    I was convinced years ago that Kane’s rapid rise in the sport and matches like this led to what many of us considered to be Jack’s premature retirement from the game of racquetball. I think he realized that constantly playing for second place was ludicrous. At the end of some rallies where Jack shakes his head is not from frustration for missing a shot. I think it was in wonderment of “How do we beat this guy?”

    Jack Huzsek never fully got the credit he deserved as one of the best prime time players. He played in the toughest era of racquetball, could always hang with anyone, and prob could have been the best. Also I think Jack's swing mechanics are easier to learn for newbies than Kane's (Not necessarily better just easier). Kane was super human so can't blame anyone for not being at his level.

  • @wolfmanracquetball

    I agree, I remember watching these matches back in the day and felt for Jack. He was a force to be reconned with! If I was able to interview him, I would ask if he was frustrated with Kane taking over and winning all the time. Kane took over the scene with very good reason.

I am in a rball group with a guy who streams rball via facebook and I always enjoy watching his streams 'cause it's someone I know and it's always cool to watch people you know playing racquetball even if it's a lower level than me. I'd say I'm about equal to your level maybe a tad bit higher but I still enjoy watching your videos. I have to control myself otherwise I can spend all day watching videos on youtube. I don't know if my opinion is the best to use as a random sampling of what people like. I don't try and spend all day watching sports (football, basketball, baseball, rball, etc).
