I forget nice people Jeremy and Davin maybe got the bracket yeah they’ve been the losers bracket um so we beat them and then we uh we beat uh J rod and his wife so if we could play three more couples then we’ll be on the right track and how about you guys um we’re we’re terrible I’m retiring retiring yeah no you should not you shouldn’t retire well I got to play another tournament in like three weeks but until then I’m retired it’s a good spot to leave that ball tough to uh the courts have slowed down quite a bit since it started raining too you really got to heave the ball that’ll work good ball too Red I think yeah if you’re if you’re accustomed to playing on synthetic quarts there’s definitely some dis discomfort pointing on these courts because you feel like you’re chucking it when in reality you have to I mean even playing a normal on the average stone dust Court compared to here you got it it wasn’t as bad it wasn’t as slow this morning but then Mr rain decided to intervene they do quite a bit as I understand it they do quite a bit of work on these courts it’s just the the stones no matter what they do the stones keep popping up from you know this is a golf course too so they got to contend with the the lawn people every time they mow the lawn it sprays stuff all over the courts and as you can see it’s completely exposed got some frogs on the quartz we noticed uh no in between yeah in between let’s see I don’t think I’m going to be able to get a shot of it of the backboards oh you see that on the backboard in between that wood you know that there’s like the wood slanted down and then there’s the backboard of the Court uh on our on our court on court 4 we were playing on one side of the Court there’s three frogs just sitting there in between the between the boards let see who says the game isn’t growing got frogs that are attending watching us played that’s how big bot’s getting yeah expanding further into the animal kingdom 62 but yeah seriously when I when I heard you guys were going to be here I was ecstatic cuz I mean you guys already know I love you guys but for you to show up at a local Holly tournament that was just that was mind-blowing to me that that was awesome that’s awesome that you guys did that so thank you for doing that I I appreciate the kind words Mario always good to see you I’m just happy the Wi-Fi is holding up out here yeah we we got kind of mger this whole nice setup our Wi-Fi extender is uh tucked under a grocery bag oh wow under that tree over there yeah looks like somebody almost ran it over with their golf cart of course they did priorities you know this is a golf resort first and foremost looks like Dino pointed over at Angelo on that shot I think he’s saying it threw them off that they both threw their ball at the same time Joe Priti K umbrella defense last ball of the frame for the Waterside guys if we didn’t already mention Joe and Dino are from uh the Waterside Club in Phoenix New York about uh maybe two hours is from here uh and Rick and dog are from Short Street club and Lockport which is west of here these guys are we are let’s see I guess we’re probably a little bit closer to Lockport aren’t we yeah what versus compared to Phoenix yeah yeah that be considerably closer but ohy no fun the panel is complaining wow well it definitely looks younger than you that’s for sure last ball to frame two points sitting there for Rick and dog that’ll be three N9 to two yeah if you’re going to pick a day to be two and out uh I don’t mind it when it’s sure a day like today yeah but the difference is I go into and out I leave you’re you’re here for the long huh yeah but obviously you would rather you know be behind the booth and to go back and forth between playing and I mean I don’t know how you guys feel about that uh it can be a challenge some times oh sure oh got a little bit of the pine but yes I am stuck here dog Hammond dog’s always good good for a good joke oh see if we can for sure coer one out of him after this game just one he’s got a full bag of them true ball yeah the sideboards in these courts are are basically non-existent you can use a sideboard you it doesn’t come off the backboards yeah I mean yeah a lot more action off the back yeah oh a lot of uh what’s the word misdirection redirection on the court when you’re shooting yep I do got to tell you though I do I do enjoy uh the segments that you guys post every day with the if Bachi was on ESPN you know I’m talking about the yeah the videos we post I that’s awesome and and to be honest with you I’m very surprised that Bachi isn’t an Olympic sport or isn’t on you know ESPN 2 at least I saw cornhole on uh CBS Sports at the bar last night oh come on yeah I’d like to officially announce I I want to start the beef with cornhole I mean I have I probably have a similar beef with pickle ball oh both of them the fact that pickle ball has blown up in popularity so hard I’d like to challenge both Sports give us your best player I bet I bet we can beat your best player at least once in 10 tries I bet you can’t beat our best player in a 100 tries I like that I like that those games are silly they have yeah it’s it’s just it’s just weird how it just blew up so quickly they’re derivative of other sports they’re very simple um there’s no culture tradition to it no there’s none and and we can’t even make a ESPN oo well you could pay to be on there a lot of that’s how those Sports got on the just paid to get [Applause] on but YouTube’s more accessible anyways I I’m not complaining there anyways oh We snuck went in maybe I think he did that’s my challenge for the any cornhole Representatives out there pickle ball send us your best player I bet we’ll pick a guy I don’t know who I don’t know any pickle ball I mean I know quite a few cornhole players but they wouldn’t accept the challenge I bet we could draw names out of a hat and find somebody who could beat your best player in 10 [Applause] tries oh look at that [Applause] that’s their last ball [Applause] though oh so now they’re working with three balls on the back yeah what are we looking at Mario a little bit of Paulino maybe yeah I mean you got a you got three balls obviously you got to shoot it would make the most sense to oh look at that that works he that’ll be he hits the red ball but then he takes the Pina down that’s great and now it’ll be an easy two points for [Applause] them so now we got 11 to four if I’m not mistaken 11 to four Rick and Doug and the rain is back and both my phones are dead I can’t see the chat oh wow this have a charger we’re looking for any pickle pickle ball comments from the score Bill and Owens game is 14 to7 they are [Applause] winning I’d be happy to postpone it gentem till next year yeah next year [Applause] what are you suggesting I’m uh suggestion we postpone this till next year for the old guys you know mik Mario it’s tough we’ve been around a long time oh guys don’t let the gray in my beard f f you guess we get delet it [Applause] no I mean we we made it this far we’re how far is SLE Falls from [Applause] here an hour and a half maybe yeah there’s no way we’re going to no an hour I stand corrected good Ball by Doug I’m not if I get in the car I’m going home right yeah can’t blame you three balls down for each team last ball for red is going to be Joe prettis he takes it clan nicely done those points are not easy to beat there and our replay is [Applause] frozen there he is another point for green Rick Mullen [Applause] thank you Andy quick look at our brackets got uh eight remaining undefeated and we are now down in the oh wait is this a winners bracket game oh it is there we are top of the bracket so winner this will play against the winner of Jake Bower and Ryan Omar versus Zack and Sal deuca our remaining undefeateds got the foxes Fred Nico Don Brooks Keith and Aaron Bower I think those are two local teams down at the bottom of the bracket there I would guess at least Aaron Bower is cuz I’m assuming he’s related to Jake yeah Keith is a yeah Keith’s a local guy I didn’t think I needed sweatshirt for this same I I definitely thought about bringing my hoodie but wish I had now do we have him there anyak in the any what’s Radar Radar Andy you talking to the two guys that are uh the only two guys you’re not supposed to be talking to it’s okay it’s all right we’re just not Fielding questions right [Applause] now three balls down for green look at this Oh I thought for sure red was going to stay in it looks close Doug says it’s in yeah oh oh that’ss in two balls back for red what are you looking at here Mario two balls for red um let’s see I want to see the other I would you got I mean there’s room there’s plenty of room to roll it in but rolling it in is not easy on a day like today so think about a hard like a tap against the green ball that’s on the sideboard I mean the green ball is in so you got to move it you can’t really roll around it very easily yeah yeah they could definitely do that too just the fact that they have an extra ball behind that that’s what he’s going to do oh yeah see it’s always the bad breaks though that’s all right though good shot though made some room Joe’s got a he’s got a backboard there to land on didn’t want to make it short I think he beat the point dog’s kicking him 12 to five winner this game advances to the semi finals yeah semifinals of the winners bracket got a nice turnout though 20 teams o that Ball’s that Ball’s going to senal Falls for check out the courts real quick see if they’re I did get a I think we got a text from Russell says it’s uh sunny skies is it really y of course it [Applause] is yeah trying to fight against the forecast a little bit this weekend but as usual the forecast won always they always won oh those two balls big opening now for Rick and Doug those are the nice seats there they’re front row of cars what in their cars watching the oh it’s like a drivein theater oh yeah you got music you got heat heat sounds nice we went inside where they were serving lunch and they had uh you know in the kitchen area there they they have the lamps the Hot Table yeah we we’re standing there with hands under the heat L felt aming minutes o one ball left for red one ball left for green after this one it’s a good ball what do you think about shooting your own ball now Mario there’s what one ball each left or yeah one ball each you shoot your own ball you hit it on the right side you hit it solid yeah that’s a tough point to deal with unfortunately I’m I’m I would play cautious here that’s going to be extra cautious I don’t think it’s oh did he no no didn’t look like he bumped enough but now it’s tough for him to slide in a point I think they do fall down to the right a little bit is he a southpaw oh yeah he’s a southpaw so actually could make this point should fall towards Paul short short great line but short 126 so who’s your next opponent do you know um I do not actually I’m G to check real quick here so Etso and I will play the winner of loser of 24 which is oh loser of 24 which is Brandon sha Brooks and Keith Aaron Bower so we got the winner of that game hm who’s next probably short Chio wow do have to say uh seeing chido here from Canada was a major surprise a pleasant surprise I haven’t seen him in probably 15 years yeah and he pretty much looks the same the only difference is the beard but yeah he’s he’s got that release like Nico well I should say nik’s got the release like him because nik’s five but um that the release is just so it’s smooth it’s it’s gorgeous point or shooting shooting yeah that that far and they’re both left-handed that’s tough shooting backand here the way it is the courts are oh yeah shooting Soto mono you put any kind of horizontal spin on the ball it’s going to by the time it gets to where your target is the Court’s going to take it yep speaking of the Court taking it that ball took a hard left yep three red wow look at this Mario don’t call it a comeback at one point it was I want to say 12 to four so I think it’s five unanswered and yeah I’ll do it after we got a commercial to run it’s great it’s like a is it for uh skips yeah oh okay see if we have time after this Frame Dino franceski president of the Waterside club and he resigns apparently see a lot of that today lot of hands in the air yeah Jes yeah see it’s it could be frustrating it’s funny the release looks good or feels good when you release the ball the line looks good as you’re looking at the ball but then next thing you know it either comes to a complete Hal or it goes four feet past where you wanted it to yeah well you had a nice line on I last one see if he can this one’s much better took him four balls though unacceptable we looking at Paulino or just the ball oh wow just the ball no sense in shooting Paulino he he had like a little spin on that too from the release nice oh yeah look at that jump holy cow you might have missed it if that didn’t uh right what do you think let’s see if we can tell oh yeah he would have missed it it’s kind of like the felicha replay that you did um in Santa Falls a couple years ago where his ball like it looked like it was going to go to the right of it but it span into the ball I don’t know if you remember that replay you guys were talking about it a few times when my dad uh when my dad was shooting because he has like a little hook so it looked like he was gonna miss it far left and then last second it just kind of stuck in big missed opportunity there only one point for Rick and dog yeah a lot of uh good ball there’s a lot of good players that shoot with a a spin on the ball usually yeah usually uh for the right he usually a counterclockwise spin in the car got airt could I could you bring me the sweatshirt please just want me to bring it yeah you want the dry shirt or the dry just a sweatshirt please thank you look at that good man good man and speaking of good good ball another good Ball by Doug gangster Doug got to remember to get a joke out of him after this game oh just look at him and smile and and he’ll throw three jokes your way he said uh he asked us to give a shout out to his roofing company um oh so he wants free advertising that’s what he wanted well he he was telling us I’ll tell you why he was telling us he did this roof over here said he said that was one of his first jobs give a give a shout out to our uh oh yeah to my roofing company are you sure is he sure he wants to take credit for that well I think that’s the before we’re still waiting on the after I think he’s waiting on some money uh from what I understand Doug does some fine work botch it’s a different story what does he do do you know construction Roofing that’s that’s what I thought oh so his joke wasn’t I mean the dude’s Always Tan and I don’t think he’s been in Florida for a while so unless he’s doing that he’s he’s definitely working outside well let’s see how he works the tape measure yeah that’s the other thing too he actually is very good with the T measure well this game very well could be over at this point but it ain’t what’s the count now 1310 15 looks like to nine oh okay thank you so we got game point now for Rick and Doug actually yeah it is pretty wet decent first B I’m good thank you thank you Dad got a sweater delivery oh it’s a second time in three frames that Dino’s found that line that falls quite a bit to that uh let’s see that would be the southern board good speed though and over on court two we have a Toronto versus Toronto matchup pep peasant and chesse what’s chess’s last name uh chio’s last name is bot oh I’m looking at the Winner’s back baloi bot peasant chido paloi versus Matt Lipa and uh Val palota paloi and palot Y palot is that how you say ball in Italian in Spanish it’s pelot Bala Bala just yeah but you know there’s obviously dialects too so ball game 169 Rick and dog advancing over Dino and Joe dino franceski and Joe Priti that sends them into the semifinals of the winners bracket awaiting the winner of Jake Bower and Ryan Omar while we have a second thank you to our oh this isn’t going to work if I do that move that move that a from our [Music] sponsors for over 60 years family-owned skips on the ridge has delivered the personal one-on-one Service Rochester families have grown to love skips uses only the freshest choicest cuts of meat and poultry and don’t forget Skip’s homemade sausage always fresh always delicious and there’s never an extra charge for a custom cut you can’t afford to skip skips on the ridge that’s awesome you can’t afford to skip skips on the ridge told you Mario yeah I could go for a nice steak right now after seeing that wow I wonder if they supplied the white Hots here oh yeah they have to well well we are down to how many teams do we have left now we got eight up here we’ll just count the loser that game is still being up there and well okay so we’re going to have four we have eight and eight after the the three and the losers bracket are done well we’ll have four four and eight four and eight yeah sorry so we’ll have 12 teams left out of 20 uh momentarily and e e okay little Personnel change in the booth had to put my sweater on hey back for more had a bit of a wardrobe change it’s not fun walking around with wet socks and shoes it’s a good thing for BBN that we are um such terrible players get to hold down the booth for a large part of these tournaments I’m going to take issue with that description what part the terrible part what’s our excuse this time no excuse but we’re not terrible we lost two close games to good teams yeah but comes down to the crucial shots and they had more success on those than we did so I saw that you were going over the brackets a minute ago with Mar how many I’m not familiar how many teams are left in the Winner’s bracket now we’re down to four yet uh at the end of this round we will be can scroll up right in front of you there waiting for the end of the foxes versus uh Rich Richie and uh Andy Sweeney and Andy that’s five to two right now looks like rich and Andy are winning and our other game Brandon and uh Sean our other game is just starting against Keith and uh Keith loots and Aaron bow oh going have the barnetts right there will will and Owen Barnett Will Bill Bill and Owen versus uh s Zach Toca two fatherson teams down him back and then they might not be going down I heard him say do you want to go down and back and I well we up in a second Bill’s got his beach towel yeah I think they are practicing here we get a little bit of our other quarts Matt and Val versus Pat and ches cidio game is uh see a little bit of the scoreboard on the right 53 maybe yeah 53 in favor of Matt Val jeez the sky looks like a little a little brighter over there could it be wouldn’t be too optimistic Pat pein 63 that is a losers bracket game as is this up coming one on our feature court so losers are getting sent home is this a new look for Billy or is or is it just me the Hat the backwards hat uh it does look unusual does does look uh yeah it does look like uh it’s not what he usually has on his head you think he keeps that towel on his car oh yeah there are those of us some of us recommend keeping towels in your car all the time you never know when you need a towel would it came in handy today just cidio nice hit and the cigarette always like his dad I remember jid’s dad he was he was one of my favorite players what was his dad’s name Mike great shooter great he was on a great team what team uh Villa buano they’re a great te yeah liberato is our leader Mike is on the team there’s a guy Lee and I can’t remember the other one right now I hope somebody can fill us in on that but cio’s Dad Mike was very calm cool quiet I always I always like the way he played we’re getting started over on our feature Court some I’m going to get over there after this Frame 7 to three Matt and Val over on court one I guess they only did one practice frame so wellow so it’s a three that was a three-point frame huh yeah three nothing in favor of the ducas all lot of room it’s a nice ball from Owen I don’t think Owen I wonder how often he gets the play did you notice the angle he took mhm do you notice where Paulino is it’s in a completely different spot from where we were talking about before you see where Billy’s Ball’s going yeah he threw it straight if he’d gone at an angle like Owen that’s what I’m talking about that’s the line I like oh Paulino was in a different spot be that as it may Big four-point Frame there you think that’s a Shakespearean phrase be that as it may I know be nice to have a golf court or golf court golf cart set up for the broadcast we could just drive around I like that idea yeah I won’t Replay that one bill I don’t know how it would work with the cameras