    8 year old in the "Pit" at SBE

    The kids dad should be charged with impairing the welfare of a child. To me what he did with his son is a crime. Someone mentioned basketball and tennis. You don't condone bad behavior with other bad behavior.

    Earl's version of what happened at SBE.

    All this uproar and meanwhile Johnny Archer and Earl are now going to match up. I wouldn't be surprised if they have already decided who will take the cash. When it comes to pool, there is no class. It's all about the players trying to survive in a sport that really doesn't pay to be a pro.

    Earl's version of what happened at SBE.

    By being in the stands watching how could you tell if the balls were tilted or not?

    Earl's version of what happened at SBE.

    The only thing i know of this is in another match the commentator mentioned that the TD was a jerk and no one could question him about anything. He also complimented him but it was kind of a sideways compliment. Earl has a quick fuse and players and fans like to see him go off. I for one rather...

    Is IT A BLESSING OR A CURSE

    Sorry to say it but most pro pool players wind up unhappy and broke.About a month ago there was a collection for Danny Di because he was in the hospital recovering from a stroke. Today there is a collection for Ginky for funeral expenses. If you live from hand to mouth it will eventually catch...

    Thanks RandyG, I Quit a Month Ago

    I sometimes play with a former pro who told me that when he plays against me he is really playing against himself and he goes full out without any thought to who he is playing. According to him pool is about playing yourself everytime you get to the table. It is about making shots and position...

    Some Of the reasons kids don't play pool

    Johnny you forgot to mention going to the Bronx zoo. I don't understand all the threads about pool is dead or why kids don't play. First off i see on TV a lot of pool tables in commercials and in sit-coms besides in the crime dramas where they always show the bad guys playing pool. In the UFC...

    Szamboti, Haley, SW, Prewitt, Tascarella, Mottey, Scruggs

    Nice looking collection. The Gus looks "almost" exactly like mine. I guess we have have good taste.:) I too have 3 shafts but my third one was made by Barry. I let Dennis try these cues out a few weeks ago. He loves playing with Gus's cues. He is about the only one i would entrust to play with...

    Dress Code for Gold Crown Billiards, Erie, PA

    I can't believe this thread is still going on. I would imagine that the dress code also goes with common sense. If a person walked in wearing jeans that looked clean and he or she presented themselves as upstanding Paul would have no problem letting them play.His code is to keep out...

    What size is your table in your house? Trying to decide between 8 and 9 foot.

    i have a 9 foot table that is about 40 years old. I had to have a mechanic straighten it out but it plays perfectly. If you have the space then you have to go 9. It really doesn't matter to much what brand as long as it is straight and true.

    Mueller's Sporting Goods

    It seems like everyone agrees that Muellers is a great billiard business. Could it be that someone returned the case and they re-old it as new because it looked un-used. Whatever the problem i'm inclined to believe that the op went off on them and they decided he wasn't worth the hassle over a...

    Who is really the best?

    The whole premise is not worth discussing. Why buy a Rembrandt? After all its just oil and canvas. There are tons of other artists who paint. So when you compare cues for value you can't. There is no point in discussing this.

    George B. was originally from Russia. So good looking cues from there don't surprise me.
