You lost me at APA 2... Jump cues suck. PERIOD

There is something to be said about putting someone in an unkickable position. Jump shots took the skill to do that right out of the equation. Pool has suffered ever since.

He was like Petey Fusco's right arm. What a great guy. May he rest in peace.

You know. I kinda wanna watch some pool right now. Let me go find some stuff on youtube.

Bunch O' Suckers:D

This is why I now play with cues made in China that cost next to nothing that play F-ing great. I have several black boars. Got them before prices went ballistic. No way in hell I am going to get a shaft made for that money when I can get 3 cuetec R360s for example, for the same price. I can...

Shame you weren't there at night. Drexeline had 48 players at their handicap tournament. There were plenty of people you could have matched up with. Food for thought next time you're in town.

The game with 1 ball is called bare ball. It's like a 1 ball version of one pocket. Drexeline has a weekly handicapped tournament tonight. $5 entry, loser pays table time for the lost match. (Both players) But if you are a strong player, they will try to rate you accordingly cause they don't...

Nah. I disagree. Zuglan makes the rules for his regional tour and the Turning Stone tournaments. He doesn't like jump cues. He's old school. Nothing wrong with that. Jump cue has and always will be a shortcut. IMO I have zero problem with banning jump cues being implemented. I disagree with the...

I'm sure Mark is watching this thread carefully. He'll chime in soon enough. But the more negative you are in your responses, the quicker he will come on here and rip everyone for their negativity, and how this is a positive thing for the pool industry (which it very well might be, I wouldn't...

Just the fact that you have had established Pros and high end players, dealing drugs, ripping off change machines, borrowing money from suckers and never paying them back, and selling counterfeit gold and silver coins, should be a testament to exactly how bad pool sucks and why some good...

Zuglan is the only one who gets it. No jump cues allowed in Joss events, including Turning Stone. Arguably the nicest tournament venue in the country. Learn how to kick or give up BIH. End of story.

Top 100 golfer makes what? 100 or 200K? If that money were in pool, you would have at least 100 people quitting everything and just travelling and playing. If it was money like the money that's in tennis, you'd have a boatload of people quitting their job tomorrow. If the crappiest player on...

As long as the players in contention don't have to kiss any particular ass, or bend over when commanded to by someone hosting a points event. And as long as tournament directors don't mysteriously insert players in contention for spots, into tournaments that they screwed up on by not getting...

Why would anyone with any type of responsibilities, want to quit a decent career working, to play pool? LOL That's just retarded. There are probably a few pool players around Open speed, who could probably have decent showings at venues if they dropped everything and just played pool every damn...

How are the points tournaments determined? Added money? Field size? Years running? WHO makes that determination?

Make jump cues an option. Before the match, a player can choose to have the use of a jump cue available, or not. If they choose to be able to use jump cues in a match, they lose on 2 fouls. If they choose not to use a jump cue during their match, they lose on the traditional 3 fouls. Once the...

LOL. Yeah, add him to the list of everyone who ever thought that shooting kinda straight, meant they were good at other things as well. He is and always has been very annoying in the booth. No insight as to what the possibilities on the table are, whatsoever. He gives you simple generic stuff.

Sky is still getting laid something fierce tonight!

I don't care about rankings. I don't care about rating systems. I don't really care how much he played in whatever year. Sky needs to be on this team for AT LEAST the next 5 years. He is thriving under these conditions. A little more seasoning and he will only get better.