would you have the cameras on the cart I don’t know well give me three big frames to start off the game potentially okay two balls back still and they do not have the third Point that’s a red ball over on the right of your screen so I’m surprised a nice shooting for two yeah two balls back maybe uh maybe now don’t think there’s much danger sell on the point but especially for these guys are home home team guys in theory they should know the lines the Duca Salen Zac from representatives of Holly but Club here Zach on the left of your screen drinking his beer s rolling out Paulino and then the barnuts that’s uh and the white shorts that’s Owen and Billy with the the uh I don’t know how to describe that hat what’s the symbol under the back of his hat mean Oakley oh Oakley yeah be a little short it’s kind of hard to convince your brain how hard you got to throw it here it is it is I’d step up to the line and think I have to throw it I I pick a spot to throw it to and I can’t believe sometime I have to hit that spot overall in court two that game is now 8 to5 in favor of matville on court three we have a 13-4 game uh looks like rich theala and Mr panel are leading nice ball from Z another big frame and on court four a game is now one to one this game is flying by so far two nice balls is kind of what I was the hometown boys find in the line four times four green nine to four yeah that’s a nice nice spot in that golf cart that make it think so sticking look the Sun is peeking through the clouds trying to at least do you have a lot of battery on your phone can you pull up the chat please yeah hang on I got a text from uh Russell Johnson asking the dimensions of the Court did you already go over that well something curious just happened the back wall got hit hard enough that the accelerometer in the camera decided that up was down and down was up I’ve never seen that before really interesting so last ball oh no one more ball they only got one last ball is going to be Zachs father’s telling him to play on that ball on the wall got one point sitting there this could easily be three and I think it is 12 to four that four-point frame is doing a lot of heavy lifting right now for the barnetts so Russell the dimensions are I believe these are 60 feet long is that right Michael sure by 9 and a half I think we were told some water than that to me but I’ll believe whatever I’m told that’s yeah that’s what we were told see over on court two Pat and chest cityo have taken the lead now nine to8 that game was I think 8 to2 at one point 8 to three finish I heard you talking earlier about uh pickle ball and nice hit Billy yeah looks like two red now couple of really nice balls there from Zack theca and uh I would might of no just two no I think it’s three oh he was going for he wanted him to move Paulino a little bit more for four points I didn’t even see that so the barnetts have only won two frames but it’s been a four and a three at some point when you feel like it could you grab your charger out of the car please yeah I’ll get it now if you want sure hey thank you Zach delca solid two balls down for each team there’s a sunshine courts drying out this is a game of adapting today the courts changing drastically during the game the balls the condition of nearly a stick there from Billy the balls uh going from soaking wet to dry W Billy Billy dodging he to dodge the ball coming from the other court too look at that staying focused with that other ball coming at him Billy’s staying keeping himself in the game mentally after a disappointing start giving up some big frames but yeah every time that backboard gets hit the camera the camera thinks that it’s upside down interesting not every time it’s only happened twice but 129 five unanswered it’s been a game of runs so far deep Paulino this might be the deepest we’ve seen so far today and he puts it right on backboards are Al of course oh look at this almost beat the point from behind Zack says the red ball is touching Paulino suggesting that his father rolls into it balls do not come off the wall much but if anybody knows where to hit on the wall it’s going to be these guys wow nice shot Billy very tough to get the ball to go where you want it to that far down these courts Billy certainly throws it hard enough be short last ball coming for the delca it’s going to be Zack and then Owen will have one more behind them interesting to see the home players rolling like that too lobbing it forward a little bit rather than rolling it especially you know at this point on the court I was saying earlier that’s the adjustment that I eventually made was to uh just start lobing the ball rather than rolling it cuz there are some spot the the spots on this on these courts are not exactly consistent with how the ball is going to react when it hits so there are some spots Billy with the assist there are some spots where the ball will just get eaten up by the courts soft spots spots with a lot of loose loose dust uh so one way to kind of negate that and to allow your ball to travel far enough is to lob the ball that game over on court two just ended this game is 12 to 10 now but’s had a lot of nice hits in a row doesn’t get the break there but did his job made a lot of room for Owen and on court two Matt and Val 16-10 over Pat and chido so Pat chido have been eliminated just plug plug the USB in there please all right over here plug it on this side the teams are dropping like flies very nice ball from Billy s did not enjoy that two balls back for Zach but it’s GNA be tough he’s gonna have to move Paulino there it goes now he’s got uh couple feet there he’s got to get past that red ball us on the sideboard that a USB P yes it is 1211 it was 12 to four and yeah great first ball from Owen Barnett starting to warm up just a tiny little bit that helps with the fingers especially shooting two nice hits from Zach green on the left Red’s on the right Billy saying sorry after that ball but that’s not too bad of a ball although when you’re playing against the home team you expect them to be able to beat balls like that but it was uh he certainly left it in the right spot so Billy’s going to have the last ball of the frame and uh what was a 12 to four game could very soon be tied up or perhaps the barnetts can take the lead that ball Owens shaking his head barnetts are in WoW nine unanswered for the barnetts 13 to 12 oops I closed oh no okay we’re good 13- 12 and another great ball from Owen Barnett very short poino about a 31 foot Paulino Zach’s been hitting him well but Owen’s just putting him right back although this one it’s going to be in front I think s can get there from exactly where he’s standing I think should go pretty straight towards Paulino although well I guess it’s in nine unanswered for the Barnett dad I was going to say I I stepped away for a few minutes they came back how have they been doing it they’ve been putting balls closer than the other team’s balls yeah just executing huh it’s good to see take games three balls down for the ducas and the barnetts and Billy’s going to have the last ball of the frame that last ball from Sal just just a little bit long Zack to try and cover up he did not do his job and he actually made a little bit more room for Billy but what Billy’s looking at here is if their front red beats the back green uh he could try and shoot the two green that close to each other out I think that might be good 15 they’re looking at it Zach says to Billy says two wow yeah 11 in a row from the barnetts oh we got a bunch in a row and got the 15 well we’re not as good as the barnetts yes game is going score-wise exactly how our first game went they were down 12 to four now it’s 1512 this is the point where we gave up a three-point frame yeah that hurt certainly didn’t help and then the last one just ended up on the backboard you had a nice hit ball hit poino down and it was a crap shoot in the back and the barnets now have the ball Advantage third ball coming for the ducas and Zach is in a tough spot here barnuts are going to have two balls to win the game and they might not need to use him nope wow 12 straight points for the barnetts and they advance 16 to 12 over the ducas that’s uh pretty discouraging to say the least and they await the winners of the game that’s on uh Court two now between Val and Matt from Toronto and Dino and Joe from the Waterside club and that game right now oh there’s no score up so this must be the first frame yeah Val Matt just beat Pat and chido yeah the sky is looking a little bit more a little bit brighter see if the cameras can capture the clouds and no no they cannot beautiful day here a beautiful day for the last 10 seconds you’re H New York Western New York somewhere between Rochester and buffalo today’s tournament is of course uh memorial for eto’s father Ugo the eighth annual we’ll have a little uh for the championship game we’ll take some time to talk a little bit about Ugo have Etso sit down and look at some pictures and stuff a tribute to the man who uh in whose honor we are competing it was nice that Etso brought his mom today I talked to her for a bit Yo’s mom rolled out the first ball ceremonially to start the tournament we could have used her point [Music] could have used a lot of things Volo just long this game is two to zero right now in favor of Matt Val two Volos I like it didn’t work out but two to two it’s nice to see more people trying follows more people yeah I saw Billy hit a follow I saw a couple of people who do know Frank freski green has ball in the back too so I imagine Matt will shoot this SOA mon but I am wrong hits it sticks it and green is sitting two I think could be one Valentina palota good Ball but the water side fellas have ball Advantage uh I think this decision to roll is okay we’re not rolling good say I think that’s a bad decision great ball great ball let see if we can see it on camera too not quite ball looks like it’s what do you think two feet Beyond Paulino yeah at least two and we got to turn that music off please can you deal with that y last ball the frame vals is in the way there I don’t think he pushed it enough I think it’s going to be one point for mat Val yeah one point for the Toronto Toronto Wis is that a word 3 to2 up shortly on court one is going to be a winners bracket game one of our semifinals it’s gonna be Rick Mullen and Doug Hammond versus Jake Bower and Ryan omara we’ll get over there once they get underway folks if any of you aren’t subscribe to the BBN please take a second click that subscribe button it is free of course and uh after you subscribe you can turn on hit the notification Bell to be notified when we go live Matt Lepa tickles the green ball but it’s still in and if you haven’t done so yet please click the thumbs up button to like today’s broadcast thank you third ball of the frame for Toronto is a good one from valota this is not a very useful camera angle nice shot from Joe Priti I think he actually would have preferred to have just the ball there that is a red point and now Matt is going to have the last ball of the frame oh it’s been Sunny for a full 10 minutes now dad well I actually see a little bit of blue little patch of blue oh yeah look at that wow I think Winter’s over Do You See Your Shadow are you suggesting that I’m a ground Hut I don’t know there’s a joke in there somewhere somewhere Billy still got his beach towel over there 5-2 Toronto well here’s some undefeateds coming on to this court impressive uh display of neuroplasticity from the Toronto players used to playing at the uh chachar club which is extremely fast being able to adapt to these courts here and at least beat us their other victory was against another Toronto team but fouls rolling some very nice balls yeah she rolled she rolled some great balls against us trying to adjust to the brightness here but not much I can do don’t worry it’ll be cloudy again and about 45 seconds M leppa looks like it slipped out of his hand earlier you uh you broadcast a game with Doug right with Doug well no a game that he played yes oh we didn’t get a didn’t get a joke no I so I told him about it he said he’s going to try to think of a clean one that game is underway so we’ll get over there after this Frame last ball coming for Joe Priti wow very nice shot and that makes it five to five first ball of this game yeah we’ll get back no I’m sorry no second frame second frame sorry we’ll get back over to court two uh if that game continues to be close later in the game but for now don’t want to disappoint our court one players Jake Bower good hit sh looks like we’re rolling balls on the surface of the Sun ball barely came to a rest before Ryan stepped up to shoot it wide left though and we got a tie game three Fe players from left to right it’s Doug Hammond on the left representing Short Street bot Club Lockport New York shooting the ball right there is his partner Rick Mullen and the home team representing Holly Bachi Club that’s Jake Bower with the sunglasses on joined by Ryan Omar so the winner of this game goes to the finals of the Winner’s bracket mhm so they’ll have probably quite a weight after this game H found a dead spot on the backboard maybe there’s a frog behind the board there could be it yeah if you didn’t hear earlier there are frogs Behind These backboards the backboard is like there’s a piece of wood slanting down there that’s separate from the the the back wall of the Court just enough room for a family of frogs actually I think they’re toads which is which frogs are amphibian well they’re toads are amphibious toads my understanding where I grew up toads spent more time on the land and the frags were always near the water you could be right but Turtles and tortoises are like that and and it’s the other way around right Turtles are the Aquatic ones tortoises are amphibious chat are frogs amphibious or are toads amphibious I know frogs are amphibious they well they’re amphibians right I don’t know frogs are which do they both come from tadpoles that’s a good question I don’t think so I think toads are very different well at least Butch is the preferred sport of toads because you probably never see toads like on a pickle ball court another reason why Butch is better than pickle ball didn’t get any responses in the chat did you to your challenge no I don’t think we have anyone who’s going to side with uh pickle ball I don’t think we have any pickle ball representatives in our audience today thank goodness this is not a friendly beef that I have this is a I thought it was more with uh that bean bag game I thought that’s who you were talking about either one of them I think they’re easy I don’t think their Pros are all that good I think it’s boring to watch there’s no culture to it they don’t speak Italian and I think uh their business model is not sustainable 32 dog and wreck Tanner yes backboard live hi Tanner somebody clip that and send that to uh some cornhole Representatives what was your challenge again uh send us some of your quote unquote professional cornhole players put up a team we’ll field a team of a couple bot players and uh I bet in I said 10 tries earlier I don’t know the list sticks have to be worked out I bet the best bot players are much harder to beat at Bachi than the best cornhole players are at cornhole giving them a lot of air time here Jake’s ball beat that second point but it is behind Paulino so Doug can do that almost late on it but just beat it rick for three and that is five unanswered from Lockport six to2 yeah I did forget to get over here to tell us a joke after last game all the ones he’s told me are wouldn’t be uh appropriate good hit from Rick three balls down now for Lockport and uh Holly being home team should be able to beat that pretty easily and he did I’m hungry get hungry for any of the food they’ve got here um do you know what they’ve got have you seen their menu I have not two balls back and the point sitting there for Holly both of them are going to be Jakes that one’s going left Ryan says it’s no good see if you can find the line that one is short and that was headed to the right over on court two that game is now 10 to five in favor of Matt and Val it was five to five when this game started it breezes just a little bit chilly and every time I look over at court two Matt’s hitting the ball and sticking look at that wow I think Ryan just beat that point got it have to put more thought into the logistics of that challenge maybe it doesn’t even have to be the best cornhole or pickle ball player maybe we just an average the average uh but then how do you de League player just a random League player League team yeah I bet you take a random League botchy player versus a random League the cornhole or pickle ball player I bet the botchy player can has a chance can beat the uh the other athletes but that those you know what I’m saying I haven’t thought this through very well what I’m saying is I think your sport is easy another nice Point wow 13 to five now on court 2 Court 3 is 11 to 10 in favor of Nico and Fred Fox they are playing against uh a couple of gentlemen that I don’t know who are they playing dad oh they’re playing uh Chad and otavio Chad ferio and otavio echino I like that name echino Echo Leno and on court 4 there is nothing on the scoreboard Mario Scala and Etso kotti are up against Keith and Ryan I think our score Holio has not been updated no that wasn’t updated nice hit by Jake Bower Beauty yeah hasn’t been updated two balls back for Holly oh he takes a big back swing Jake does MHM well he plays on these courts wow another surgical remover removal plays on these courts you got to throw it hard three-pointer there for Holly nice shot by Ryan Omar oh I see some hand shaking going on in court three I think Nico and Fred just won a game so with that Nico and Fred will move on at the bottom of your bracket there to face the winner of Mario eto’s game and right our game right now it’s at the top of the bracket of course Rick and Doug versus Jake and Ryan winner that will await the winner of where are they playing that game hasn’t started yet three balls down for each team or no four balls down Holly’s out of balls lockport’s got two balls back and a point sitting there try and come in from the left side the trick here is not to do it hard because even though he even though backboards alive oh he’s making a liar out of me oh he squeezed it out I thought he was going to come straight off the backboard 10 six Doug threw out the Paulino through traffic there on court two now dino franceski and Joe Priti versus Matt and Val up again on a see oh they’ve been playing that game oh I’m thinking that game ended yeah yep yep yep that game is 13 to7 Now Matt Valor winning it was 13 to five so yeah oh 13 to8 now ball behind Paulino is the point Ryan will be rolling just towards his own ball hoping to touch something or do that that works ball’s in a great spot now a little bit surprised that Doug and Rick didn’t discuss that shot a little more before he rolled it seems like a tough ball to beat especially rolling down the uh rolling down the wall there there is not much of a roll off the wall and that’s a no good hey Pete no no rondina is here David nice to you to tune in good to see your name in the chat again glad you found a club to play at never been to a Pinstripes myself but I’ve seen pictures interesting business they got going on there I fully support it Jake and Ryan have that point with the back red ball Doug says one few points on the board this game for the Holly fellas oh I guess we’re measuring few points left left on the board left on the court the left them somewhere left on the table left on the table this break in the action is brought to you by skips on the [Music] ridge for over 60 years family-owned skips on the ridge has delivered the personal one-on-one Service Rochester families have grown to love skips uses only the freshest choicest cuts of meat and poultry and don’t forget skips homemade sausage always fresh always delicious and there’s never an extra charge charge for a custom cut you can’t afford to skip skips on the ridge nice so there was two points Doug uh made the correction one more point there was not left on the table over on court two five straight points for the Waterside boys 13 to 10 now think nicely done three balls down though for Holly you know what I what uh I haven’t seen a lot of today is people shooting poos I think part of the reason is the poos are so heavy if you don’t hit him Square they’re not going to go that far they’re not going to go to the backboard necessarily Rick’s got two balls yeah here’s the scenario where shooting naalo would uh work