No jump cues. No commentators that have never played pool. No "house rules" that go against BCA rules. No entry into a tournament after the draw. No handicaps...take your skirt off and play even. No referees that have zero knowledge of pool rules. Couldn't hold it to 3.

Google FedEx stealing packages and see what pops up. Commonly stolen is baseball cards sent to California to be graded for value. Since your cards have not been graded and appraised, your insurance claim will be zippo.

How much did the Heroin add to his game? Zero respect for players that died from Heroin. George SanSouci, those close to him verified it was Heroin, yet the pool world likes to glorify an addict. Commentators praise them and you wonder why big money sponsors turn away from pool.

"He's cob-webbing the shot." (Taking so long to decide, that a spider wove a web over the pocket.) I nicknamed a local player "Cobweb" and the name stuck. He's a really nice fellow, but I duck the slow crawlers. I want to pocket more than 8 balls an hour.

I wrap the ferrule with 3M Nylon fiber tape and use sandpaper strips. I change the tape as soon as it shows signs of wear. I wrap the ferrule and I'm selective in which grade of sandpaper to use. 1/2" to 1" strips. Patience is what makes it turn out perfect. If pool is a big part of your life...

I've heard commentators from the booth that obviously never saw a pool table before. Every rack this clown would say " Do I see a 1-9 combo coming up to end the game early?" No, the 9 is on the top rail and the one on the bottom rail. I heard a live stream commentator say "Well, will you get a...

Bob Frey could answer your question. He worked with Tim Scruggs in his shop for over 20 years, as did Mike Cochran. I had many hour long conversations with Tim and I believe he told me he bought the butts for sneakys as blanks and not much work was needed to complete them. His shaft wood was...

Steel toed boots. They're the ideal tool to extract a refund from a cue maker that does nothing.

I wouldn't worry too much about warp. A friend of mine was in a car accident, which resulted in a fatality. New York State Police put his car in impound for a little over 2 years while they "investigated.". His Joss cues still rolled straight after 2 years in the car trunk.

Because he's highly infected with TDS. He's a slug.

Charlie Bryant revealed the truth about Johnny Archer on a stream he was doing commentary on. Same clip, he told how Rempe demanded $100. to sign a cueball for a kid in a wheel chair that was battling Cancer. Somebody paid Rempe the $100. he demanded. Respect is earned, not demanded.

Charlie Bryant let the cat out of the bag on Archer. Zero respect for that slug. I once heard him tell Earl that he'd take him outside. Earl replied "I'll fold you up like the bag of bones you are."

Choose your words carefully. Not given to profanity, I usually tell them to go commit a sexual act upon themselves.

I love to load the ball with juice, To see it dance and spin. I sometimes get 9 rails. It helps me get a win. I spin it hard with outside On every hanging ball It glides along the rails To see what else will fall.

Before a match, somebody will always ask "How does he play?" The answer is "He'll be shooting at you with firepower."
