Pool isn't really being used in this case. That's like saying that a Levi's commercial where a bunch of people are playing 2-hand touch in the park, is using football for their financial gain. But you're right, UA will not be throwing any sponsorship toward pool anytime soon. Although, they're...

I think it makes sense to dress up "a little bit". Make it somewhat respectable but don't overdo it. Also, I'm talking about events that require dress codes not the local weekly tournament. Some of the requirements are ridiculous and make the players look like clowns.

The above could be said for cues, cars, homes and anything else that is visible to other people. If you value something and you can afford it, then you should treat yourself to whatever you want. More often than not, comments like that are made by people who can't afford the things they want.

I think one of the problems with some of the comments I read here about how pool players dress, is the delusional assumption that pool players understand what that means. Just because you put on a suit or slacks with a button-down, doesn't mean you look good. I'm willing to bet that about 80%...

I don't care if they ever play. I just want more photoshop :)

Ooops, messed that up, shows how much i post here, trying again... Tony Ignomirello 2011 Tournament Results: 7th Tri State Tour Stop 4th Tri State Tour Stop 1st Tri State Tour Stop 3rd Tri State Tour Stop 3rd Tri State Tour Stop 3rd Tri State Tour Stop 9th Predator 9-Ball Tour Stop...

My game with Cleary... This thread is a train wreck but I can't help getting involved. I'm ranked as a B on Tri-State, Predator and at Amsterdam league (when I used to play there). When me and Cleary gamble, I give him 3 on 8, the 8 ball and the breaks... And he still can't beat me. I would...

This is one of those situations where no one wins. We are all losing right now...

I disagree if anyone says that any coverage is good coverage. If anything, this kind of coverage is detrimental to the game. I've had friends that don't know anything about pool watch WPBA matches and ask "why is everyone clapping for those easy shots?" There are quite a few things wrong with...

I did hear about that actually. Which I thought was kind of funny because he does remind me of a clown. I guess if he got kicked out for doing that I would understand it more. But in his interview, Frank said that he kicked Earl out for asking him that question which just makes no sense to me.

Not defending Earl, but... I don't post very often, and only when a topic really sparks my interest. This one has lured me in. What I'm curious about is the TD's account of the story. I was there when Earl got kicked out but was too far to hear what was actually said. I guess what I don't...

Now that I've seen the video I think this dude is just off his rocker. He kinda scares me actually. Considering what I just saw, even I will play him, and I'm terrible. My proposition - 1 game of snooker on a 3-cushion table for a Happy Meal and a box of crayons. Bet?

Is this guy for real? I keep waiting for him to say that he's just kidding about everything. What's with these propositions? A race to 1,000? Really? A bet on a drill? Are you high? Please tell us this is all a big joke. If not then I guess this guy has just got really good at doing drills...