out great for the green guys ball is easier though ball makes more sense green has a point for number 12 if it stops it’s good I think it is yeah 128 blockport is within Striking Distance winner this game advances to the finals of the winers bracket loser is into the losers bracket still 13-10 over on court two and that Breeze is picking up again and it looks like Matt and fer set to score a point or two this Frame 14 to 10 I wonder who made those score board S I like those scoreboards what do you think sure you can see them yeah you can see them no matter where you are ish well Holly’s going to win this race they just keep bumping the balls Holly does have the ball Advantage lockport’s got one ball left yeah that works Holly’s got two points in there now now Lockport has a decision to make can’t just put another one on the wall and let Holly bump it out for two or three well you could park it in front of the back red one sure just going to give up one that way maybe you got to take a chance and might get a combo put a ball where dog was indicating there away from the board get a combo on what you no if he had beat that point that Ball’s almost three feet behind Paulino yeah so if you put one in front of it then the other team just rolls on it and gets a point if it’s behind poino yeah but if you put it like even with poo or in front of poino you can get then the other team gets two points yeah you can get a combo you’re not going to combo on both of their balls not sure how many points Holly has I think they got two at least two might be three see a lot of big frames today it’s easy to waste balls on these courts two points point do we have a player playing Barefoot over there we do that warms my heart I used to play tournaments bare fo Doug Hammond fresh off a trip to the water closet I walked in there earlier and uh it’s like a crime scene or caution you know wet floor signs the L lining the hallway yeah there’s a a space heater in the hallway a fan in the bathroom one of the urinals was wrapped in a garbage bag and there was a pair of pliers sitting on the counter next to it something had gone a r I think you got there after I get it when I got there there was about an inch of water on the in the hallway opportunity for Lockport they got the ball advantage or for Holly I mean Lockport does have the point but if Jake can shoot it out force them to use their last ball Ryan will have an opportunity to do something got it got it clean just barely can hear the pitter patter of rain once again on court two we got a 14 to 12 game that makes it a 7 to one run nice hit by Ryan 7 to one run for the water side guys and this game is 1211 got two game two good games way over on court 4 that’s a tie game looks like it’s about 66 or something like that that’s Etso and Mario against Keith and Aaron the rain is coming down I saw Matt just hit their own ball out wat side has two good points sitting there see if I can get them both both games here yeah Val just made a ball short but still two two for water side depending on where this ball ends up Waterside might be possible for Waterside to go out three balls down for Lockport Holly oh Matt has put in a beautiful ball over there Jake and Ryan three balls back got it Beauty swinging a Miss from water side on court two hly can take the lead now wow very lucky break lucky shot over there 1414 hits his own ball combos on the other ball and we got a tie game here they didn’t weigh down this canopy did they it was shaking a minute ago this court might be the record for how quickly the balls get to where they’re going when you roll because it’s so slow what was the timing do you remember the timing on any of the other I do courts like on the fast ones yes yes would you methan to roll the length of the Court the ball would come to a stop after after about 19 seconds in Las Vegas and that was on an 89t Court in Las Vegas where they’re 70 ft the ball would roll just under 16 seconds on our courts in Troy it’s anywhere from five to S seconds for the ball to stop rolling yeah that was maybe five or six seconds that ball of course that wasn’t the full length of the court but it affects the rhythm of the game you know the way we the way I grew up I’m playing on the stone dust courts the courts are slow so you push the ball hard and it slows down quickly only rolls 5 six seconds and that affects you know who’s going to pick up the next ball and roll the next ball or throw the next ball whereas if you have to wait 15 20 seconds I that’s a noticeable difference in the rhythm of the game one ball left for each team on court two that game is 14-4 foul is GNA have the last ball the frame Here Comes Joe’s ball and that might be a big mistake there oh that might be two red already on court two yeah that game might be over Court one Jake just narly missed the hit but but came out and made the point yeah Paulino is right next to that red ball that popped out there yeah and he pushed the other red ball up closer too he hits the seolin who’s going to go towards the red foul shooting for the game and that’s it Matt and Val advancing over Joe and Dino didn’t want to hit Paulino there but it worked out all right uh one ball back it’s going to be Rex and I’m not sure he has much of an option oh so Matt and Val are going to play against uh bil and Owen Barnett oh man that was a big mistake there wow anything but that and instead of 15- 12 score is 14-13 and Ryan’s first ball is a beauty H still got the point who is that in court three playing Barefoot must be freezing that’s either Brandon comden or Sean Brooks that game is seven to2 and I’ll try to figure out who’s winning last ball coming for Holly now Ryan suggesting Jake takes it out Off the Wall I think with a strong roll so his own ball sticks around this is not an easy shot it’s going to be no those ports well wow it worked out came out just enough but those boards do not come out much yeah it looked like he hit too early on the board but it kind of tailed back kind of sucked back in towards the board after it hit but one ball each for Rick and Doug Rick can see this red ball from where he’s standing and this should be the end of the game yep a valiant comeback from Ryan and Jake but Rick and Doug 16-13 puts them in the finals of the winners bracket awaiting the winner of Richie zakala and Andy sweny who are losing right now to Brandon uh comom and Shawn Brooks that game is 7 to3 three and once again we get the pitter patter of Mother Nature little more than a pitter patter this time what would you call it more of a splitter [Applause] splatter well we got no games on court one or two it’s making my teeth chitter chatter yeah [Applause] so Rick and Doug there you have it on to the finals of the winners and in the losers we have Toronto versus senica Falls Val versus Billy and Owen and Fred and Nico awaiting the winner of Mario nsio versus Keith and Aaron which is 11 to8 in favor of Keith and Aaron [Applause] while we have a break in the a action um I think we’re get to break in the rain too clouds don’t look promising no they don’t well I’m sure we will have another game up here shortly on court one or two um I imagine it’ll be Billy and Owen versus uh matv Val but I’m going to take a short break and uh we will be right back in a few minutes with that will be a quarterfinal no yeah yes quarterfinals um at that point point there will be no six teams left right yeah there’ll be seven seven teams left eight teams left eight teams left it’s not possible for there to be seven well okay eight teams there’ll be six in the losers bracket there so that’ll be not quite a quarterfinal game yet and a canopy next to us just dumped about a gallon of water in the ground so we’re going to take a short break uh if you’re not subscribed to the BBN Please Subscribe please like today’s video click that thumbs up button and um

course the kotes as uh what’s that do I have a coin no I don’t have a coin this whole day of course dedicated to eto’s Father the great Ugo we’ll have a little bit of take some time to talk about him before the finals game today final fin game final game The Last Game the championship got to take a look a walk back through the years with Ugo so we got that to look forward to along with a a special video that Etso sent me uh I think a lot of you will enjoy but before we get there we are the bottom of our losers bracket here Fred Nico versus Mario Etso winner this will advance to play Jake Bower and Ryan omara and I am getting cold colder and colder and this tangarang tonic is not warming me up yet I’m going to need to have at least four of these before I start feeling comfortable here scoreboard has not been updated this is the first frame of the game and ETS is shooting which is how I always knew Etso growing up as a shooter of course playing with his father Ugo the legendary roller with his patented uh full body on the ground slap in the court he was the greatest Fred and Nico will be red and if my math is correct that leaves green for Mario and Etso air mail from Etso kosi looks like it came off enough did you already finish your drink no this is mine who’s is this uh not mine and not yours so ET yours you can leave it there yeah a minute ago you mentioned uh I need Billy’s towel in a blanket what’s that what did I mention you mentioned Ugo and his style of uh rolling person I remember the very first time I saw him year was that oh set the scene it had to be when did I start playing buch tournament um right around the early 70s and I saw these teams from uh Rochester and some of them had some very nice slacks on and nice shoes and Ugo had a nice pair of slacks and I was commenting on that and then I saw him roll when he he Dives he Dives on the ground it’s like oh man he got his pants all dirty that’s back when I was playing Barefoot Nice Shot Mario wow I could watch that a few times the leg the left leg goes up first he looks down at the ball flips his hand over a shot that should be studied and he throws it out about at least that’s at least 40t he’s throwing it out in the air which you have to on these courts beautiful shot and here he goes again off the back wow the scholas some of the best back wall Live players and back wall dead for that matter just one of the best bot families in the country I’ll bet if they played cornhole there’s my challenge cornhole pick a a family are there even cornhole families there’s probably are yeah I’m sure there are but I don’t think there’s anybody out there who been playing corn hole competitively for Generations cornhole pick your best family and we’ll put him up against our best bachchi family I bet our best bachchi family what do you think 10 10 matches 10 matches I bet our best boty family wins at least one I bet your best cornhole I bet our best bot family wins at least one cornhole match I bet your best cornhole family in 10 matches play 10 games to 12 12 how many points do you think they score total total five five feels generous yeah but you know there is a factor of luck involved if you play backboard dead I I’ll give him a few more points in 10 matches okay yeah 10 matches yeah maybe one point per match I’ll give him give them 10 points I’ll formalize this [Music] challenge well if it was hot out that breeze would feel really nice and if we had won a game everything else would feel better too over on court two Billy and Owen Barnett are up six to five on Valentina palota and at Lea and a quick four-point lead for Mario nsio Mario ETO out of we’ll say Rochester essentially a local team here I think Etso plays at a league out here of course Mario Mario Scala in the black shirt there iio kotti in the blue and then uh the playing against the foxes from Rome New York that is Nico and Fred Fred in the black jacket Nico the 15-year-old 15-year-old Lefty in the uh Center of your screen you know earlier who mentioned Bill Barnett wearing a hat backwards Nico usually wears a backwards he’s not wearing one today you go really this ball sideways yeah he did his rest on the way back it extra sideways there still a beautiful looking shot you feel you have to shoot harder on these courts oh you certainly do nice recovery from Fred I I enjoy seeing Etso shooting these days he plays with Ron dog a lot uh when he plays with Ronnie’s a roller but also it seems like it’s been a long time since I’ve seen Etso as a shooter and when I was you know just starting to play 12 14 years old Etso was always the shooter uh with his with his father so it’s an element of nostalgia there for me and he always had that low shot so he could stick a lot of balls well he’s tall too yeah yeah but he gets low and keeps the ball low good adjustment from Nico Mars I’m what would you do here I think I might put a ball one ball back for each team yeah I think I might put a ball in front of that red one why just give him one point yeah no if he shoots it’s Fred’s ball Fred hasn’t taken a shot yet make him shoot that’s a teaser he is going to shoot three three points nice shot how did that speed up there huh it’s an interesting uh I thought that was my computer at first but that’s just Fred’s uh Fred’s release 4 three yeah Mario would have liked this ball I mean they said I heard AIO say perfect spot when he rolled that ball I’m surprised that told him to put it behind Paulino I’m Mario I would have liked that ball to be certainly closer to Paulino well I think the thinking was IDE in front the longer it is the harder it is to hit I think that was a thinking okay interesting or the harder it is to hit solid right that’s another Factor on these courts you got to hit it solid for it to go down far enough to to not beat the other you know the other two points there I had a joke you got a joke I got a ladies and gentlemen the moment that at least I’ve been waiting for oh you don’t have to sit down sit down for a second okay sure you can sit down are you going to use the handheld hold on I got to do something here I think it’s a clean jeez I think this is oh what just happened oh he just missed on the court that’s heo hit his own ball after this Frame once this Frame ends I don’t think I play again so good yeah you’ve set yourself up pretty nicely there dog sh is good it’s all my Pur AR you and Etsy or out of balls Nico has a pocket full of something you’re fine dog you’re no you’re okay you’re okay in your dreams Nico could I think that’s what he’s going to do he’s going to shoot this green all the way in the right missed it he missed it he would have had three probably cuz he sticks around he tends to stick around yeah it could have been two or three but just one so it’ll be a 44 game and uh it’s not really a joke it’s just a story a story what do you got for us Doug ladies and gentlemen a visit hi everybody from Doug Hammond anyways this guy goes into the bar ask the bartender for 10 shots so the bartender sets down 10 shots right in front of him on the bar the guy takes the shot drinking these shots as fast as he can one after another after another finny about the seventh shot the bartender stops him he goes hey buddy why are you drinking those so fast the guy looks up and he goes well if you had what I’ve got you’d be drinking them that fast too and the bartender says why what do you got the guy says 50 cents 50 cents it’s the only clean J I know I’m sorry hey everybody thank you very much thank you dog you’re welcome Mike thank you sorry to your door nice hit by ETO there I like that one if I make another TV game only get it’s going to cost you don’t these close I’m not a rich man I’m only rich in polyunsaturates called it the all right I’m terrible at remembering jokes me tooot very quickly in court two matle but just made a nice shot off the backboard they are trailing uh matville are trailing the barnetts 10 to 7 p six feet short and 4 feet long that’s what these courts do to you that ball’s in a good spot at least and uh rapid fire from Nico wonder if that’s take a look at Paulino here not going to be an easy shot if he does try to if he does decide to take it wonder if Mario will try the outside I don’t think it’s it’s easy to get there I don’t think there’s any I think it’s going to bend toward the board easy path that went pretty straight last two balls belong to Etso he has the option of shooting that red ball the best red ball to make two and that’s what he’s going to do made a lot of room can’t tell that’s seems to think it’s in see what the tape measure says over on court two we have no games on three or four over on court two we have another losers bracket game that’s uh the barnetts versus matv Val game is 13-7 seven in favor of Billy and Owen and the call over here is one six to four for the foot Mark he should give me the foot Mark there the what atal foot mark gave me the footp Mark I that would have been right there yeah Mars you’re lucky you’re poting good not a boy sure is taking surprisingly long to dry there’s a lot of lot of humid a lot of moisture in the air sure Fred Fox got to take a left that is a tough spot to find on the court that is kind of right on the ridge there this is where we were discussing earlier I’d like to see Fred test your theory but he’s he’s not standing in the corner the balls are rolling straight now Beauty one ball left for the foxes iio is going to shoot poino uh that’ll work wa a little room I still got the ball Advantage ETO says Leia Peach Mario’s taking a different line here a there’s the peach that’s a Georgia Peach a we got a comment from a pickle ball account do we unfortunate break there for Nico it’s not in the chatas taking out his own ball red might have had two there it’s a good hit we got a comment from pickle ball account and Instagram let me see what it says nice shot from etl1 Green 7 to four on court two I see the barnetts at 15 15 to7 and Billy just made a nice hit and Matt and Valor down to their last ball and it’s short it’s going to be game Barnett of one another game nice bar Fred l pickle ball account leaving a negative comment on one of our Instagram videos the beef is official I’m looking forward to it I’m sure we will have many years of uh friendly or not so friendly beef I’m undecided I’m up for either another nice shot from Nico and another bad break he’s saying where where else am I supposed to hit that from two balls back still though for the foxes and Nico’s going to have to shoot again he might want to try to steal this off the backboard Nice Shot wow you don’t see shots like that in whiffle ball pickle ball great shot by Nico looks like the Toronto crew is uh getting ready to hit the road good good fall teaser step wow mine looks better but that’s going to be short doesn’t really look like a tough point to beat but these courts are just some spots are just so hard to find it’s three four times 11 to six a court four now we’ve got a game starting Billy and Owen Barnett are playing uh Andy Sweeney Richie Zak zakala zakala do you know how he pronounces it zakala zakala they’re just either warming up or starting yeah Jake Bower and Ryan Omar waiting in the wings for the winner this game meanwhile our winners bracket final is set it’ll be Rick Mullen and Doug Hammond of Lockport New York versus uh local team Brandon comden and Shawn Brooks Two Gentlemen who I’ve not seen play before one of whom is barefoot I see him at the bar he’s wearing flipflops formal we well no shirt no shoes Pat peasant with a World Series of Poker sweater for those who don’t know Pat peasant has done fairly well at the World Series of Poker cashing a poker Pro for several years with poker stars do you know what his career earnings are uh you can look them up but no I don’t I don’t either believe he was a 36 limit player I think that’s what his uh he was a cash game 36 limit hold him player as a pro started playing poker in Woodbridge Ontario with the great Daniel nanu one of the highest really most successful highest paid highest grossing poker players ever one of the most famous in the world debatably this year he’s having a great year negano is this year um debatably the best in the world learned how to play alongside each other did Daniel negru and Pat peasant nice shot by ETO that might be two point points there I’m surprised he did it like that surprised he didn’t go off the wall go off the wall well certainly worked can you see the scoreboard 12 one point oh on court four somebody’s got a fast start they just started and it’s like looks like five nothing six nothing six nothing yep that is the barnetts on a roll Billy ow one up six nothing on over rich and Andy be surprised if Nico doesn’t take a shot Off the Wall here or just directly for poo it’s hard to get that poino down all the way down it is um