My main reason for not liking strange colored balls is that it is confusing. It's confusing to the players, it's confusing to the viewers and it's confusing even the commentators. Personally I think they are ugly as well, but that is just a matter of personal preference.
This crap wouldn't be happening if pool had an actual organization who cared about the game! I can understand using the tournament blue cloth, as that is scientifically determined to be a color that causes less eye strain. I don't like breaking the tradition of the green cloth, but here we are. At least the change was made for an actual reason, not just for the sake of change. Changing the color of the balls away from the tv colors, that were made to be easily distinguished, to a color scheme that are HARDER to distinguish than even the traditional colors makes ZERO sense! The traditional colors are nice to look at and can now (due to better technology) be easily distinguished on the tv's and computer monitors. Why not give tradition a chance?
There are other issues as well. I do not like a company that not only put a defective product out onto the market (cueball that rolled off), and actively pushed to have them in important tournament, then took ZERO responsibility for that and even DENIED that it ever happened on this very forum. "The cloth was stretched incorrectly".
Seriously, that's the company you are defending? By all means, buy the stupid skittle balls, "marbled" balls or whatever stupid crap you want, but don't lobby for others to use them, and especially don't cram them down peoples throats.
