Mike Sigel Custom Cue

OK, I'm back. The way I see it, that cue is made of wood. God made that wood & now you're hocking it for $1900? Shame on you! Tell you what, if you send me that cue, I promise I will saw the joint off & sharpen it & will only use it to kill vampires, deal?
 
Your kidding right?

I have owned several of Mike's custom cues...not the production import models which I used to sell in the pro-shop, but the true customs.

While I did not hit with all of them, a couple of them were very sporty players, one purpleheart into ebony with ivory diamonds, in particular.

Although many of these posts are somewhat humorous at first, they are still hurtful and I know we are all above this.... or at least some of us are. Most of you guys operate in the pool room with a live and let live attitude, so why not here? Everyone has known someone in their life that has had some sort of "religious awakening" or "divine intervention" that feels the need to spread their gospel enlightenment to everyone they come across whether we ask for it or not. Here you aren't cornered, you can click the back button. He joined AZBilliards, he may choose to stick around or not. Ridicule is fruitless unless your goal is to run him off the board and he leaves. How about we just live and let live?

ps... yes.. I had a few laughs on many of the comments and almost threw a stone myself. We're above this.

With all due respect, my take on the subject is as follows:

1.) It's an intrusion, plain and simple... Kind of like the guy wearing nothing but a trench coat, walking around, flashing unsuspecting people.

2.) Some may be offended by the fact that this individual is demonizing pool while attempting to exploit a website devoted to pool in order to pedal his wares.

3.) I can't speak for everyone, but I'm a free-thinking adult, capable of making my own choices, and I will not be condescended upon by a person claiming to know what is "infinitely" better for me and everyone else.

That being said, I agree that employing a little empathy wouldn't be such a bad thing in cases like this.
 
I'm not demonizing the activity of pool, though it may very well be a vain self-ambition.
Also price cut to $1400.


The reason I'm giving it up is this:
"The Kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it. -Matthew 13:47-50
Then Jesus said to his disciples, "I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, "Who then can be saved?" Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." Matthew 19:23-26
And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first."
-Matthew 19:27-30
"If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters- yes, even his own life- he cannot be my disciple. And anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple" Luke 14:26-27
In the same way, any of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be my disciple. -Luke 14:33

And please forgive me PhilosopherKing for any form of condescending on you.
I made the assumption that life is infinitely better than death. My statements of truth were not meant to be intrusive. If there is anyway I can serve you please message me.
 
They play great.

Mikes cues are made for breaking and running racks. They have a great hit to them. Good luck on your sale. Jesus told me to say that.:thumbup: poolrod.
 
Maybe I'm in the minority here but I'm not troubled by MikeSigelCue's posts. He's not proselytizing. He's just telling us why he's selling his cues in favor of a different direction in life. Others leave pool for different hobbies or whatever. He's leaving to spend time on religion. More power to him.

A bunch of other posters have religious references in their usernames or profiles. It's not what I'm into but it doesn't bother me. I don't see why MikeSigelCue deserves to get berated for this.

On the topic of the thread, if you want to sell that Mike Sigel cue for $1400, best of luck.

I sincerely hope you find whatever it is you're looking for. As for me, I'm going to cut myself some slack and live my life.

Good luck with your sale. Of all the cues that I've had, the Sigel is the one I've kept the longest.

x2! My thoughts exactly...

Good luck with your sale!
 
I have 2 Sigel cues and I have been praying that I could sell them for close to what I bought them for.

So far my prayers have not been answered.
 
We are called to be complete disciples, obeying all of the gospel, set apart to be become righteous through faith in Him for the salvation of our souls.

Luke 14:26-33"If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters—yes, even his own life—he cannot be my disciple. 27And anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.

28"Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Will he not first sit down and estimate the cost to see if he has enough money to complete it? 29For if he lays the foundation and is not able to finish it, everyone who sees it will ridicule him, 30saying, 'This fellow began to build and was not able to finish.'

31"Or suppose a king is about to go to war against another king. Will he not first sit down and consider whether he is able with ten thousand men to oppose the one coming against him with twenty thousand? 32If he is not able, he will send a delegation while the other is still a long way off and will ask for terms of peace. 33In the same way, any of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be my disciple.

John 15:10 If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love.
 
Hmmm

Well Jesus Said you should give me the cue and forget the $800..and for me to give %10 to the church!:p:grin::eek:

Nah, I personally didn't like Sigel's hit...but I know that Cj Wiley plays with one, and it is ebony as mentioned above..

Man o man, Mike...You must found Jesus right after that "guy who has no chance playing me" (Josh Degler) tortured you for the cash in Orlando about a year and a half ago.

That kinda thing when you were a world champ is definitely enough to make a guy find religion.. Especially after trash talking him for like 30 minutes before he took yer cashola.

What??

I'm just SAYIN'!!! :D :D :D

I don't think "MikeSigelCue" is actually Mike....just a player who is looking to move one of Mike's custom cues.