Ball’s not going to get there no I had a ball similar to that in our game yeah trying to roll it to the wall and it just at a certain point it just takes a turn paulino’s nice here and he got it great shot nice shot almost like a not your normal rolling because you got kind of elev get there well these backboards do come off quite a bit um the way I see it you can’t really split those two balls for the point split ball and Paulino with the with the green ball on the right can’t really split it there for the point I think you either got to come in from the left towards your own ball or all the way on the right and cut the green out to the right cuz that ball is just going to pop back there but now now actually Nico can take a soft shot on their own ball on the side there and that might end up uh pretty nice for them either way Etso is going to have two balls back yeah very nice so one point sitting there two balls back for Etso he’s got to just hit it easier said than done of course especially on these courts to get it to go 60 feet exactly where he want it to go oh he’s talking about hitting the backport first and putting re first spin on it to walk it out of there little cork screw ball that’s not what he’s doing though he might have just made two for red I think he did so he clipped the left kind of blocked the camera there clipped the left side of his own ball pushed it further into the corner his ball bounced out there and I think red has two threw that one away in the air might get lucky took away one mhm but a beautiful ball from Nico makes it 12 to 7 any of you who follow us on Instagram if you could take a second to go uh respond to that pickle ball comment underneath today’s video just let them know that you think their sport is stupid in rs’s better I’d appreciate it thank you Bey you know another family that’s good it’s the Barnett Family sure I’m keeping an eye on over over there Owen is rolling in some great points I know his brother Evan came in second at the SMS tournament last year mhm with Ryan sandron right second to the scalas Mario and felich second to the scalas so there’s two good families right there yeah that game is seven to2 in favor of the barnetts Frozen replay [Applause] very nice shot by AIO green is sitting three right now Fred’s going to have or I’m sorry it’s going to be Nico’s ball and wherever it goes Mario’s going to shoot it ideally Nico puts it right on Paulino oh just about gave himself a chance so Mario wants to hit the right side of that ball left side as we’re looking at it if he can hit it clean this should be three or four points got it beautiful game Four Points game over beautiful shot so Mario and Etso advance to face Jake Bower and Ryan omara and we have eliminated one more team what does that leave us with well they didn’t move that one up yet so we’ve got six teams remaining let’s take one more look at that game-winning shot tablets are a lot more easier to do this with beautiful while we wait our next game a word from our sponsors for today skips on the ridge [Music] for over 60 years family-owned skips on the ridge has delivered the purse you can’t afford to skip skips on the ridge all right thank you joining us in the booth a uh one of our four remaining undefeated players awaiting a surprise not to me you’re good friend Mike thank you you got Brandon and Shawn up have you played against uhlen no I’m not familiar with them uh they I think they’re locals I think they’re from Holly yep I thought they got eliminated last game that reminds me of a story I guess not far from it Brandon’s Brandon’s mom is a nun right and uh locally and um I one time this guy was walking out a drunk was walking out of a bar locally here and his mom the nun was out there on the street and this drunk hauls back and punches the nun knocks her on the ground and she’s laying she’s sitting on the sidewalk and he stands over the top of her and he goes you’re not so tough when you’re alone are you Batman that’s what I heard that’s that’s uh that would be Brandon’s mom so I I remember reading about that yeah it’s a pretty big story yeah well our thoughts and

the losers bracket winner of that game will face the winner of this game that we have have going on over on court 4 which like I said the barnets are up it is now 10 to 4 six teams left we got one two three four rounds left in this tournament so a few more hours to go and uh we think we’re going to run out of light we do have lights over on court one they’re not very bright not sure how the that’s 10 after 5 it’s going to be close not sure if the cameras can handle night vision we may have to get somebody out here with a flashlight to uh illuminate the balls actually uh Court 2 has better lighting than Court one I noticed that last night yeah you think yeah no I know so well at least the way the bulbs were shining last night maybe the solar patterns have shifted I know but you see the light in the middle pole it’s facing Court too wonder if we could slide it over turn it around how he show up eventually I’m not sure uh all right’s walking his See’s walking over with his mother a nice shot of the mother the mother’s son moment nice to her to come hang out today especially in this with this weather yeah with this weather and sure an emotional day for both of them Etso did say in the opening ceremonies here that he lost his brother around this time last year so our thoughts go out to the krois certainly happy to and honored to be able to come play here uh and you know honor honor the memory of his father and his brother my most what’s the word I say that a lot notable uh most preent what does preent mean PR pre preent uh it’s kind of like uh preent means preent relevant yeah it’s a combination of relevant and and let’s just go with relevant well that’s not the word I’m looking for telling my clearest memory of uh playing against Ugo was at the oh must have been to8 2010 somewhere in there maybe 2009 uh San Anthony’s summer St Anthony’s tournament on Labor Day weekend at the St Anthony’s Festival in santaa Falls New York I remember playing a game with you dad against Ugo and ET late at night oh yeah I remember at the uh there was a carnival there it was a festival see Anthony Festival is that yes there was a carnival uh it’s Fairgrounds so there’s like a carnival and then next to it there was a Bachi tournament which was what three days is it a three-day tournament it was yeah yeah 3-day tournament outdoor courts not too dissimilar to these kind of outdoor you know they’re only I think these get more attention uh more more work done on them but oh yeah those courts had gravel in them and um they were much rougher than these yeah it’s been a while so I don’t remember but it’s my clearest memories playing against them under the lights there at about midnight or 1:00 a.m. somewhere around there uh the St Anthony’s Festival this is when you were 12 right yeah I was probably 12 or 13 yeah I remember that you you were great we played uh we won about seven games in a row that that tournament yep I’ve only gotten worse maybe you have to channel your 12-year-old self yeah how do I do that well if I can Channel my uh I’m let’s see more bowls of cereal maybe that’s the secret not enough bowls of cereal lately but yeah remember playing against Ugo and Etso Under The Lights there that was a I remember the feeling of finding out that you have to play against Ugo and Etso like oh oh crap that’s how I usually felt too oh watch the cameras actually one time uh Fury and I teamed up with Ugo and etzio for the world Ser I think it was a World Series it was a tournament at the toana club yeah yeah thank you Dino we’ve just been gifted whole wardrobe three shirts cool wow the Waterside shirts Dino just brought us a couple of Waterside shirts he must have known we were cold I missed Doug’s joke was it a good one this is still we’re still warming up so we are going to do two warmup frames um yes I’ll go with yes not not his finest work but I enjoyed it nonetheless 11 to 11 now on Court four Richie zakala and Andy Sweeney mounting a comeback wow there’s Shadows unel has appeared out of nowhere yeah this is just a warm-up frame like I said at least I’m assuming it is based on decisions that were made so loser this game ties for fifth and sixth the winner moves up to at least fourth and with a chance to move up more did you talk about the prize money no I don’t know anything about the prize money actually I don’t either I haven’t thought about prize money in a few months yeah good luck boys good and with this Paulino toss by Ryan Omar the fin our losers bracket quarterfinal is underway come on Mars and that ball is not the best oh my leg are warming up I can’t reach can’t reach the sunlight yeah well we’re so well protected I think yeah I wonder if the courts are speeding up slowing down yeah speeding up I would expect if you can survive the elements you can make it teams that were able to adapt and persevere through the elements are now able to enjoy the sunshine and just play their game three balls back for ETO and Mario ball I heard Jake say I don’t think so almost sold ito’s going to shoot the ball on the left 42 got it beautiful hit might be three might be but I think he kicked that one ball out at two-pointer Shadows are gone was nice while it lasted I wonder what Andy had to say on here earlier oh you weren’t on with him no I like to see shots like that lofted reminds me of the good old days I think that’ll work holy nice not sure how much of that I got on camera that ball got about 15t of air under that ball that came down wet think we’re going to see another one yeah they’re in same thing you did but uh a lot less air a lot less air says Mario preparing the camera Camas for uh last ball of the frame Jake and Ryan do have the point with that red ball on the right iio looks like he if he comes in on this side he must be trying to steal it from from behind that’ll do it if it stops that’s good nice over on court four I see the barnets are losing it looks like 1114 ah that game was uh was it 11 to3 something like that they were way up right 10 it was it was 10 to three for sure so an 11 to1 run 11 to3 to start off the game and then since then 11 to1 or I’m sorry 10 to three to start the game and then 11 to one the other way yeah it’s 1411 now the barnetts fighting for their tournament lives I see Andy Sweeney has two balls back so I can’t really see the lay of the balls over there so I don’t know exactly what’s going on shooting for game probably he didn’t like that shot whatever happened yeah he didn’t have kind words Richie’s got the last ball interesting lines these guys are taking yeah but even our ball go on court for the Barnett’s just scored a point they’re down looks like 14 to 12 is that right Michael yeah yeah yes two balls back for Rich and Andy yeah this is a curious decision this is wow that was to force Mario NSU to use their last ball so as it turns out the decision to shoot that last ball is going to work out at least yeah work out for Mario nsio they had two decent points in there uh if he hit that ball it was going to you know of course it was going to fso hit that ball was going to take out their own ball which it did that ball is going to be a little long I think but figuring that you know they’re going to leave that one good point there Jake with the ball back being the shooter had an opportunity to force them to use their last ball and maintain the ball [Music] Advantage but he’s splits the ball in Paulino and Mario neio going to get two more points see that shot again he just missed five zip Tang gr tonic please thanks dog hey you want to I don’t know if that got in it’s close looks like Red’s in from here and that’s game over on court four four Andy Sweeny Rich zakala zakala move on so they will await the winner of this game and that’ll be the semifinals that matchup will be the semi-finals of the losers bracket rich and Andy guaranteed at least fourth as will the winner of this game kind of a similar decision in this Frame uh for Mario neio as last frame little bit of room to point in uh but they had a decent ball there and a tough real messy shot even if Etso hits that ball it’s going to be real tough to make make it go clean those balls I don’t think are quite close enough for Etso to shoot his own G to try and cover the line keep it in front of Paulino got a five nothing lead you know you give up one point even two one is ideal here but even two points uh you don’t mind beat the point each team has one Ball Deep see if Jake can recover from his miss last frame really wasn’t much of a Miss just uh split his Target perfectly and somehow went between that one though he will tell you is a Miss got another chance though try and put his team on the board got it nicely done five to one losing our camera umbrellas I think what is he doing I don’t know think he’s taking his umbrellas and going home we’ll have to Source another umbrella or two did he uh no this one’s still here over there about to Billy Barnett talking I don’t think so I heard him say it we’re about to leave me the thumbs down mid hey thank you dog beautiful solid hit from Jake Bower and replay is Frozen got freaking over there Mario scallet who forc Jake and Ryan to use their last ball it’s going to be a good one if it stops courts are speeding up a little bit now with the as they dry out have people Che hear people cheering in the bar they they’re showing the games they’re showing the broadcast in the bar and they’re reacting to the to the local team I did tell you water right which one oh okay I don’t think that beat it I think uh I think Mario’s ball’s still good by guys great to see you Bill good tournament you coming to Mechanicville I think so signed us up father’s week yeah yeah Billy good to see you all right see you guys see you in a couple weeks see see you Pat good to see you now we’re not going to M Sonic World World Series see you in a couple weeks no we’re not going to M no I see somewhere down the road World Series World Series probably yeah you don’t have to get up oh he’ll be broadcas I don’t know if I’m G to go safe travel see you again nice Mee nice to meet you all started safe travs nice tournament you guys won a buch yeah we did all right I think we uh we won four we won four we lost shooting Paulino possibly no I guess the red ball was in not to worry made some room one left although can’t make a mistake with this ball can’t make a mistake with this ball it’s a good one puts it right back six to one not exactly I mean the red ball must have been in if he was shooting it otherwise the only logistic logical logistic the only logical shot there of course if they were in would have been Paulino but good hit unfortunate combo watch the uh watch out see Matt good to see you we’re not going to’s nervous thank you probably probably see you there all right see you guys okay great ball from Jake three ball ball is down now for Holly winner of this game will play against rich zakala and Andy Sweeny for third place for at least third place Mario stepping up to shoot that ball as Etso had to attend to his tournament director duties and unfortunately missed one of the downfalls of it direct to tournament beautiful shot at you that’ll make up for it and that ball is no good Mario and iio got two points sitting there they’re opening up a big lead that’ll do it beautiful shot beautiful roll 9 to one got to see that shot again yeah I should go on the Highlight Reel sure that one will end up on Instagram boy Mars I shoot out here yeah they’re all playing short Pinos and as the quarts dry out they become a little bit easier to shoot on yeah I think uh could see that one coming feeling very confident after the stick and just barely missed but it seemed like he rushed himself a little bit on that shot but his partner did he pick him up just a little bit short yeah before he rolled that ball Etso said got to make two here it’s a dangerous idea especially on these courts trying to bump a ball up for two to try and copy to try and find that exact line to bump a ball for two that’s real hard to do here and instead he kind of just sailed his ball and essentially wasted it two Reds sitting there one ball left 9 to3 it’s getting awful quiet around here another short Paulino yeah I wonder how many of our players are sitting inside watching at the bar I don’t think they’re very many I think the one undefeated team is in there one of the two undefeated teams I should say wow why you nuts you’re going to have two balls back this is a big ball from Jake not much he can do besides ideally he’d like this one to end up near the green ball but it’s not going to it’s going to be in the other side and behind Paulino AIO should be able to take it clean and uh yeah paulino’s good too they got a ball on the backboard a lot of good things can happen not sure why iio lined it up from that side I would have thought he’d be shooting it from the other side of the court to give himself a chance at hitting Paulino especially on this shot because he could get three if he hits Paulino that’ll work though good recovery 10 to three well again if you hit poino you got to hit it solid and if you don’t like if you just skimmed it and it went five or 10 feet then the red would have had three or four points l in there sure okay I think that’s the reason I’ll buy that makes sense better be strong kid you’re all right very nice ball from Ryan very nice surgery by etal yeah everybody’s executing their shots ET SE looks loose he’s kind of strutting around he looks very comfortable right now curious decision not to shoot that off the wall but I think shooting it straight uh to uh give him give himself a chance to stick around and shoot the next two balls for four I kind of like that call down 10 to three um still a long way to go in this game aggressive call didn’t quite work out I think he could have accomplished the same thing off the side board and it might have been an easier shot but Jake has been shooting well oh wow unfortunate break though for Etso that Ball’s near the board and it’s deep I think Jake will take a shot at it for two straight at it or off the board he’s going straight again and he missed missed again oh wow I don’t know I could I could see I think I would have gone off the board with that it was close enough to the board I would have gone soft softly off the board yeah um he had to push it about 15 feet or so I think Jake has that shot too this is these are his home courts I’m sure he’s got it I mean the underhand shot I know I don’t know if I’ve seen Jake shoot underhand though but even good point even so Toano you still could have shot that backhand off the board if you wanted to could have worked out just seemed like an easier shot on both of his shots to shoot it off the board yeah this ball should tail towards Paulino I hit the wrong button there right before I shot two balls down for each team I think it makes a lot of sense to shoot this again they might have two now it does make quite a difference whether or not this second point is in in terms of ball Advantage uh because if that ball’s in and Jake shoots it then they’re still going to have to use their last ball but don’t matter now great ball for Mario giving Jake a chance to combo on Paulino got it he got it clean that might be too yeah I think it is too nice shooting by Jake bow 11 to5 now that he took his sunglass is off that’s what it was I saw Mario switch the lenses on Jake’s sunglasses before this game is that is that what he was doing great spot for that ball from Mario green does have Green’s got the left side of the backboard red owns the right side if Paulino goes down Jake takes it clean and red has two points sitting there might be looking at shooting four balls depending on where Mario puts this one this ball will decide the rest of that frame and leaving that short will change the strategy for Jake and Ryan uh oh oh wow [Music] wow I want to send down ball just turned right into the green one it did yeah he did he didn’t roll it towards a green one the court took it there forcing Etso to beat it last ball the frame if it stops it’s good 125 like I said winner this game will face Andy Sweeney and Rich Calla that’ll be the semifinals of the losers bracket nice ball huge Target though for Jake wouldn’t be surprised to see Paulino go down to the back you think that’s what they want have they been winning the backboard points I haven’t seen a lot of backboard points but they got to switch something up right 12 to five they’re getting beat most frames now Mario and ETS are still have the point and they have the ball Advantage again now although that