9-BALL: Jim REMPE vs Rodney MORRIS - 1995 21st SANDS REGENCY 9-BALL OPEN

[@rodneymorris9320]

King James is one of my favorite all time! He taught me how to use the cue ball like a clock. Definitely one of the greatest ever. Respect all day! 🤙🏾

[@gman5051]

I wish I was there to watch you two competing in the day Rodney ..

[@kaivonweymarn3376]

Dream pool!

[@mongopusher4life]

What do u mean by that? Like a clock?

[@gman5051]

@@mongopusher4life the clock is imaginary on the face of the cue ball , 1 o’clock…2 o’clock… etc……for English

Awesome appreciate all the games you post it will be fun to watch a young Rodney

[@kerrmoney]

I got league tonight so I’ll miss the premiere.....excited to catch it later tho! Thanks Pat, you da man!!!

[@williamhall7349]

Remember Rempe back in 1972 when he beat Luther Lassiter at Jack and Jill's playing straight pool thanks for posting this I really enjoy the old players

[@veronicahawthorne3452]

Two champions doing what they do best. What a treat!

[@davidgerber9317]

What a pleasure to watch a couple of guys who don't take 40 seconds plus on every shot. Not that playing at a quick tempo works for every player, but DAMN it is sure a lot more fun to watch. And the quality does not suffer here. I'll bet the TPA for both of these guys was above .900 for most of the match.. One of the most enjoyable matches I've seen in a while!

[@Woodworking-Pastor]

The problem is that they make the game look so easy that most people don’t equate it to a sport nor do they consider the skill necessary to play at that level.

[@speeddemon6667]

My boy the “Rocket” I’ve learned a lot from ‘em. I still watch him play and I’m still shooting pool

[@xtbum3339]

Rodney's inadequate safety play cost him the match.

[@CAL7A]

Jim Rempe was one of the greatest of all time.

[@mikelessard7492]

Hes still alive today so not "was" lol

[@gino2033]

I would love to see the match with him(King James)vs Efren Reyes where Efren hit the 5 rail shot that's still argued it fouled but if it did why didn't anyone react? The reason they didn't was because it didn't foul it was old video and in the old video equipment some time it glitched on compression of moving target's filmed.

@@AccuStats Pat I hope this KZbin thing works out. Curious to know about the compensation you get from views, subscribers, ads etc. These videos now has a ton of ads every 5mins or less it's quite annoying. Might have to upgrade my account to premium/ KZbinRed once again lol

... 😲 ... 100 % TRUTH ... I HIT THE LIKE WHEN I WAS 1 SECOND INTO THE VIDEO ( REMPE VS MORRIS 1995 ) ENOUGH SAID ... AND I AM WRITING THIS COMMENT AS I PAUSE THE VIDEO 1 MINUTE 45 SECONDS IN ... THANK YOU SINCERELY IN ADVANCE !!!! 😉 ... I AM GOING TO ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS MATCH !!!! 🤑

[@bonhzeppelin55]

Not to gloss over the great match, but when I saw the audience clip with Jeanette Lee & Helena Thornfeldt my heart sunk. Helena was such a nice, friendly, gentle soul. I'm happy she had success on the wpba tour & winning a US Open 9 Ball Crown. God Bless you Helena!

[@jlobiafra]

Unfortunately now jeanette is having some serious health issues 😢

[@FloridaRaider]

wish the pros would play more on Brunswick tables. Players can really let their stroke out and the game looks more elegant.

[@shayne.7770]

Diamond has cornered the market. I personally like a tighter pocket but Brunswicks are definitely fantastic tables

[@scottbranson7872]

Jesus mid-90's Rodney Morris, save some _____ for the rest of us

[@gino2033]

What happened at 14:31 we missed the run out from the 5to the 7,8 & 9?

[@AccuStats]

I saw no problems.

[@robertmeadows1657]

Tape cut from him looking at the five, to him breaking.

[@AccuStats]

Still, I don't see that.

[@robertmeadows1657]

Oh, his time stamp was wrong. Happens at 1:30:58.

[@AccuStats]

Yea, at that time, we used video tape and had to be changed.

[@veronicahawthorne3452]

What happened at 1:30:00? They skipped to the next game. 😢

Great match!

[@chrisnichols1912]

Who would give this matchup a thumbs down?

[@MikeyD22]

Possibly some older female viewers who are jealous of Rempe's hair-do.

[@davidnorman6887]

Unreal level of play. The Top 10 from that era are nearly all Hall of Famers.

[@theburningelement.6447]

Both world class players

is that Tang in the crowd front and center?

Same tournament.

@30:39 the guy in the crowd clapping for another table while Jim is shooting. How ignorant.

[@Fleur_de_lis2k]

The ultimate player's game, pimp vs hustler

[@nimajnebrm]

What is Jim Rempe up to nowadays? Never hear much about him anymore.

[@AccuStats]

Retired, and enjoying life.

[@raskolnjikov1]

Rodney had a great stroke in the early days. As soon as it "devolved" into that which he still has nowadays: a jabby, short, push stroke, he could never reach the top players.

[@AccuStats]

Are you the only one that noticed? I agree.

[@justachristian4072]

Yeah I was thinking the same thing!

[@AIZEN1401]

King James 💪🏼👑

[@jandeband]

👍

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

The commentators yammered on endlessly about everything but the match in front of them. Weird. Five balls into a game, "Did Morris not make a ball on the break?" Come on.

[@gino2033]

What a great match. King James vs The Rocket in the Reno Sands the Vegas Sands got hit identical to the Twin Trade Center Towers 911.

[@jessejames4987]

Brazil love pool

[@robertharris2018]

Putting a time limit shot clock on games ruined Rempe. He's a great player but takes too much time surveying.

[@magovenor]

Anyone noticed after the break of the third game, the lady sitting next to the black guy on her right took her purse and stuffed it next to the white guy, well okay!

[@2869may]

1:18:30..... That guy might be coked up.....lol

2 guys here just mumbling away on and on i can hardly keep up . Come on show some energy and rais your voice this stinks

[@2869may]

At this level and the tables are close enough to break a players stride and momentum by have to stop mid-run and wait for the player on the next table..... That's Not Pro Level Sh!t.....!

[@AccuStats]

That was 27 years ago. There was no arena then.

@@AccuStats It's unfortunate they couldn't space he tables a little better...

Scott Smith is the most boring commentator in the game .

Worst commentary ever. Because mostly I couldn’t make out what was being said. Only every once in awhile could I know the score. ??????

I see what you meant. We'll work on that one. Thanks.
