Difficult to find the 8 ball when playing with that set...

Doing it opposite to the striped ones would have been nice. A yellow ball with a centered white stripe. And easier to spot for sure

I posted a reply to a cue for sale. The Seller will remain nameless as he was legit after talking to him on the phone.

I made an offer in the reply, and got an email asking if I was the one that was interested and he would take the offer. Great! We emailed back and forth a few times and then when it came to arranging payment he gave me an email for a different email and name.

I reached out to the original seller, went to his webpage and called, and the emails i was getting were not from him! Please be careful. There should be now way that members of this group should have been able to get my email address, that just opens people up to getting scammed.

Watch out for James Witsel jwitsel20@gmail.com. HE IS A SCAMMER
His Zelle info is Chiquitinababy186@gmail.com Elizabeth Zayas. <<< SCAMMER

Okay well Coaches in the title warrants a tribute to My Coaches. Sports coaches Grandma was my favorite life coach.
My first little league baseball coach was blown off of 2 ships in ww2. He pitched equally well with either hand at a semi pro level. The military bases had quite a league with friendly bets between base comanders. Oops just remembered the truck driver that entered the army right out of high school. He didn't get a military uniform for 6 months as he was Huge and strong.
So thank you to Ray Ellis as he got me started catching at 8. GOOD COACHING. He also helped me gain a congressional appointment to USAFA in '69.
Next came Coach McHargue who could still be with us. His Mike Ditka Greenbay style of coaching took a football team that hadn't won a game in 2 and a half years to....uh 31 or 2 straight wins. Half way through his first season all but a skeleton crew had quit the team. THEY WON the last 6 to start the undefeated streak. Offense positions were first string in the voting with the players giving the coach their votes. I was playing center the year the first loss came to end the streak. I got All League at center weighing uh 155 at 5'10". Well we went both ways as we were a small school. We went 10 and 2 and Coach McHargue was uh not happy to say the least the practice after each defeat.
Well this has gone long winded but Mr Herb deserves a nod as My baseball finishing Coach. He taught How To Be A Hitter.
Be a hitter and they will find a place for you on the field. My brag accomplishment as a hitter was hitting the Wheel in competition. A 4 for 4 game with a single,double,triple and home run.
The Key is hit the pea in the middle of the ball.
It works for me well in pool.

The hotel I'm at is the Luxor. It's an Egyptian pyramid. The elevator goes at an angle, parallel to the pyramid sides.

Nick, in the Luxor, it's called an 'inclinator'.