is a beautiful ball but ETO can take it clean let’s see if he goes off the board this time doesn’t look it I think he’s pretty much crotch it I don’t think a ball will fit there oh tried to crotch it and he just a little too perfect it’s a red Point huh I was wrong ball did fit and that was just a perfect shot and a 4-2 this break for Jake and Ryan three balls down for Mario nsio Jake and Ryan now have the advantage again I think a shot Off the Wall is in order that looks short to here for Jake and Ryan surprised that we’re rolling ball Advantage you imagine any any way that you can force the other team to use their last ball right yeah I’m so I’m surprised at the very least you don’t make it short but I wouldn’t have rolled on that talking about shooting it now yeah I don’t know Paulino got to have Paulino for it to be good yeah beautiful shot turned out good yeah well you had to like roll it in because remember if you throw up in the air yeah they’re talking about angle ETO wants to spin one in off the backboard Mario’s telling him you can’t throw it hard because it bounces out what do you think Michael what would you do there uh either off to sideboard depending on how it looks from the other end of the Court off the sideboard on the left there or spin one in from the right side I might want to go with the two cushion yeah probably sideboard backboard yeah when the game is over yeah see if Etso tosses it in the air a roll off the side I think should be good oh wait a minute no no no no yeah that’s one red one R the entry the one it’s one right get my motion standing look like we oh one red yeah it was one red wasn’t green yeah I guess that didn’t come in quite enough theall let me throw right the man I’m Lally drinking someone else yeah it window great recovery backb was dead that would be great but it’s not and uh got one hopefully they’re still in rough shape the serpentine that went left then right then left again back Wall’s dead right so that was a good the birds are chirping the skies are looking a little more amicable still fairly cloudy but friendly clouds is it amicable or amiable I think those are two different words who’s the English teacher I’m retired I know I no teach English no more exactly what I thought Mario scal beautiful shot oh I uh Jake’s asking how much if if there’s enough room for the ball to go behind that Paulino I think it depends how many frogs are behind the backboard right there toad somebody can chat somebody clear that up in the chat please what’s the difference between a frog in a toad I think Green’s still in Green’s going to have the last ball of the frame and uh Rick is up against post well we learned that frogs say Ribbit but we don’t learn much about toads Toad’s croak Frog’s Ribbit cro and [Music] toads it’s going to be back board to the right backboard probably a little over a foot to the right of okay that’s a big foot try and walk it in on the left ETO is experimenting and we’re having a good time I’m just happy it’s not raining I would enjoyed that while we were playing but it’s like a sha Shank Redemption four hours of mud and now you get to play in the money games in the nice conditions sha Shank Redemption mhm what’s the connection I don’t understand crawled through a river of crap came out clean on the other side is that how he did it that’s what Morgan Freeman says oh another one of those is there a name for those shots caruma three balls down for Green Third ball coming for Jak and Ryan Beauty live very relaxed environment all these players ETO I like this move dropping your ball while you think forces you to make a decision before you pick up the ball something Jose talked about I was going to say Yeah in the interview Jake will be shooting for four got it two beautiful sticks from Jake bow and a four-point frame to make it 13-1 I tell you since he took his sunglasses off yeah for those of you who didn’t watch the uh interview with Jose the great Jose bolto took some

of that game will play against the winner of this game on court one got it before like I said earlier preceding the championship game we will have a uh I don’t know what to call it a a tribute a tribute to Ugo and uh we’ll have Etso in here to talk about his father a little bit and what what brings us together today walk us through some of the memories of the years of playing with his father so I think uh and we got like I said earlier we got a cool video I think a lot of you will enjoy I didn’t realize you had a video I didn’t realize you had a video yep okay well they’re done at the other end of the court so I think I can think we’re safe to talk we Rick Mullen and Doug Hammond versus Brandon comden and Shawn Brooks Sean’s one with no shoes Sean is the one with no shoes this is Brandon comden with the first ball of the winners bracket finals good distance a little bit wide dog wastes no time in beating it we are in the also in the first frame of our losers bracket semis on court two you know they’ve been sitting a long time the winners especially uh yeah yeah especially uh Sean and brandan Brandon Brandon sorry I know many brandons who hate being called Brandon I know my mistake I I didn’t my glasses on one Brandon Who hates being called brandan it’s okay you’re forgiven but they didn’t take any practice balls or anything oh like like before the game you know when you when you got to sit for a couple hours and there’s Courts open yeah I’m not sure how many tournaments these guys have played in uh I I I don’t know them I don’t know anything about them I only know a little a little bit about Shawn because uh we happened to be chatting in the bar just a few minutes ago anything interesting come up well I was telling him a story about how I used to play tournaments in my bare feet but he was telling me he’s where he’s from and some of the jobs he’s had he used to manage this place he said can’t get much more local than that yeah so he’s like the Jason wisneski of the Hickory Ridge Golf and RV Resort previously not not at the moment but he was yeah nice shot by Rick there opening up some room should be a three-point frame to start it off for Rick and Doug we look cold yes Russell we are cold thank you and I’m about I’m still another one and a half gen and tonics from starting to feel warmer two a little bit short on that last ball from Rick Mullen and the other court uho and Mario have a lead one to nothing as hard as you can Doug ran off the court after he released that one he was ashamed of that one he wanted nothing to do with it interesting from that corner rolling from that corner we haven’t seen much of that have we no of course these are the two undefeated teams so guessing they would know the lines pretty well okay I have my first formal complaint if the bartender is listening the straws are shorter than the cups so my straw keeps falling down into my cup yeah that’s why I haven’t been drinking because I hit the microphone with it consider my complaint filed two balls back for Rick Mullen I wonder if those frogs are still over there in court 4 toads nice shot the bartender thank you I’ll take one what a great bartender what a what a great staff here that took about 35 seconds we now have straws thank you Miranda now if she could just turn the heat up out here you still got to move your mic and the other qut it’s a one to one okay it’s got to be a better wow it’s like uh it’s a new world with the straws yeah the flow rate with these straws compared to the other straws the other ones are like stirrers almost oh they’re they’re cocktail straws yeah they they are but but what but they’re like stirs they’re like St but with this new straw my tangar tonic is flying might need to pause the game to send Doug for another one Shan Brooks third ball of the frame for the Green Team he’s going to make two points great ball Doug says they may have two I think it’s clearly two don’t you well d got a better angle than us but from here it certainly looks like too good ball at least beat the second one and that’s in a really good spot Brandon wants him to shoot it calling for the hit and stick for three dangerous territory I think green still has one good hit uh there was a good chance of comboing there on the other court uh Etso Mario are up two to one that’s you just made a nice stick over there yeah that one’s empty ETO has misplaced this drink bartender different people kept coming over and drinking from one of these glasses Community cocktail brand it seems to like rolling from the corners huh yeah he does maybe that’s the strategy on a courts like this yeah he’s he’s the only one I’ve seen today doing that let’s see who do these gentlemen beat on their way here they beat most recently rich theala and Andy Sweeny nice hit before that they beat another local team Keith loots and Aaron Bower and in their first game of the day they won a close one against Bill Barnett and his son Owen 16 to 14 no thank you nice ball from Rick forces sha to use his last ball o yeah right might do they have two there Brandon says it’s one plenty of room though for Rick it’ll be five to one Rick seems to think that red on the left might be in too Rick says it’s in might be six to one it isn’t yeah not even going to measure six to one wow I hear Andy complaining two to two over there in court two nice hit great hit from Andy Sweeney lofted that one out there not sure if you can hear the conversation I hope you can’t short Paulino a lot of short paos today duck walks every time he throws a bad ball he’s got to distance himself from it Brandon comden going to fall to Paulino dad who knows I think they all I think they go towards the board most of the time there yeah I think you got to get it pretty much the where Paulino is for it to break that one’s straight yeah I think that that’s about where the ridge is I think if you cross over there kind of where Paulino is oh Doug Doug speaking Italian now sorry sorry to interrupt it’s okay looks like it’s four to two over there on the other court in favor of who’s the green here I must say Richie oh Richie and Andy Richie’s got a good first ball in there third ball coming for sha and Brandon Doug’s giv us partner the off here to shoot this ball and the next one for possibly Four Points 6 to1 16o game I like being aggressive a lot of room for error and a lot of got the first one a lot of room for things to go good three Reds sitting there wherever this ball goes it’s going to get shot ideally like to get it near the red one got to be online with Paulino to get it to cross over no it’s going to fall to the right the only good thing about that is that it could could easily combo on one of the other balls that’s that’s one a lot of people think that way you put in front of their closest ball hope B it combos does have the point oh wow yeah nice spot for that ball 62 frame saver kind of gets in your head a little bit thatall trying to hit it perfectly end up missing from the corner like that ended up being a pretty darn good ball on this W straight he uses a lot of arm when he shoots long ball on that shot obviously I think that red ball’s in yeah Rick has a ball left right yeah that works although Paulino is in a very playable spot on the board and uh I think you don’t for it yeah well I think that red this could be a four point three or four points oh just tickled it he puts a little bit of a hook on I think uh that that’s with uh if he hits this that ball off course sorry if he hits this down to that back right corner I think that was that was going to be four red I think so that’s two frames in a row where Rick has had a chance to uh hit a ball for four and both times just that time he hit the ball just didn’t quite move it enough I’m sorry this game well just gonna this game could easily be 14 to1 you know 12 13 14 to one right now hope on the other court we’ve got uh Andy and Richie are up seven to two and ETO has found himself a jonic don’t know if it’s his he found one but he’s g red still in oh come on Doug what if Doug has any measuring jokes I would be surprised if he doesn’t have a joke about just about anything well I can imagine the subject of his measuring jokes well he was actually telling one yeah he was that’s when I muted the microphone h four ball waser well three ball waser for Doug Hammond Brandon sha are going be out of balls after this one stops rolling I think it’s a fourball waser Brandon sha poino does that count as a fourball waster if the other team throws the first ball uh that’s a good question could be I guess not you know I I guess it’s not that’s two this is the third straight potential huge frame for Rick and Doug Rick having to adjust from shooting to Rolling never easy to do certainly made much more difficult by the conditions here he did it on the second one great adjustment it’s going to be close oh not even going to look at it SE it yeah I’m not sure that that was in not sure either see let see if I can pull it up here it’s hard to tell there but yeah conceding that third point there that was very close this game could very eily be over now nice shot from Sean Brooks oh there’s a mistake from the corner yeah you think that you roll down the right side here might John to bump his own up beautiful pretty well blocked I imagine Rick’s going to have to shoot down the left board at least for the ball possibly for pao these ball these boards there’s not a lot of action off the board so as long as you get it to the board you take kind kind of a lower angle there’s not a lot of action but they’re inconsistent think yeah yeah dog says he’s coming off the wall lower angle Off the Wall long as you get it to the board it should be good at least take away oh wow yeah that one came off right yeah but like you’re saying it’s inconsistent that one came off more than I expected it to and a lot of it has to do with not just the board but the court along the boards after you hit sometimes the court will suck it back into the board and some pieces some places there’s uh a little bit of grass growing little clumps and then the balls will roll off there is some floor to account for last ball the frame Brandon it’s Sean Rick and Doug have had multiple balls back nearly every frame this game and that should be an easy three on court two scores 7 to three in favor of oh Andy’s moving it up nine 9 to three in favor of rich and Andy and that’s two number 12 incoming 123 over here winner of this game will face the winner of I’m sorry loser of this game will face the winner of the game on court 2 winner of this game will be into the finals undefeated we’ll have to lose twice in the finals or win once I should say Brandon com can I make it I don’t think so not quite nice shot of had court by Andy Sweeny I don’t think so think R is still third ball coming for Brandon it’s Sean I think the call on that last ball was to bump the green ball same shot that we saw coming down the other way last frame think we’re going to try that again and that’s going to be two MH got to move something I imagine you shoot try and crotch that front ball there you might take out both green balls Paulino might move a lot of things could happen you got three balls back to the other team’s one yeah I’d do it hard I’d give it a I’d give it a whack yeah sure I don’t think Paulo’s going to move that much I think kind of medium speed your your own ball might stick around and make the point what do you think I I’d open it right up I’d shoot hard okay see what Rick decides hard is the call I hit the right side of the ball which in that case I think was the wrong side yeah I I I would have guessed he would have gone off the board again might have been could have been trying to um little late on the camera there sorry good hit he got one good point and last ball the frame is going to be dogs that is a good ball can’t see it behind Sea’s head green Ball’s got the point I imagine Doug hits it off the board this could be two with the right speed not the easiest shot though no cuz it’s a little further off the board then then I would be comfortable shooting off the board it’s that’s maybe six six and a half inches off the board you’re saying that’s too far off the board um I’d be more comfortable if it was more like 4 in off the board oh yeah but it’s it’s still 4 Ines off the board a ball can’t go in there that’s that’s still there’s only an inch or so for a ball to fit between there if you’re not comfortable shooting that off the board then what are you comfortable shooting off the board bit of a break there though for sha and Brandon and a nice opening ball maybe could be a momentum shift on the other court it’s up to 11 to3 now for Andy and Richie it’s an important hit there from Rick two big balls from Brandon a good jot two big hits from Rick Frozen Barefoot Sean good distance took a little bit of a left on though dog with a slightly different line it’s about a 15inch pointer so that’s a ball that Sean would like to have back 14 to four ah the sun is just peeking down enough to get in my eyes it does look really beautiful I don’t think the cameras be able to pick it up over there but the sky is really beautiful the sun shining through the clouds like something out of a painting the individual raise painting by Max Ernst that’s what it reminds me of of course I think he used a little bit more paining what we see now your mother had a few paintings like that in her house didn’t she she did 11 to four now in court two like Andy was always line on that that’s a joke third ball the frame for Shawn and Brandon is a beauty but Rick could easily take out two of those greens with a solid hit here this is pretty high angle for him to be shooting yeah faor favoring Paulino possibly from this angle solid hit might still be green you think no no oh yeah it is thg Doug’s rolling wow well was green out of balls I think Green’s out of ball Green’s out of balls handshakes game’s over sorry I missed the ball in uh when I was admiring this guy there so Rick Mullen and Doug Hammond undefeated into the finals a commanding victory over our other undefeated team 16 to4 and they await the results of the next two games the first of which will be the winner of this game on court two versus sha and Brandon and this game was 11 to3 it’s now 11 to six closing the Gap they’ll probably put another short Pao that’s that’s been their Remo shorten on the board to Doug just told Barefoot Sean over here he just told him for having six toes you guys play pretty good that’s hell of a ball budy Del I gotta say the air out here smells wonderful it’s beautiful out here yeah not sure how we went between everything there kind of hard to tell from our camera angles that we have available to us on court too oh my got see thought he had it there turned out at the end Andy Sweeny for two I told you he says I wonder what he told him 13- six and the enrich loser this game will take third place winner will advance to the finals of the losers bracket loser takes fourth place loser of this game takes fourth place winner will advance to the finals of the losers break oh that hopped right over poino I believe yeah I think just at the last second it hops right on yep think he had a dead center thir ball coming from Mario ETO and the fourth ball here come on comes the last ball he going to kiss off and I think he made the point I think Andy shoot some p over here you got it it’s going to be game and that’s a game let’s see Mario take fourth place Andy and Richie move on I imagine they’ll play the the next game on court one again at e SC go well for us what color you get red Andy they’re taking the warm-ups for the uh this is the winner of the losers bracket for I can’t go anywhere without receiving a drink it’s not a complaint no it’s not I might take my shoes off I used to love playing with my shoes off saw I was in there watching you move the cameras around you making me anxious I forgot I forgot the buttons yeah I haven’t used I haven’t manipulated them in a while I’m taking off good tournament Mario Mario thanks for hey do you have an update on how your your dad’s playing I have no idea actually he just called me yeah I got a Miss

