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
