    The quickest path to a straight, repeatable stroke, and the best metric used to evaluate it.

    I perform the Mighty X drill a lot. I have an issue, though, and have been trying to figure out why. I shoot an entire rack (8 in one direction and 8 on the other diagonal; I use the Rempe training ball the set came with as my 16th) with a short backstroke low cue speed. I can shoot all 16...

    weird 8 ball, or am I dreaming??

    I played a version of 8 recently where my non-pool playing friends shot like Scotch Doubles but it was more like Scotch Septuples. Their inning was all seven players and their turn was over after all seven had a turn. If any one of them made a ball they would keep shooting until they missed...

    BCA, TAP Small local handicapped tournaments I don’t remember the brands but on the “competition” side there are: 4x9’ tables for 14.1 and 1P that play fast, bouncy cushions, tough corner pocket angle faces. Shoot down the rail with precision and touch or balls will rattle out; 12x8’ tables...

    The long decline of ESPN

    As soon as Steven A Smith appears (if I have tuned in by accident) on the screen, the channel is changed as quickly as I can get my hands on the remote. (His initials SAS are in the wrong order.)
