I purchased a Delta-13 elite years ago after they first came out and have never looked back. It wasn't cheap, but it still gives a tight rack after years of use and it is going to outlive me. People complained about how loud they were, but most people that own one know how to mitigate the noise...

How about 2001 when Corey Deuel shutout Mika Immonen 11-0 in the U.S. Open final? I've never seen an opponent as frustrated as Mika was during that match.

My man!!! 90% of my CD collection are Blues discs.

It was a tongue-in-cheek post. Not meant to be taken seriously.

You and me both, my friend! I quit league after my stroke 4 1/2 years ago. I have lost a portion of my thinking ability and almost all of my stamina (I am literally sucking air after a couple of racks). I petitioned with the league operator 4 years ago to reduce my skill level by one level...

If you build it, they will come!

The one I posted comes with an extension, and a spare tip and a cube of (probably) cheap chalk.

I got one each for my wife and my grandson. I put Sniper tips on both of them. I am satisfied with the way they now play, especially for the price I paid for them.

It wasn't all that long ago (it seems) that a cue like that sold for about $50.

I think Skyler in his prime was probably near their level. I wish he still played like he did ten years ago. I've said this before on these forums and I'll say it again now. I'm not totally against jump cues/jumping balls. But, I do think they should only be allowed for an incoming player. If a...

I'm gonna get raked over the coals for posting this, but here goes...

He may not be playing nowadays for all I know. I was just referring to how well he played past his middle-aged years. Beat some of the top players back in the day.

Let's not leave Warren Kiamco off this list. Not a world beater, but well beyond middle-aged I'd stake him against damn near anyone commenting on an AZB post.

Even the pros have to make choices. Mistakes are sometimes made. I've seen literally hundreds of shots played improperly over my many years of watching. They usually opt for the shot they think they have the best chance of successfully completing. I've heard many a commentator question a...

I'm never going to second guess a top tier pro. Any way he played it COULD have sold out. JMO
