FC vs. BC

Posted on August 31, 2004 at 10:01:19 PM by Tony and the Crew

Hi everybody,

In my humble opinion, the FC players do better in singles games than the BC players. The main reason is that the FC players' job is to KILL the point and the BC players' mission is to defend the point. So when they play against each other in singles, USUALLY, USUALLY, the FC player possesses a court advantage.

Emphy, Atain was one of the finest singles players I have ever seen. He had it all...people don't know this, but Atain played FC for years at the amateur level...that could be the reason why he was versatile on the court and utilized an arsenal of accurate shots. Unfortunately, his career was cut short by a devastating knee injury...too bad!

BTW, Emphy, be ready...I have some forthcoming info from Canal Vasco re: Jai Alai partidos on VHS and DVD...not 1, not 5, not 50, but over 500 partidos for sale!! I'll keep you posted. For an appetizer, here is one example: Txikito de Bolivar and Arkarazo vs. Inclan and Aramburu.

Take care,
Tony and the Crew
