Thanks for posting, Ideologist! I didn't know about Surge, but I have to go to Roger's Park soon, so I can take a little detour and check out this new room. Looks great.

Last year the score was 11-3 Europe. This year the score was 11-4 Europe. Take heart America! We're getting closer!

Tell that to Nick Varner!

Thanks for the heads up, moose man! I am busy with other things, and lost track of the MC, so now I can watch it. Last year it streamed live on ESPN3, in the early afternoon here in Chicago. If you have a Roku, the ESPN channel is available, and ESPN3 is inside that. Listings for the stream...

Here are some pool table reviews: http://www.mainehomerecreation.com/product-reviews/

Shane IS a great player, and I'm a fan, but he doesn't seem to do well at MC. He looks miserable as well, most of the time. I hope this year it will be different for him. Bergman and Skyler were great last year, it almost looked like they were down at the hall, just playing a casual game, joking...

Only in America do people put down education, and brag about being ignorant. This is why you get a lying moron as President.

Lots of Blake Shelton is played at our spot, for whatever reason. I am a fan of old country, say, from the 60's and 70's, but I find the new stuff utter crap. I am also with WildWing on the stupid "oh" trope that pervades post-rock these days; if I had only known that that is all it takes to be...

1. No. 2. The plural of pro is "pros", not "pro's".

Apparently the standards for heroism have fallen recently. About a month and a half ago, I was playing my father-in-law, and he dropped five on the break. He hadn't played in about five years; he is 74.

It's okay if the cue grazes your nipple when shooting. If the cue grazes other peoples nipples when you shoot, you need to fix something.

Can you wash (as in, with a bucket and brush, and some soap) the cloth on tables? Our favorite table where we play was being washed by a staff member, and we were unable to play on it. When we finally got to play on it, it looked bad - you could see where some of the spots had been scrubbed...

From the Onion:

We don't know these people all that well, but things might develop... For the record, we don't own fancy cues, I own a $110 Schmelke, and my wife has an old Wilson (yes) that she paid $15 for, and refuses to part with, even though I tried to talk her into a new cue. She can still beat me with...