the last time we played here two years ago Phish Phish won that tournament what name keep Rick rck oh this game already started wasting no time no warm-up frames this game is already three nothing we got a text about 20 minutes ago saying that uh there was some static oh well I hope it’s gone nobody complained in the chat so I didn’t get it oh wow stuck in his hand there yeah oh and that one fell from his head last ball the frame is going to belong to the panel for zip Andy today I heard him when he got here going around introducing himself to PE to people you know a lot of people of course recognize Andy Sweeney from uh his role as the quote unquote panel bot underground Facebook group uh but I heard him when he got here today Andy of course the gentleman on the left with the visor there I heard him walking around when he got here introducing himself to people as the panel was he yeah hi the panel he said it to me I said Andy I know I know who you are that’s funny so winner of this game will face Rick Mullen and Doug Hammond in the finals and they will have to win twice loser will take third place and did we ever find out what the prize money is no we never did but that’s heals right there if you want to ask him Etso what’s uh third place surprise 950 00 450 and then three so this game is for 150 bucks and a chance to win more and a chance to win another 450 ETO did I hit that yeah it it just it shakes the camera three more for Rich and Andy lackluster last uh hour or so of bachchi from Sean and Brandon tough to that they had to sit for a while and then kind of recollect themselves and and they never really got it go on that last game and I think they would have benefited from a little practice before that previous game who beat Richie and Andy earlier let’s see do you know nope oh these guys did I don’t think you’re reading the bracket correctly oh yeah I’m sorry yeah you’re right I thought that was the losers bracket 1614 they beat him yes so this is a rematch of the winners bracket semifinals from earlier 1614 Shawn and Brandon beat andyan Rich folks stay tuned after this game game for a tribute to Ugo kotti the man in whose honor we are competing today swinging a Miss from the panel that’ll work three balls down for andian Rich third ball coming for Shawn and Brandon I’m sure they would love to eliminate that green ball somehow what would you do here Michael oh you put yourself in a tough spot seven to zero shoot it sure get a ball down there cuz they they could have shut B know well not so much to get a ball down there more my eyes would be more just to be aggressive and hope you get lucky on something you I mean you it should have been shot the ball before and now it’s going to be nine nothing yeah doesn’t help that they had uh balls that weren’t super competitive there oh the balls on the back weren’t too bad especially on these courts those weren’t those balls weren’t that bad if you lean way over here and look up you could see a patch of Blue Sky well there’s some over there over there actually it’s all blue over there look at that wow wow Nothing But Sunshine for the rest of the day looks like knock on wood otherwise we’re going to have to scramble for another umbrella for that to cover that camera nice point for Brandon comden Mr Andy Sweeny yeah oh Paulino like you said tough to hit these paos all the way down to the end yeah you either have to hit it on the right bounce or keep just keep your ball real low and another opportunity oh solid hit for Shan and Brandon to have uh for Sean and Brandon have a couple balls back and get on the board yeah yeah they got two points get on the board it’s a good Ball but that’s uh in a very removable spot we did see some questionable play call last frame I don’t like this angle do you Sean and Brandon no they’re putting their own ball in play quite a bit although they don’t come off the board much so even though he hit the board 10 feet before the ball still a good hit and this is going to be four points have a nine to Four game holy we scored that this the problem when you start drinking at 10:00 a.m. and at 7 p.m. it get a little concerned are you drunk use it the bar is playing a factor in today’s tournament I think they made some good money at the bar today I hope so I don’t know what drinks cost here I haven’t had to buy one yet I know what people keep offering us it’s nice yeah I appreciate it appreciate it very much Randy just bought me two drinks I went in there to use the the VIP room and uh Randy wouldn’t let me leave without a drink and a drink token nice line from Rich theala what a ball I know who’s driving home tonight then yeah that was my plan executed to a T gonna make it too bad we don’t have the Audi from Detroit could get home in about two hours not if I’m driving the sun is shining directly above my monitor now might need my sunglasses would you mind great uh I think they’re in the in the car door do you mind grabbing them please my sunglasses your Shades yeah yeah I’ll go grab thank you third ball coming for Sean and Brandon and that’s oh I’m sorry that’s their last that was big mistake there think that ball should have been off the backboard on the left give themselves a chance to for that to happen quite a bit of room now for Andy and Rich I don’t know what what is the what are we measuring what’s the discussion here just close your eyes and throw it in the corner you get three points oh maybe that paulina’s a little further out than it looks from down here yeah Paulino I guess you can see better on the screen I’m looking in person that Paulino is uh the same to be more easily accessible from the backboard I don’t think it matters whether or not this point is in I think this shot is the same either way they’ve got at least one there not sure what the call was after that measure Rich probably bang went off the back right on the left there in the same spot that Andy just did nicely done that’s at least two thank you Dad welcome thank you I can hear I can hear you guys arguing in the bar about oh maybe not hard to hear through my headset thought they’re arguing about who has a point two five more points between Andy and Rich and championship game matchup against Rick Mullen and Doug Hammond of course winner this game will have to win twice in the finals Rick and dog are undefeated this Ball’s taken a turn and then another turn that looked like it was headed for No Man’s Land for a second Rich says it’s out by just a few inches Andy’s hitting the foot breaks Shan brander going to have three balls back this could be another big frame huh could be I think there’s enough of a window there this is prime for Brandon’s crosscourt roll from the corner see if it works little left right left right beautiful ball wow they going to make it oh yeah oh yeah wow yeah it’ll come back look at the points look at those points there’s the line I guess from the corner two fourpoint frames for Shan Brandon making it interesting nice catch it’s about a 40 41 and 1/2 foot Paulino how many inches is that quick how many inches and 41 and A2 fet don’t stall oh if you’re going to be like that I’m not going to tell you okay good answer nice line from Rich copying Brandon’s line from the corner there Shan Brooks ball can definitely go clean good shot got some cheerleading going on at the other end of the court I love it that’s a buch needs cheerleaders I was saying the other week we should have a powderpuff game I don’t know if that’s just like a New York High School thing but it’s where the the uh cheerleaders and the football players swap places for a game the cheerleaders play the game and the football players cheerlead what’s that Sam I don’t know if that would really get us anywhere be fun to watch who do you think would be the best cheerleader which which bot player would be the best cheerleader well let’s see what qualities do we need here I mean Andy Zimmerman is is comes the Mind quickly well let’s see that’s a tough one red has the point two balls back for Mr Andy sweny that one’s good Point number 13 potentially on the way answer somebody like Jimmy Pisano I mean he’s oh jimmy’d be a great cheerleader he’d be a great cheerleader he’s solid base that’s your grees that last ball was a little bit short 128 winner this game goes home with $300 lose or winner loser this game goes home with $300 winner this game gets at least 450 possibly another 450 on top if they win their next two what do you think about that decision try and point around that ball I didn’t hate it they do stick to the walls pretty well right kind of they don’t really stick to the walls but there’s kind of a bit of a gutter along the walls they they’ll hang on the wall for a few a little while and that is would like that to come down a little bit more around the red ball and hide as it sits should be plenty accessible for Andy but rich rich is suggesting just a kind of a Long Point to push that ball and keep your own ball around I don’t know if I uh I don’t know if I love that call this ball could I like I like that better I think uh Nice Shot there for Andy I it’s with the unreliability of the boards I think there was a good chance that ball if you try and finesse it doesn’t come out enough and you push it into Paulino or well yeah I think that would be the concern for me is that you push that ball into Paulino beautiful ball there oh there’s a nice Volo Shan Brooks yeah let’s see it does the panel Volo the panel speaks but does he Volo that sun is ripping through the clouds now I might have to go get my shades I should have gotten them when I went to the car you got your hat right yeah but still not good enough no not if I’m sitting down no trying to push Paulino Brandon weld it through the Gap and the last ball is on the way for the Green Team told just says beautiful ball Green’s got one Sean will try and here for one poo still green though at least one green just one just the one good hit not a great break 13 to8 I need a shorter chair that’s what I need or I need to raise my monitor maybe we could that’s fine I’ll survive that sun is shining brightly these next three points represent $50 each for the Green Team and he says he couldn’t even see it in the sun got to pull his visor down I think we need Billy Barnett’s uh towel to hang right there yeah that would be nice we do have an umbrella will that help that was stolen from us no there’s this one here oh I’m me to try it I don’t I don’t know how I think a towels work best just right right there two balls back for green one ball back for red Michael if you move over here maybe you can see better another good hit for Mr Sweeny all right thank you great ball from sea Force Rich to hit haven’t seen Rich hit yet this game from what I remember almost fell off the court did Andy say twoo green like the footwork on that shot oh look at that how agile spry live live yeah I think I’m not calling either game point well look who’s stepping into the booth here you got one for us Doug I need a subject measuring I was curious if you have any measuring jokes my got a great got any botchy jokes Doug um no I don’t I take this sport very seriously Mike I can tell some people say it’s big marbles they may be right but I don’t look at it that way for I’m neutral yeah te that’s how shallow I am game point sitting there now uh Andy and Rich are gonna have the ball advantage and that might not have even Beat It Richie’s going for the tape got any more bar jokes do you have any clean jokes at all I’m just not in the habit of telling clean jokes I’m just I just don’t hang around those kind of people I’m a doctor damn it not a bus Bo all my friends are jerks M basic I got one that’s uh it’s probably not bad I’ll go for it if you want to all right tell me when you’re ready nice bump there from Andy made two points can you hear it now or Doug’s going to tell us another joke you don’t to hello testing testy one to uh okay now I forgot the joke I’ll come up with it in a minute oh look at that shot nice shot by uh who’s that guy’s name Brandon SE oh Sean Nice Shot Sean there’s Brandon over there wave to the camera Brandon don’t look right at it though you don’t want to scare the kids okay this uh this father’s walking down the street with his son and they see two dogs making love in the field and the kid says to his dad hey dad what are they doing and he says they’re making puppies son later on the day the kid is running around his front yard playing with his friends he has to go to the bathroom he runs in the house runs up the stairs runs down the hallway to the bathroom and he notices his parents room is doors open and they’re making love on the bed so the little kid stops and says hey Dad what are you doing the father looks over his shoulder goes we’re making babies son the kid looks at him rubs his chin and he says can you flip mom over I’d rather have a puppy that’s pretty clean okay I’ll see you guys no that’s that’s Doug’s idea of a clean joke that’s a pretty clean joke wasn’t clean nice shot by Sean one red 159 was it clean Doug uh we’ll let the audience decide I’ll let you know if I get any complaints aun a little r what do you guys think a little I think so feels like a turning point Jud got all the through you know what I do that to a lot of people I ruin a lot of got to be supportive I like it I love it I want more can’t even see my screen I got a couple of jokes probably times after the game okay Andy Sweeny beautiful Paulino hit and Frozen replay yeah good uh Russell suggested Bernie as a cheerleader oh yeah oh yeah wouldn’t need a megaphone that’s for sure yeah Bernie from he’s a great guy yes he is Andy Sweeny are we surprised to see him shooting that ball no Sean Brooks nice speed Andy says it’s about four feet Richie is suggesting he comes off the back and he doesn’t like it wow squeaks it in there it’s game point that is game point it’s number 16 got to do something with it I imagine sha will try and beat it Richie does have one ball back for the game it’s going to be good to stay in the game to stay in the game yep to save the game what a ball that’s a clutch ball Richie’s got a choice to make no well oh look at this back missed the shot and beat it off the back gave himself a chance lined it up at the right angle I don’t see any hand handshakes yet backboard live line up in the right spot give yourself a chance to come back in handshakes and hug 16-9 Andy Sweeney and Rich theala over Shawn Brooks and Brandon comden they will advance to the finals they’ll be matched up against Mr Doug Hammond thank you very much and Rick Mullen Doug way to hi Mike hi

Rochester the first in augural was actually in Sonica Falls the SMS SMS yep and then uh we’ve had it here whatever the math is so we’ve had it here three four years yeah yeah sounds about right and uh I don’t think this place has been around long enough that your father would have played here right no no that’s a good question uh no he participated in the um hton St Rocco Festival that they have uh simultaneously with the SMS uh tournament they have on Labor Day weekend um so typically what happened there was uh the hton festival ran simultaneously with SMS St Anthony’s Festival in Sona Falls um so what happened there now SMS club would have a doubles tournament uh today and then the St Rocco Festival would have their Festival it was a one day on Sunday so typically um I mean just to say the way it is we we we had pretty good there at senica Falls so typically We we played there um but there were a few times that we didn’t Advance into Sunday so then we’d make these calls into uh Randy here in Holly and then we’d play in the uh the fourman tournament here in St Rocco not here but about 3 minutes from here and they had a you know one-day tournament uh same Rocco Festival excellent you know day of eating and drinking and playing Bachi there um and S rucko had usually they max out around 24 teams they do this in in one day and Sonic of Falls usually ran with 20 plus teams um on Labor Day weekend uh so typically we’d be as SMS and there would be a few times we’d come out here to S Rocco but uh dog we’re try to do something nice over here well what is he doing he’s doing hand he doing finger puppets invite him anywhere is the question can you invite him I mean I I how old are you uh we’re going to get it on the record I’ll know one thing if I if I do ever grow up I want to be just like you I mean that he’s got that like 20 year old kept in a 60 no you’re you’re in your 50s right 65 65 wow a youngster I thought you were like 72 to be honest but no no and we all love uh Dougs jokes what we do why don’t we talk a little bit about what inspired you to uh start this tournament in h in honor of your father and in the meantime I’ll show you you uh sent me some pictures and stuff I’ll display some of those if you want to talk about what we’re looking at a little bit and just a little bit about why uh you know your what drove you to create this tournament uh to honor your father’s Legacy and just some of your Mo most notable memories you know playing with your father over the years yeah definitely you may think twice about asking me for photos and and stuff uh in the future I think I I bombarded you with him but no um here’s my father in Rome New York uh his favorite and uh with Mama here uh we had a celebration here I can’t remember what it was um yeah it’s uh this is a celebration we did after Trump’s win and honestly if you want me to be honest with you we we did a celebration dinner after Trump’s win um I know I’m you know but so my father one of his uh big passions here was was the gardening and uh he had quite the bod even in his 70s there and his other passion here was garlic so we all know uh that was that plant uh that is a fall plant and then he picks up in the summer this was his big passion I wanted to make sure we saw this his big garden and uh and the tomatoes this was his pride and passion here and here’s him displaying a few um I wanted to uh send what this was his passion I mean botch gardening those were his were his two passions he wanted to show off his Tomatoes here so I think we have a few beef steaks for those for the gardeners out there you might know what I’m talking about but uh this is my father looking for a few um he was big into looking for scraps back in in something to keep him busy and keep his mind going he was into the scraps this was in uh I don’t know what this was 2007 2008 uh when we won Wickliffe this oh this was 2007 because we had larto there and this was big this was I think this was his first tournament bringing him there I had been to it a few years prior and uh I give big shout out to Gino and man I forget this gentleman on the right but that was back in the day when Gino actually did the postgame interviews they don’t they don’t uh they don’t do that these days over there I wish they would bring that back but Gino is the Magician on the mic he’s excellent at it props Gino it’s always a pleasure to see him um at wickliff when we go every year this was Loro Nino myself and my father I actually wore the tank top the the gray tank top I was actually getting ready to use it for for the finals I was going to pull it off no one really wants to see this this buff bod right that I have right now but uh I uh I had it ready to go but um that is Iconic that great tank top oh my God he wore it he wore it so well I he when we won this we we had a fan he had a fan a female fan that came out of the the stands never forget and uh she just I don’t know what she just kind of went to my dad and was like happy to see him I guess I don’t know but it was um he he pulls the tank off pretty well let’s just say that right he pulls the tank out pretty well this was uh we got second place at uh Rome and we went ahead and did some uh we did this picture in the backyard this is my dad pointing in Rome that’s classic yeah that’s his uh classic pointing uh move there um he threw with a backand which there’s a few people that I’ve seen that kind of throw them throw themselves to the ground when they throw but I don’t know if I’ve ever seen anyone throw with the back hand as you can see here in this pick and thank you for illustrating it perfectly in terms of uh um you know how he kind of rolled into his his stance but this this picture here was at the fonto I don’t know the exact name but this is in Laila or province of carda which is the town that uh that he was born and um I actually sent a picture of me at the fountain and I took it about three four years ago I kind of did the same pose that that he’s doing so I don’t know when that one might come in but that’s the reason why I sent one of me but yeah this is a very famous fountain in our province of Lila this was uh captured by the folks there in wickliff um this was the fin this we were going for our three-peat here this was our three repeat attempt uh no no no I I take that back this is when we woned the second year our second year in a row my dad going in for a point um we played a team from Toronto so would you say these are some of your proudest moments with him winning Wickliffe I’d say Wickliffe was up there in terms of uh as far as the proudest moments we had to bring the the trophy back there and that was the one