    Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there usually a pre-Swanee tournament Friday night before it starts? Is anything like that happening tonight? Johnny

    And if I lost the bet, the beer would be delivered by a leprechaun riding a unicorn.

    Swanee tournament - this weekend!!!!

    I heard he's been playing too much golf lately. Barely runs 200 in 14.1 anymore. I'd bet a beer from the bar at Hard Times that he wouldn't get to 4 against you. Johnny

    Swanee tournament - this weekend!!!!

    Dogs vs. The Sandwich Man I heard the line is Mitchell -3. I can't find anyone taking action on it, though. :-) Johnny

    Finally my new Hercek cue is on the way

    Mighty fine looking cue. Is his waiting list really 10 years like it says on his website? Johnny

    Anvil, Orange Crusher & Grim Reaper

    Great deal for the Orange Crusher, as well. Hands down my favorite break cue, and also the one people borrow the most. I'll have to tell them to buy their own now. Johnny

    Hello....and I have a question.

    As my friends on here have mentioned, I bought one from Mike when he ran a special on them, mostly because I liked the way it looked, and I didn't like the McDermott Stinger j/b that I had at the time. Once I got it, I loved it. It has a very long taper, which I like because it allows me to...

    But wouldn't the app then tell your opponent to ask for weight? Johnny

    Vegas bound again!!!!!!!!!

    Joe, That's why I put *California* in there as well. To distinguish my merry band of lushes from the countless other groups of drunks from the Midwest and South. :-) Johnny

    Vegas bound again!!!!!!!!!

    Robley, Me and my 8 ball team, Liver Failure, will be out there Aug. 21-27. We will be the loud, drunk California people taking shots during their matches. If you think you see us, come up and say hi. Same goes for any other AZer's out there. I'll have a flask of Jameson, and I'm always...

    APA 6 vs. BCA Advanced level player. What is a fair spot?

    As I mentioned previously, getting the breaks keep him from putting packages on me. I may not run out consistently but it keeps him from putting packages on me. His break is a lot better than mine. But I do get what you are talking about. Against someone closer to my own level I would rather...

    APA 6 vs. BCA Advanced level player. What is a fair spot?

    Thanks to everyone for the responses. And yes, that was an atypical break performance for me. I usually am able to keep the cue ball near the center of the table, I was just overhitting those early breaks. Once I took some speed off I stopped scratching. I also switched from the cut break to a...

    APA 6 vs. BCA Advanced level player. What is a fair spot?

    Just looking for opinions and I didn't know a better way to describe the differences in our respective levels of play. He is listed as an Advanced player in BCA. I'm a 6 in APA and an 8 in my BCAPL league (on a 10 point scale there). I matched up in a quick race to 5 playing bar box 9 ball with...

    Has anyone ever turned down a Sugartree shaft?

    Eric, No problem about the e-mails. I remember seeing you post something on here shortly after I sent it saying you had something like 500+ e-mails to go through. When I didn't get a response after a month or so, I figured my e-mail was lost in cyberspace, because you were incredibly quick with...

    Has anyone ever turned down a Sugartree shaft?

    So I bought a Sugartree directly from Eric last year, and I love the way it hits. My only complaint, and it is a minor one, is that I'm not crazy about the taper of the shaft. I have fat fingers, and when I use a closed bridge I have a little trouble with being able to follow through as far as I...

    BK2 BCA legal????

    Brock, The standard BK2 comes with a phenolic tip, so it wouldn't be BCA legal. I'm pretty happy with the Samsara tip that I have on my Orange Crusher- it spreads the balls great and is a hard leather tip. I've also heard good things about White Diamond tips, although I don't know much about...

    Kamui Chalk

    Jaden, If you read down to the disclosures at the bottom of the home page, it pretty clearly spells out that it is tongue in cheek. Unless it is true that Nabisco factory workers were enslaved by a group of insurrectionist hamsters. In which case I'm TOTALLY PISSED that I missed out on hearing...
