Good cause I would like to see Earl win this one. Nothing against Johhny other then he gets up and down and up and down over a shot then takes a walk around and does it again. And there cant be that much lint or everyone else would be pickin it off also

John schmidt won the one pocket at the Derby last time. He is also great in 14.1. Alex would win in 9 ball. I voted for Schmidt

I dont drink or smoke so that would be fine with me. I can tolerate drinkers more than smokers. The smoke really bothers my eyes anymoe and I can smell it on my clothes when I get home. I say Good luck!

Sad to say but pool really seems to be in trouble sponsor wise. As JohhnyT said, sponsors-added monies are really hurting the tournaments. look at how the Challenge of champions tournament was reduced this year to what, 4 players? We'll be lucky if that tournament is even held next year.

She's my favorite woman player. Wonder if she will be the one who passes Allison Fishers total number of wins.

I voted for Schmidt because of all of them he posts here the most and I seem to know him better. Besides I also think he's the best of the group. It will be interesting to see if Hatch does stay around and contributes here. I would like to hear some of his storys.

I saw this thread and it reminded me you were writing a book. I was going to start a new thread asking you when it will be finished. Instead I'll ask that question here. When will the book be done? Lots of us can hardly wait! You may end up with a movie if the book is half of what we think...

I also think that Bill Incardona is a great commentater. He knows so much about pool, especially when compared to the espn people. Easy to listen to and understand whats going on. I also liked Varner or Buddy Hall paired with him. Grady also of course.

Can you tell us how long you've been playing? How did you get hooked on pool? Also you played super at the Open. How did YOU feel about how you played? Did you sense something special in your game last week? Thank you.

I have heard that about him from different people who don't even know each other. The arrogant part, not the PR*CK part. He's supposed to be really full of himself. I don't know him but I seen tapes and my opinion is that he thinks he's mister cool. I just cant seem to root for him either...

No but thats a good story!

Thanks! Sean, Cuetechasaurus, rackmsuckr and everyone else who helped explain this, thank you! I had never heard of chicken wing and just took it as a sidearm delivery. Now I understand the difference and I sincerely thank all of you for helping me out!

That's exactly how I see it also. I admit I forgot about SVB on the barbox. You're right there also.

I'm so confused. If elbow out is sidearm and a chicken wing is the opposite, then a chicken wing must be straight back? Don't most players play with the elbow straight back? Is everybody a chicken wing or sidearm? Not trying to be a smarta$$, I am truely confused and would like to learn. I...

Who said anything about checkers? You read funny. Parica also won a DCC banks championship, so obviously he's the better all around player.