year we did that um but yeah I would say winning our first tournament together which was kind of a local uh Italian Festival tournament you your first one is always your most memorable where where was that that was in our uh Hometown area it was a it was an Italian Festival uh I was 15 and we just started playing I had uh white white uh pants with a blue silk shirt I mean that that that’s that’s my memory of uh of our first tournament win but that was more of you know just a more simp Italian Festival atmosphere but um but Wickliffe was on the biggest of of uh Grand stains if you will that uh that we won but we we did pretty well in doubles tournaments um we won Amsterdam backto back years Syracuse uh Sonica Falls a few years um we had a good run we definitely had a good run we came close at at World Series he he actually won uh the World Series tournament 8889 the World Series they were getting 120 plus teams and uh they won it back to back the third year they came in third this is again his passion uh curious what you think your dad would have to say about the state of the game these days the state of the game well first and foremost the fact that you you know that we honoring him and that uh you know you guys are here and let’s be honest you guys are second to none um the way that you’re honoring him right now I mean it’s just words can’t even explain exactly uh it’s very very emotional and he’d be so obviously he want me to win right um and that was one of the things believe me he is smiling da upon us right now sorry well this is a beautiful thing that you’re doing here bringing all these people together uh especially such a a beautiful venue you know amongst the the uh in the this is the what’s the way to say you know this is where he lived right this is his his his place so so you know it’s for for you to put all this effort in and to uh to continue to do this year after year and bring all these people together like I said this is I’m sure he’d he’d be very proud of of uh everything that’s going on here today do you have something to say Dad I just wanted to ask um if you’re comfortable I mean if this might be viewed by some people in Italy and I’m wondering if you might have any words for them in Italian that if you’re up for it I know I you know before you answer that I I have to tell you while you’re while we’re looking at these pictures I can I can picture him on these courts he had such an iconic way of playing such an iconic release I can I can picture him on these courts that’s that’s the only thought I really but if if you feel up to it you know if you want to say a few words in Italian for anybody back in the old country New York Mato close Grand Fran for for [Applause] Cleveland for for beautiful thank you with that we will uh have a short uh song little video at yeah yeah yeah yeah and we’re can I comment on this kick off the finals sure you can you want to listen to it I’ve heard it I’ve heard it but yummy to Sumer yeah [Music] for foree [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] that’s where that video cuts off thank you I a backstory on that quick sure so my father uh as you can see he had quite the voice and uh he uh he had the voice but he he always told me you know there the school that he had to go to to try to learn the the lyrics and things like that but uh he had a voice he had a voice and uh one little fun fact about that we sat down I said dad you play the harmonica like no other play the harmonic he didn’t want too much attention that was always his uh he just wanted to kind of do his thing and that you know but no he was uh excellent at the har Monica and uh I was trying to get it in that little video there but um yeah he was he was pretty talented in that respect but yeah that was uh that was a video you know I thought was important to share and uh you know there as passions were uh botchy his garden his family I don’t know necessarily in that order but you know those uh and singing a little bit here and there those were his passions so again the credit The Thanks goes out to you folks right because without this without you guys this message this word this tournament wouldn’t be televised to so many people right now so I tried to highlight you you guys and um but you know what your work speaks for itself oh it’s not about us though your father lived a beautiful life he created a beautiful family and uh what we’ve done here today and for the last 8 years sure he’d be very proud of you so thank you Etso thank you for having us thank you uh thank you to your father and here we go let’s have a good finals let’s do it man all right hopefully we can have you guys here next year and the year after that and hopefully we won’t deal with as many elements as we had to deal I mean we literally had 80° weather literally for the last 2 3 weeks and then of course uh for the last you know few years here we’ve we’ve W into the uh incident here with uh with weather but we got through it and now it looks like uh clear as day this guys look good and we’re ready for this final so let’s go so we’re playing for 900 of the winner seconds 450 they get bragon rights they get medals we got a champagne baller we’re going to crack um and um yeah so let’s see what we get here hopefully we have good good entertaining finals for everyone at home nice clean hit sun has gone down just enough yeah that’s actually a really good view uh that we have here it looks like it’s I don’t know throughout the day haven’t been able to been back here much but you know with all the weather and stuff but uh looks like we got a pretty good setting here and looks like hopefully we’re joying at home watching it looks like uh SP Championship looks like Richie and Andy are sitting here potentially for a big frame to start the first frame they’re sitting one with two balls back there’s a little bit of a gap to go in for two or three and they they got two and they’re looking for three yep Doug and Rick are undefeated coming into this game so Andy and Rich will have to beat him twice and like you said that’s a good start 3 nothing yeah and you know sometimes that’s what you need to kind of get you going and uh get the momentum going and sometimes that can Propel into you know who knows but they got a a nice three lead with a good first point looks like Doug hymon rolls in and it’s a little long Doug was in a similar position a few years back um Paul Lewis and myself were in the finals we were fortunate enough to actually come back and beat him and Mike saraf u in a finals so he’s looking to redeem himself if you will and uh come out on top and win one of these uh potentially the first game or possibly two of two to to bring home the tile but they started off this frame a little a little long on these points so look like he rolled in for this one so and to be shooting here and see how it ends up two balls back for Andy and Rich o I had a couple of those happen this year yeah I saw it we saw a couple of them raise it up a little it just um for those at home um I’ve heard some commentary on oh boy almost hit that one in the air um Andy being one of them on the courts I just want to be the first to say to go on a record these courts are not the best all right they’re just they’re not having said that they’re far from the worst and uh the point that I’m getting at here is if you throw the ball there it’ll get there as you just saw Doug Hammond throw a a ball it got there you just have to throw it with a little more speed and one of the big things here is you know when you make a shot you get rewarded so if you hit it pretty clean it’s sticking around and uh you can’t say that about you know a lot of clubs U sometimes you make a hit and the ball comes back you know 10 feet or they’re just so fast that uh they don’t stick around but as you can see here Andy makes a good shot hits it and sticks it much to my point um of these courts rewarding you if you if you make the shot so um I I enjoy playing her I think if you throw the ball it goes goes to where you throw it um Richie threw a ball right he did throw a ball big ball little ball isn’t that what uh what they say get the big ball but no these these courts the game you know you figure out the speed and they they are enjoyable to to play on so look like Rick got that ball out clean yeah three balls down for dog and Rick that’s not the easiest easiest of points to beat so you know and he’s got to get it there and if he does looks like he might be shooting makes sense oh oh well he hitting got a little a break there he got a big break there Green’s sitting to right now yeah depending on where this ball ends up Richie might have a chance to hit it out for two two or three points first thing he’s got to beat the point which it looks like he did he didn’t [Music] do oh dark says it’s in yeah I think he rolling that poo and trying to roll for two maybe huh that’s what he’s asking how much does the Paulino need i’ say poo moves four or five inches to the to the right he could get two but like you said he can’t be short take that down too wow you missed everything sun is just about to Crest The Horizon in a few minutes see a little thin layer of fog over there on uh hole 10 on The Fairway beautiful setting here yeah we want to thank everybody for coming out truly meant a lot um I know the weather conditions weren’t the best throughout the day obviously Folks at home could see but uh you know we made made do with it and uh made the best of it and and everyone here knew what uh what we were here for and that’s what means a lot to me and knew that were on to my father and have fun and sometimes elements is part of it when you’re not when you don’t have a covered uh facility so but uh things have cleared up for to final here and that’s the most important so and he makes a nice hit brings poo down and I think green has the point here Doug strided that one out to see how many how much room he had was he measuring with his feet is that what he was doing we had uh 20 teams come out to the wrong color ball from uh throughout the States and Canada we appreciate our Canadian folks coming out um I had mentioned I wanted to uh in in my intro speech U chido is a uh is a big name in Canada and I actually uh forgot to mention them in my little intro but I definitely want to mention we are really grateful and it was a pleasure to see chido and and the other folks from Toronto come but chido hasn’t been out to the Circuit um for I believe four or five years yeah uh he mentioned um some of you folks May recognize the name some of you may not but uh POI right yes yes from uh Toronto he actually started playing with Mike also from toron I forget his last name but um he started playing with u Mike at the same time Natali and I myself uh started playing pretty much uh you know we were 15 when we started and so we were always similar in age and um you know so we we share some memories together and it was good to see him back out and come out to the tournament so he sched to play in a few others so we’re really yeah he’s playing in some of the bigger tournaments and uh it’s good to see him back out I know he’s dealing with uh loss of life unfortunately um and uh Sometimes the best thing to do is to kind of forget all that and get out just do what you love so and I can definitely share with him um in that regard of of losing loved ones as many many folks out there um but uh ours have been pretty recent and hits home pretty hard so uh I definitely share with him his his sadness and grief and I just hope uh he can get out and kind of you know have fun and be on the circuit and be amongst his other family members so that’s how I look at it yeah hope hope he’s able to find some Solace and yeah competing with old friends and he’s boty family right yeah it was definitely noticed when we had him out in the in the the bracket play I got reached out to and said who’s this this chito’s coming back huh I was like yeah he’s he’s he’s he’s coming back so it was good to see him he’s got one of the smoothest deliveries in the game and he’s truly a yeah he was fun to watch yeah many the newer bucks probably don’t know him but he’s one of the one of the best Rick Mas makes a great hit got to hit that ball and clear it out Rick’s got a nice little form shoots delivers makes the hit yeah fortunate break that uh Paulino mov too and his ball followed it cuz that first point was not very competitive that comes down to who can outd the other here in the backboard so we’ll see what happens tug throws a foot and a half to footer which I think should be able to be that’s a great ball in that spot on the court these balls they do come out couple feet from the backboard there so it’s it’s easy to uh seems like an easy point to beat just hit the backboard on the left but the ball will come out you got to be able to control your speed quite a bit got to have enough speed to get it to where you want to go to cuz the court can take it sometimes the courts are going to be a little more true now that they’ve dried up um yeah I didn’t like that shot that call I think you got to go to it from the either middle or left CU you don’t really know what’s going to happen on that sideboard the boards don’t come out much right yeah I mean depending on where you hit where it breaks I just I don’t know if I trusted the sideboard this juncture of the game I think you had enough room there to go between or even uh to the left of poo and he’s a lefty so they actually both lefties so I might have taken a different angle at that but see what they opt to do well using the sideboard is a way to control your speed right like I said it’s tough to if you’re going to come in on the left you got to have just the right speed where it’s going to stick around where you’re going to get it there but it’s going to stick around like Andy had good speed to stick around you can’t see cuz he’s in front of the ball but his ball took a left on him because he didn’t have enough speed to maintain the line that’s the key you said it perfectly you you know if you go to the left you got to make sure you got enough speed and to get it there and hopefully it doesn’t hit too hard to come back and you don’t you know it doesn’t come off three four feet but oh that that’s where other shots come into play too right like The Loft being able to Loft it out down the court yeah yeah spin shots yep yep the uh the spin shots the lofting and kind of trying to you know how do I explain it just get enough Loft and uh into the shot where you know there’s not as much speed but you’re you’re deadening the ball is that even a word I don’t think that’s a word but that makes sense um you’re deadening the ball if you will and hoping that it doesn’t come back and you stick around for the point Doug seems to be locked in um he’s pointing really well I think he’s been here and wants to avenge that uh situation where I I mentioned earlier so let’s see if he can Prevail um he sh a great point we got Andy shooting and he hits opens it up but it’s still red so rich is going to most likely beat this point all depends on where it you know where he puts it and and see how much room is left let’s see I would say that’s a pretty beatable Point what would you say Mike I would agree with you ATO especially these guys that play many games on this court by this point if at this point I would think um Doug and Rick need to really kind of hone in and focus in on these shots because I I don’t know if that to say obviously they can win game two but they want to take advantage of the position and and try to get these guys out of here while while they can the first game and not have it go to the second game yeah it’s tough coming into the finals undefeated losing the first game kind of puts you in a bit of a funky position and that’s big momentum yeah for the team that comes out a loser this is way short short yeah yeah this is way short once it hits that side rail there um I I I really do have to mention and a big shot out goes out to these Holly uh folks here that play in league and this is literally like their second week of play um so they they they really put in a lot of time work and energy into getting these courts ready to go um lot of weeds scoreboards they upgraded those they actually did those this morning which was like unbelievable um just all their work and you know doing the best they can with the facility they have absolutely what they’re willing to and and courts like these are so much more work than a quote you know quote unquote a nice court right well yeah those courts are easy yeah these are the courts that are tough that they these courts take a lot of work to get him to this point and uh yeah the Hol guys are always always great to see them uh glad to have the opportunity to come out here especially to uh showcase this facility this venue to some folks around the country who haven’t who aren’t familiar with it nice shot there by Rick Mullen could be six to3 and let’s hear a word from our sponsors this [Music] weekend for over 60 years family-owned skips on the ridge has delivered the personal one-on-one Service Rochester families have grown to love skips uses only the freshest choicest cuts of meat and poultry and don’t forget skips homemade sausage always fresh always delicious and there’s never an extra charge for a custom cut you can’t afford to skip skips on the ridge uh promo there of skip side the ridge was one of my dad’s favorites actually the skips on a ridge those that are uh local um I’m sure folks here in Holly have heard of Skips oner Ridge uh if you need your you know your fresh meats they have uh endless array of of options there it’s so fresh we get all our steaks there Dem monical uh they have seafood anything uh you’re looking for they are freshest of the fresh freshest of the fresh can we go with that freshest of no it’s they cut it to your order

