Now you know.
I've been paying attention to how the mainstream media covers pool for decades, so I'm pretty confident that they won't be doing a feature story on pool.

Call me shallow
I don’t give a rats ass what the pocket or table specs are.
When Mosconi made his run-it was the record
When Schmit said he did that was the record*
Shaw made his run that IS the record
When the next guy runs more that will be the record. If he uses a different table with different dimensions, so be it he was smarter than Shaw or plays better.
Nobody else got close to Mosconi, Schmit or Shaw. Don’t care about the box.

As you understand it?!
You don’t understand it.
The specs are out there.
No information is hidden.
Shoot, and here I’ve only worked with “60 Minutes” twice.
And then there was all that time spent with “Good Morning America,” chatting with Katie Couric when she was a Pentagon correspondent, interviewing Pete Williams, and talking almost daily to all the major networks and newspapers.
But whadda I know.
So I look at it this way: “60 Minutes” is only (wait for it…) 60 minutes long. And actually, after you take out the commercials and promos (and that little clock ticking away) you’re probably down to less than 45 minutes. Sooooooo, if the DCC and Shaw just get a couple of minutes on a huge platform like that, it’s a win.
A big win.
BTW, not that you’d care but my eyes are great but the doc did have to take out a suture that had come loose.

That's great news. Can you point me to where the specs for the pocket opening angles are?
Do you object to players having the ability to make their attempts at the 714 record under identical conditions?
Powerful logic there. Very compelling argument.
Correct me. Where are the specs for the pocket facing angles?
Based upon your past posts I doubt you’d recognize logic if Socrates hisself came up and gave you a smooch.

It's plurals.
More deflection and dissembling.
lol, ask me if I care what you and a couple of other malcontents think.

Only a shady person would respond like that, or, they're flat out lying. Your little childish antics isn't boding well for this entire situation.
Your entire existence in this thread has been nothing but deflective and/or condescending.
Once again, get your head out of your ass.
And the first word in a sentence is supposed to be capitalized. Are you so upset over this that you keep committing spelling errors? You're beginning to act like RKC
Calm down, take a deep breath, and maybe you'll realize we're only responding in a like kind manner.
Ahhh....we are all well aware of your background by now. So you said all of that, to basically agree with my take. Got it.
Jeanette Lee ran 152. How do I know? Because she ran them in a match against me! Her previous best was 124, which she ran in a match against Mika Immomen. Both of these runs were nearly 20 years ago and both took place at the Amsterdam Billiard Club in New York City.

Says... oh, only you.
