    Righty / Lefty

    I heard that Mike Sigel is actually Right-handed, but his early Instructor was a Lefty, so Mike played Pool as a Lefty. I hope someone can verify this, one way or another.

    Righty / Lefty

    I’m a Lefty in Pool from the start, the same for writing and eating. However, in the other major Sports, I’m right-handed, and always have been-Baseball, Basketball, Football, , Hockey, Golf, Shooting Guns, all right handed. My Mom was an Identical Twin, and out of Four Boys, Two of us were...

    If you can get these through airport security, why not a pool cue?

    The Airlines have some Crazy rules, and they are not even consistent at the different Airports. This is obviously ridiculous. The Airlines asked a Lady with a Miniskirt on, if she had on Underwear, and told her that she couldn’t sit on the Seat without Panties or other underwear, but a Male...

    Josh Robert’s would have been a better choice than Woolford, and so would Oscar Dominguez or Billy Thorpe.

    MOSCONI CUP 2023 AZB Watch Party / Master Thread

    They could have chosen Josh Robert’s or Oscar Dominguez, instead of Shane Woloford. Shane Van Boeing’s negative body language, along with shoulder shrugs and ”Oh Well” facial expressions are killing the entire Team’s confidence, and then when SVB misses an easy shot , he isn’t supporting and...

    1992 US Open Straight Pool Championships - Jim Rempe vs Allan Hopkins

    Allen was/is a Great Player, truly deserving to be in the Hall of Fame, but did he ever take criticism because of his Stroke? Hopkins has a kind of Poke to his Stroke, and McCready was a Side-Armed Shooter, but obviously were World-Class Players, and players seem to be more alike these recent years.

    US Open hard to watch

    I agree with you 100 percent, I love Pool, but some things don’t need to be studied to death. I know that everyone doesn’t play at the same speed or pace, and some calm themselves or try to be consistent by doing the exact same thing on every Shot, but it is Brutal.

    A Purple Five Ball Makes No Sense to Me

    I was always taught that they were all 8 numbers apart: 1&9, 2& 10, 3 & 11, 4 & 12,etc.. With all of the bragging on TV resolution, it’s ridiculous to have to change colors. If the felt is Green, shouldn’t we be able to easily tell?

    2022 DCC Discussion Thread

    The Young Female Polish Women’s Champion that I was referring to is Oliwia Zalewska, and she trains with Fortunski, Szewczyk, Zielinski, Babica, Juszczyszyn,Sniegocki, and other rising Stars. I agree that most American players dress like Casual Bums, but that’s not just Americans, in America. In...

    2022 DCC Discussion Thread

    People were complaining that America loses to the European Champions because of their obsession with Gambling, while European, well-trained, drill-trained player concentrate on Tournaments. So now, the European Star Players, the Asians, and Filipino players came to America and competed in the...

    Jeremy Jones taking over for Earl on team

    I don’t know how you can possibly try to speak for “Minorities “,and try to explain the myriad reasons why they (we) may or may not have received the vaccine! The reasons vary widely, just as it does with the White population, Police, Firefighters, Nurses, and Teachers. Do you think all Blacks...

    Jeremy Jones taking over for Earl on team

    More people die on the street in low-speed crashes, than on the Highways. So, try again. It’s about risk, its much safer to fly than to drive, but we drive much more often, knowing that traffic going the other way can cross the line and it’s most likely death for us. Is the risk worth driving...

    J. Shaw's wife...................

    I said the same thing on Neight’s Facebook page, and during the Podcast, they insulted the listeners that said that it was irresponsible of Jayson to leave his Wife barely conscious, or nearly dead, on the floor, unable to get up or hold a Cup! It’s Jayson’s decision, and his Wife, but she hit...

    Lefties vs Righties

    I meant to say that I eat, write, Shoot Pool,play Guitar as a Lefty. I was also told that Lefty's are one step closer to being Crazy, in some way, than Righty's, no matter what else we are good at.😄

    Lefties vs Righties

    I Shoot Pool as a Lefty, but as a Child, relatives tried to take Pens and Pencils from my left Hand, to force me to be a Righty, but my Parents stopped them from steering me away from what was natural for me. I don't remember if that affected my preferences without my Parent's knowledge, but I...

    Consensus "Greatest of All Time" (GOAT) List

    I would put Parica on an equal or superior level to Reyes, and any other Filipino. Nobody really wanted to tangle with Parica, and nobody had to like it, or come out on top! I would love to have been able to see Chang Jun-Lin versus Strickland/Siegel/Hall/Reyes/Lassiter in their prime! However...
