Most people in the current Cleveland, Ohio pool scene are good people, and not thieves. Speaking for the 9 foot table community, I'm not aware of one person who I would think would steal a cue from someone.

Lots of great minds have tried to find pool sponsors. Pool is a great game, and is TV/streaming worthy.

There is no good 7 foot table. The only real tables are 9, 10, or 12 feet.

Hayden Ernst and Neuhausen are Kaci level ceiling players. AJ Manas would step into the 825 plus before them.

You are the man, Greg! Be the shotmaker. My comment earlier about inconsistencies that you were exuding was made in jest and was only meant to help you. May you run tables and may blessings continue for you.

Greg, you have a lot of posts on this thread. Many include instruction to "not be negative" in your thinking. But then your motto is listed by your name as "just don't dog it". Planet earth is all around you, sir. With all due respect.

This song is hilarious. Cool that they included pool in the video.

I have read the posts replies up to this point. I hope that people are learning something from this. Its great to think of pool players improving in performance. My original post was a kindhearted gesture to support players.

I was a bit harsh in my original post, however, that harshness was in part to bring attention to this post for those newer players. And what I said in that post is true, WIthout the...

That is cool that you have been in Olympic time trials. Congrats for that. But there will never be a world class pool player who does not have a consistently quality and straight stroke, no matter how many battles they have been through.

Its a relative term that can be adapted to a variety of people. I'm not a "pound my ideas into people" person. Different people can arrive at their own conclusions for this. But it should be considered, and is truthfully the number one fundamental of pocket billiards.

Watch snooker players, where pocketing balls is much more challenging. You can't have a poor stroke and be a high level snooker player. The laws of nature prove that a superior (straight) stroke, all else equal, makes a superior player.

When one speaks, there can facts grounded in truth, and there can also be foolishness, falsehood, etc. I like being sincere and talking about facts, I'm not one to be rabble rousing or causing a stir with profanity or anything similar. This post is for newer players who want to learn the game...
