On the intentional forfeit. I would never do it. If you had to though, if the player isn't in the building to be called there isn't a sportsmanship issue. I'd have the player leave early. :cool:

The team captain is responsible to manage a teams handicap, manage the matchups and win matches. Throwing a 3 on a 5/6/7 isn't when you have a5/6/7 isn't manipulation. You might do it for a number of reasons. To neutralize a strong opponent giving your less skilled 5/6/7 a greater chance to win...

Delaware was $5500 for 8 ball and $4400 for 9 ball this year. We qualified 4 teams in 8 and 3 in 9. State tournament also paid out so if my 8 ball team had qualified we would have gotten an extra $1500 - $2500 depending on where we placed. We came up 1 round short in both 8 and 9 and got paid...

"Hit it like you mean it" Much better advice than "Be the ball" :cool:

Haven't seen Jack Reacher yet. I will check it out when it hits my cable network I say the Tropic Thunder roll was his best because he absolutely nailed it and it was so far away from every other part he ever played. He's had a long career with lots of great rolls. He was really good in the...

Tom Cruise's best roll/performance ever..... :cool:

A heavy dose of antipsychotic drugs and hours of intense therapy.... :cool:

According to Wikipedia, it is common in Italy and the Mediteranian I searched hand gestures and found this under horned hand. It goes on to describe it's introduction to rock and roll from the Satanic band Coven in 69, and John Lennon apparently displays it on the cover of Sgt Pepper though I...

A common injury to young soccer (football to Lennon) players who toe the ball instead of kicking it with a flat part of the foot... as opposed to the gunk that collected betwwen the toes on dirty feet.... :cool:

Hawiians use the thumb and pinky. The index pinky symbol Neil is upset about originated in Spain as a warding off gesture to someone who is perceived as evil, marking them with the devils horns... Not much different in nature than the Amish Hex symbols seem on barns all over Amish country...

Looks like one of the Cornerstone cues Bill had made with D series parts. Looks like a D16 forearm. Doesn't look CNC but hard to tell with the posted pic. Points look sharp. The I shaft came off of something else as it has the ring in the collar. Great buy @ $175 :cool:

Built a garage in my back yard specifically for a pool table. Moved to a new house with room in the house for the table less than 2 yrs after building the garage... :cool:

$250 for a McD refinish with a new shaft. I did it with a D16 and they refurbed the original shaft as well. Looked great plays great. Worth the money. I would at least send them in under the maintenace program. You get a lot for a small price. :cool:

What improvements have been made? :cool:

I have never posted the contents of a PM ever. I just don't understand the mentality that you can tell a secret and expect it to be kept without swearing the person to secrecy first. Most PM's I receive are as others said comments that are off topic to a thread or responses to reputation...

Why should you, the recipient keep that covenant without prior consent? Because you intend something to be private, it automatically binds the recipient to keep it so? :cool:

How can you expect someone to keep something private without their prior consent? Would you tell a random stranger on the street a secret and expect it to be kept? :cool:

I have no control over whether someone sends me a PM or not. I log on and it is there. As it is unsolicited I am under no obligation to keep it's contents private. It is like telling someone not to take offense when you are about to say something to them you think they may not like. I cannot...

I try to tell the players on my team who have to sit as early as possible, usually by the third match. I have a couple older guys on my team that are better played early. One of them usually stays to the end, the other (battling cancer) leaves whenever he feels like he is ready to go. I have a...

Top Gun point accumulated per win are the handicap of your opponent. Beat a 4 you get 4 top gun points. It doesn't matter if you beat them on the hill or shut them out the top gun points remain the same. How the match was played (# of innings, safetys etc) determines handicap, so yes you can...
