Ronnie O'Sullivan does a jump shot - in a snooker match.

Okay the story 😉
I think it was Snoqualmie 9 ball with top competition. I will not name the offender. I will just use the initials, J D. Ooops that's what he went by. Shrug.
So anyways the event allowed the new fangled magic racks of a plastic sheet template with precision holes for a perfect rack every time.
So JD's opponent was crushing the break. At an intermission (toilet break) J D took the scoring pencil and modified his opponents personal magic rack template. In front of a bleachers full gallery. 🤷‍♂️
He got the Never Again from BCAPL. (I think) 😉

Well that's a little long windedfor my attention span. 😉
My recollection of BCAPL rules was anything deemed unsportsmanlike fell to the judgment of the referee. The referee could award game or set or even expulsion from event. Some even got never again in a BCAPL event.
Perhaps my memory is getting fuzzy. 😉

I don't know who you talked to but the $150 is not to resurface it. It is a trade up. You turn in your gen 1 or gen 2 shaft and get a new gen 3, which doesn't have the tacky issue. I have done many an upgrade for people and everyone I helped do it love the new generation of the shaft. But I understand if people were so off put by the previous generations that they don't want to give the gen 3 a try.

So let's ponder this for a second. I bought this shaft new, have receipts, and it has a material flaw that makes it pretty much unusable after a very small amount of play.

And to fix/warranty that original problem, your bad design, I have to give you another $150.

McDermott is a dead brand to me, I've moved on.

Defy shaft is junk. I tried to get McDermott to warranty the one I had, and they wanted $150 to resurface it. I declined and sold on eBay as quickly as I could.

Will never own another McDermott product again.

Why even go on vacation if you cant afford it?

Its not the gambling, it's not the swearing, its not the dumping, it's the cheap ass pool players keeping pool from becoming mainstream.

Holy shit, if I was a sponsor I'd pull every ad and $$$ from pool, there is no possible way you will ever make a cent by sponsoring pool.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned renting a uhaul and sleeping in that for his trip. Perhaps he could drink toilet water to save $$$, gotta be dumpsters he could eat out of.

Holy shit is this thread embarrassing 🤦‍♂️

Literally sitting here shaking my head, and it's not just this thread, it's every thread that has anything to do with staying, eating, drinking etc at an event or paying for a stream, entry into an event whatever.

Holy shit people

$10,000+ seats at the superbowl and its sold out, food and drink through the roof and the people that go don't bat an eye. THAT'S WHY THOSE SPORTS ARE ON TV and pool is not
