Larry Hubbart and Terry Bell were inducted into the Billiard Hall of Fame in 2010.

"...Mike Davis is looking to leave the tour and ..." Tour? What tour?

"... it gives too much away to the lower skill players.." and "... on top of that it's too easy to get at least a point if you're a 2 or 3, only win one game...." Not completely but to a large degree THAT WAS THE POINT. To make the night more enjoyable, rewarding and a challenge for the...

The thing about tie-breakers (all tie-breakers, not just this one) is that someone has be on the losing end. That person or team will ALWAYS be unhappy. They will ALWAYS reply with "but what if ...... ". They will ALWAYS want the rules changed after the fact to suit their side of the story...

I meant in the context of submitting written inquires and getting a reply. Sorry, I should have been clearer in my OP. Was not meaning to imply that the subject of this thread falls under the umbrella of disciplinary action. More like an administration question. Sorry. My mistake.

Or you could refer to page 46, para 38 in the APA Official Team Manual and proceed as you think appropriate. No monetary expense, just a little time and effort. You will get a reply.

FULL DISCLOSURE - I've been an APA LO for 32 years in Jackson County, MO (greater Kansas City). Never once have I forced a player onto a team. You guys gather your own group of eight players together and form your own teams. You know what you are getting in the way of pool playing ability as...

Good grief ! I am not going to check your posting history before responding to something. Who does that? Sometimes scarcasm in print does not come across as scarsasm. It's hard to read "between the lines" of a stranger, etc. If you're honest (it sounds like it) and she's honest (sounds like...

"... i got a diamond in the rough here fellas if i can keep her a 2. " And that comment pretty much explains why so many of you guys have a problem with the APA. The players skill level is NOT a barrier to be overcome, so let's "keep her a 2". The skill level is a number that represents her...

No guarantee the player or coach will put the chalk cube in the right place, or the shooter will hit that exact spot, or the shooter will be able to calculate effect of a soft or hard rail rebounds or slow or fast cloth, etc. So many variables still in effect for such a shot that to use a chalk...

Darryl - This is a great idea. Hope you show is a great success. TC

To the OP - You're an idiot. What the hell were you thinking? Glad you're still alive, but really.....

What the hell does "crop dust your opponent" mean? You children have to start communicating in regular english language words. Please and thank you.

So you (the OP) played on the table with bad rolls and your opponent played on the table with good rolls? Could it possibly be that the other team was better than you? You finish 33 out of 256 (I think that was your stated finish) and are unhappy. I wonder what the teams that finished...

And YOU are exactly the type of player welcome in the APA. Congratulations on the sportsmanship and attitude. You could play in my APA franchise anytime though I'm sure you will soon be labeled as a sucker and suck up on this board. Brace yourself. LOL FULL DISCLOSURE - I've been an APA...

"The player did not cheat. He was told by the lo to play as a 3. " What is the name of this APA LO who knew someone was a SL 4 in the adjacent area yet allowed him to play as a SL 3 ? This assumes we are NOT talking about 8 ball in one area and 9 ball in the other. Because that would...

I think I was around 14 or 15. Her name was Linda something and she made me be on the bottom. She had a great rack and my stroke was in fine form that day. That is what you meant? Right?

It is a common misconception that new APA male players start at SL four (new females at SL 3). WRONG! For both males and females. They (lets refer to males, for purposes of this post) start as a "non-rated player" on that first night, which means they count as a SL 4 for purposes of the 23...

"This is unrelated to nationals " Then what's it related to?

I thought all players had to already be tournament qualified and ON the roster before start of the week. No last minute add ons allowed. Unless you're talking about bringing in a ringer with fake ID? In that case, the line will stretch around the block.