in particular that sponsored Us is from um on Ridge skips on the ridge nearby to us and uh we thank them for sponsoring and uh look forward to working with them in the future we appreciate them and hopefully uh anyone in need of any Meats sandwiches uh they have it all there feel free to check them out the mosquitoes are swarming yeah I noticed a few got so quiet and the weather and oh my God it’s just setting is just so beautiful and this is actually what you know folks got to see that craziness I’m sure earlier with the weather but this is truly I mean we’ve have come out here and played in their leagues occasionally and to be here in this setting and it’s just beautiful and the cameras don’t do it just it but just this but the sun this view is actually pretty good the sunset over there over the The Horizon to the right of your screen and the birds chirping the smell of the uh the rain in the yeah I’m sure you guys have set this up but I mean we’re literally in the middle of a Golf Resort golf uh 18 hole and at the end of the 18 hole here um they they put together these Four Courts with the bar pretty much attached here close nearby with a restaurant and these guys play league here every Tuesday and um you know it it it’s it’s great to see the sport you know grow in any you know wherever it is it’s good to see the the sport being played and and these guys here in Holly actually have a lot of uh passion and um support and people that play and it’s good to see that I believe they have uh I guess like 16 teams or something that play here in the league on Tuesdays and and Jake and Randy Bower are the face of uh of Holly botchy and uh many of the people on the circuit have now gotten to uh meet and these guys and it’s it’s it’s truly it’s a pleasure and again the more people that we have in the circuit the better it is and and these guys are willing to play and participate and and they’re good botch players even better people and that’s what we want and they are well represented they travel while yeah a lot of the tournaments we go to in New York you can expect to see at least one or two Holly teams and when I was introduced to this facility as a Potential Prospect to have the tournament I mean I knew these guys and um they’re just the easiest and best to work with um Jake helps out with a lot of the things uh the jolio and getting things set up and Randy his father sets up um and his attitude and his spirit and I just can’t say enough about him like he’s just so positive and his energy is just it’s might be able to it’s truly great to see and I’m it’s a pleasure to have these guys near us here and Jake and um trying to see if we can get some more electrical connections here so we can plug the lights in it actually looks brighter on the screen than it does in person the lights are starting to get low and we are hogging all the outlets Etso yeah service though has been pretty good now throughout we haven’t had many hiccups yeah no we’ve been going strong one point sitting there for Andy and Rich two balls back going to be uh Andy Sweeny not a whole lot of room got to come off the wall somehow like we said earlier though the balls don’t really come off the wall very much they’re sitting one it’s going to be hard to make two I don’t know they’d have to just roll in off the side maybe and try to or straight and I think I don’t know if you want to shoot here though I don’t know why you would well they got two balls in the back okay but I don’t know maybe they’re trying to hit Pino down no they’re going to roll well still got one actually the way he’s set up now if he hits if he makes that same shot right he’s going to push Paulino back to the the green he might might be sitting three yeah I think you throw a medium speed here and hopefully the no it’s going to be one one grein 7 to six you could plug into that right unless I I didn’t well you can plug into the orange can’t you that Don’t Unplug that can’t are they all covered nothing doing there for Mr Sweeny third ball on the way um what are we looking at here iio got to somehow get a ball to if you put a ball on the board here even if you beat the point it’s not going to do you very good right yeah I mean I think you got to play in a red ball here I’ll be honest and got of play to the left of it looks like he’s shooting not sure what we’re shooting here but maybe he’s shooting oh maybe that maybe they got second point and that’s what he’s well they definitely have second and third all right so I don’t disagree with that but he kind of missed his Target and uh he’s setting up Doug and Rick here which you would think if he puts a decent point to have a decent frame yeah that did make things a little interesting though moving Paulo yeah this ball mean this ball can dictate the frame right here so if he yeah that’s if I’m a betting man and I’m betting here I would say that red would make uh one or two points here but let’s see what happens here yeah Rich can’t certainly can’t shoot forc the roll ball is going to be about what do you think four I think they definitely have room to take advantage Doug Doug’s kicking the wall over there he’s saying the walls in so yeah Rick’s got Rick’s got a good six feet at least long as he gets it out there he left a little short now I think you gotta leave that ball alone just trying to make two and I think he did just that thre it out’s looking to uh keep the title back in the in the Lockport area they won it last year who won it last year um Mike’s uh son-in-law oh well will G Rich will and Brian won right and Brian there will G and Brian Wilcox they didn’t defend the title though so yeah I mean I don’t know what happened there but uh but no they they are looking to keep the title back in Lockport here if Doug and Rick win so Doug and Rick as we said earlier Doug and Rick are undefeated they only have to win once Andy and Rich have to beat them twice to win this is the first game of the series was looking peachy but it had some wind to it uh see R Richie is going to go in here and try to beat that second ball and he does so Rick’s going to have to make a hit here see if he can connect if he hits this ball they’re they’re sitting pretty here with this Frame so see what happens it’s been pretty steady throughout and he goes through now the pressure goes back on Rick and Doug for Doug to make a point I think you can’t be long I think I’m sorry you got to have some some heat to and hopefully hit something and he’s short you can’t be short there um yeah so that that if he hits the ball they’re sitting pretty Archy for them they missed and that’s the turning point of the frame so Rick comes in and this one it’s in play I don’t think they’re in but at this point it will be a challenge I would say at the very least to make two or three but let’s see what happens with and’s point he rolls and it looks like it’s it might be it might be too richest calling for the same thing so that tells me it’s two I think we got three balls three points well that makes it a 10 to eight game Richie and Andy R uh Richie likes to go deep a little bit of a three quarter point and he’s off this is an off point this should be beatable pretty easily by here by Doug which he doesn’t hesitate and throws right in and he indeed beats that and makes a good point well he leaves actually probably a good four feet so it’s definitely beatable just got to get it out there and and it’ll get there the courts are true the courts are true very true what do you did you guys you stand by that did you guys not think that well you guys also I you find one person here to agree with you on that I will argue that I would I would argue that okay only because when you throw the ball yes yes there’s definitely stones and you know it can alter it but I think if you throw a ball it’ll get there and that goes for occasionally when you shoot yeah it might catch because there’s obviously they have a bunch of stones and stuff but I think if you get the ball it’ll get there in terms of pointing and shooting when you shoot and you hit you get rewarded no are you saying more so with depending on upon where the ball hits it could it could alter one way or the other let’s make an let’s make an argument both ways I’m I’m I’m making an argument where I I I don’t mind as much but what what what do you what’s your take I think they’re tricky I think you can figure them out I think they certainly can be figured out uh but I think they’re tricky yeah they’re definitely are not the truest they’re not you know you’re not playing un synthetic um to my argument though I mean I’ve played other facilities and one place will be faster than the other sure and one place has theend no’s perfect yeah and and you know I think it’s just the players adapt right you know for the most part um the best players will travel around and win everywhere yeah yeah look at that ball he threw it out right got there got to make the plays got to make the shots I mean is that comparing it to some of the PGA events some of them are harder than others got to adjust that’s the name of this game you got to adjust and he looks to take this ball out and he does with that patented hook of his that he he reached out and it kind of hooked in and got it out so that takes it to 118 trying to force a game number two and they are five points away this would be a pivot pivotal frame I think if andian Rich win this Frame I think it may determine the outcome sure it’s a great start rich is zala puts ball right behind Paulino Rick Molen from Lockport New York Bills fan we love Bill’s Mafia here o it’ss it uh enough to make the room there’s a big mosquito a couple of them oh yeah I think he just kind of hit that ball out right mosquitoes are pretty large my gosh we missed everything can’t miss that curious to see Richie taking that shot huh yeah I think he thought it was an easy enough hit to just kind of take it out but you got to you got to hit that so now that leaves about 2 and 1/2 ft make the point which Doug should beat and I think he did maybe he didn’t he actually was short but he did leave it um in play so there’s a potential to make at least one maybe two if he hits it flush but definitely that red ball is in play and it looks like he did just that he threw it with enough speed maybe to make he did make one pretty confident yeah it’s a good spot for it to right near the green ball dog and Rick are out of balls last ball of the frame is going to belong to Mr Andy Sweeney and he does not have an easy decision to make here and he can’t go side really he’s got to go in at kind of a straight straight shot so it’s not the easiest points to beat but obviously if he throws it out he could definitely make it but it’s going throw it out you got throw this if you throw it right this one go there and that Richie’s calling for Andy to shoot that front ball possibly clear out both the Reds I think that’s a pretty low percentage shot there what do you think that’s you I mean he’s really got to make he’s got to make this shot in which he hits it so flush that hit I like just shooting him for point to be honest and playing you shoot him for point you could take out your own ball too right could easily take that green out you mean roll in for point is that over here oh I thought you were saying shooting the red no rolling in for Point yeah just trying to kind of sneak in there I don’t think this line is super hard to find uh I don’t know if I trust a sideboard here though I don’t know if I certainly not I think if you just roll he’s shooting something if you roll fairly straight at it down the right side it’ll kind of hook towards the sideboard yeah he took the shot the Richie suggested yeah I don’t think he hit it hard enough though I don’t know maybe they do have one yeah they do have one well that was kind of a crapshoot hit there you didn’t know what was going to happen bit of a risk I may have just elected the point and try to beat it but they took a bit of a Gamble and they rewarded with one point so that brings it to 118 Richie 128 and Richie throws a short point or a he is a little short but yeah he elected to go short with his throw and now Doug’s looking to beat that and should beat it there’s enough room there to to beat it and he does so rich has enough room to to sneak in there and beat that is also I don’t know if he’s got enough I don’t think he did enough to to make it no I think Andy’s got to play on the green ball because I think there’s too much room there to to shoot and I like making two here I like rolling on the green and making potential two I think that’s a real tough shot on these courts if you’re going to I think it’s only going to move go for that you got to be able to yeah that’s short too might be short yeah three balls back for Doug and Rick Doug and Rick yeah they’re right back if they can get a couple points hit right back in it what do you do here do you shoot those two you just try to roll in only put one deep I think you got roll in this fall and see what happens yeah I think he got plenty of room no use of opening it up too much Doug rolls depends where this first ball ends up too it’s going to be a good ball he threw a ball but I don’t know oh good line looks like it didn’t make it no yeah a little long stay away from those greens at this point make sure you don’t nudge them and he turn up did he’s got a for sure two it’s going to put him right back in the game barring any craziness it looks like he did just that so that’s a big three frame 1112 andian richer in the lead got a ball game Doug and Rick though now only five points away from finishing off this tournament Doug and rig uh Doug and Rick if they win they’re the winners of the eighth annual Memorial ug Roy doubles turnning here in Holly New York and um if they lose they get a rematch in the in the second uh championship game so it comes down to these next few frames 1112 we got a barn burner here in Holly New York way it should be a great day today of botch amongst friends and family let’s see what happens sort of a big Miss there they’re debating what to do I don’t know what you do here to be honest um can try to sneak one in I think you kind of have to cover up at this point unless you feel comfortable hitting more of a bot Pino here which is present I believe if uh takes a little bit of an angle but bringing that Pino down is not the easiest thing so looks like they’re going to opt to the safest route safer route which would be to point Richie does us that he’s got the left hand Little Hook but it’s long he’s going to want to keep it close here because if not this uh potentially could be a big frame here so who’s this guy sitting over on the right board for bouncing a ball off his arm with the blue shirt yeah I have no clue I don’t know why he’s positioned there but he knows somebody there but I think everybody’s just too nice to tell him well yeah you would think those guys would be saying something by now but I don’t know Rick is looking to hit Green’s in and he hits flush Rick looks like he”s been playing good all day I mean they’re in the finals undefeated so he’s connecting flush it’s a great hit sticks around again don’t you guys like to get rewarded when you make good shots and stick around are you saying everything will stick cuz of quarts are so slow is that you’re saying pretty much yeah but I I enjoy it definitely could be better but I I do uh I do enjoy the the courts here hey you’re not going to hear me complaining about the courts yeah I only objected to your statement that the courts are true I will argue they for the most part they’re truly unique I’ll give you that two balls back here for dog and wreck uh not really sure I imagine the discussion is because they have a point if that green ball is in I think that’s pretty easy decision to shoot he could potentially clear out both greens give yourself a four-point frame douy throws a ball Doug oh he didn’t catch a flush enough but I don’t know if he’s oh they got oh they’re they’re out so they’re they’re sent potential too if he hits that oh no he’s going to opt to who has a point red Rick doesn’t want toe it yeah R Yes red has a point one red 1212 so you guys are too humble and modest to say this and obviously you you know but I want to make it uh just a little statement here and say um obviously everyone loves what you do you guys are second to none and you know I try to make an effort um to the people here that attended to uh help support you guys in any little way that they could and I just think for those watching you guys know what these guys do right they come here they set up their equipment they do all these things that we just are not capable of doing or don’t want to do and um you know what they’re doing you just can’t say enough I mean they’re they’re elevating the game you guys see these reels they put out getting 250,000 K views they know what they’re doing um more than that just going to be short and sweet and just say you know what these guys go out try to help support them be upfront with the folks that are attending that are participating in these events and make it worthwhile for these guys okay that’s all the end of the day you know we we we want to we want to enjoy what we do you know you guys obviously enjoy doing this but it’s got to mean it’s got to be worthwhile right so that’s all I’m going to say those are my those are my two words I mentioned it earlier today and I just want to make uh people aware of that because I can’t take what you guys are doing for granted because you know what if you guys don’t do what you’re doing we you guys won’t be able to sit in your comfortable chairs and on your couches and be able to watch this you know sport that we love and you know what I’m very confident in you folks and and I truly believe that’s it’s only a matter of time and that’s all I have to say about that but everyone step up you guys go out and get your macchiato and your coffees and you know whatever it is but when these guys come around to your tournaments you know few bucks out of your pocket means a lot right and these guys are too nice and humble to to say it but um I’m I’m I’m you know thankful and honored that some of these guys understood that when I made it uh a point today and um you want to make it worthwh for these guys and hopefully want to come back and and uh you know it’s just it’s truly appreciated and these guys are are at the best of what they do so that Court just ate up both the Andy shots there H second one was a little more predictable than the first first one looked like a hit and just spun off to the right on him so dog and Rick got two points sitting there and a chance to win the game if I’m not mistaken yeah Ricks that’s three they’re going for four this is for the title here Etso the medals the 900 oh he left the short uh was a $900 shot right there they’re on game point though 152 like I said earlier Doug and Rick only have to win once Andy and Rich have to win twice wow we going have another short Paulino 1512 and uh to put the pressure on here is dog Hammond that’s traveling north yeah not the best ball but yeah Rich is zala this game was 12 to8 I believe maybe 12 to 7 12 to8 something like that in favor of Andy and Rich and since then dog and Rick have just dug their heels in and I think no pun intended I think Rick’s looking to bail out Doug hair in that first point and trying to to uh maybe open that up a bit maybe bring palino down and open this up well and he did just that I think he made it red point but I could be wrong but looks like he hit it enough to make it red yeah maybe not is St going yeah looks like it’s still green but there’s a lot of room you got about a good four feet and Doug is trying to plant his and doesn’t hit his but he’s still in so there’s about 34s of a of a pathway there where I don’t think it can pass through three4 of a pathway I like the way you put that special thanks again to everyone that came out and uh participated from near and far those that came across the border from Canada our good friends Pat pezan if they got the point put a little pressure on Andy to make a shot he said he’s got one right Andy’s going to try and shoot both balls for the game I love it Etso Andy says Andy as Rich here he said should I go for the game or not rich said sure go ahead shoot both balls so Andy on his first shot is going to be shooting risk reward do we see it here though the left I see the risk the left side of that front ball for the game why not asking a lot at least take one see what happens with the first he might get him both on the first there goes one oh yeah he did have two balls I see where they going with that yeah yeah yeah he had to kind of stick around I think now you got to shoot it again that’s game point that’s it’s in a good spot where it’s it’s a tough point to beat he doesn’t want to shoot I think you got to shoot for three you got to shoot for three at this point that’s game points sit there can’t play Scare at this point you just got to go you’re shooting for three I mean you your mind I think are they sitting one had to be made up Reds in that’s game point I I think your mind had to be made up on the last shot whatever happened you were going to what do we got here what do we got this is it this is a big ball Red’s in you said green by an inch and a half sounds Red’s not in I don’t know it looks red on our screen right that’s short that’s short is that k no that that ball’s in it might be too green oh my God that was a very confusing frame two green 154 I didn’t understand what was going on there uh I don’t know if that’s a great ball but it’s a decent Ball but I definitely think it’s beatable Doug seems pretty honed in I think get it out there and have it roll in and uh looks like he did just that and he’s got to make a hit he does not have a window got remove it that’s number Michael he does not have a window he’s got small tget he’s got to hit this straight on it’s game point see he was banking on his hook which normally hooks in but kind of bit and didn’t it actually didn’t bite it just kind of went straight he’s going to shoot again he hits it now Doug just got to beat this point and they are looking pretty pretty good let’s see what happens yeah Green’s down three balls the second ball coming for the red team this is when you just got to have confidence in your pointers to make a point I mean and this could puts this point in this could very well be the point that wins the tournament douy threw it should curve back towards Pao some point douy threw a ball he’s tasted the defeat he said you know what I’m going to do all I can to uh a ball indeed come on here with a W with a dub Richie’s trying to save face frame this is for the tournament Etso this is it man he beat it looks like he did just that beat it wow it’s going to come down to the last ball yeah well two balls back for Rick you know what Rick mullen’s got two shots at the title here you want to take that cash and that metal you got to hit this shot yes he’s got two balls to do it and he missed so he’s got to hit it with this ball here if he hits it they win if he doesn’t for the title ATO I’m too color blind to see how the balls are laying on the back it looks like there’s two green on the left and one red on the right so uh we got two two green yeah and then the red is second and there’s a red on the side ball see if he hits it for the title it got it bang 2024 8th Annual UGA kosi doubles memorial tournament champions
