A tradition? Sure… if we’re calling every copied celebration a tradition and I guess every tradition has a starting point when it was first done. It’s not something with deep roots in pool history. Feels more like “monkey see, monkey do” than genuine culture. I suspect a lot of it is promoter...

Improving the billiard community and billiard industry needs are two different things. The industry will always chase what’s profitable or has the potential to be. That’s usually dictated by the professional tours and it doesn’t necessarily mean it improves the game. Take jump cues, for...

Barry Sanders, hall of fame NFL running backs - 109 touchdowns, never spiked the ball even once, never one end-zone dance. He treated the end zone like he’d been there before and like he knew he’d be back… Nothing but a thing. That’s how I see winners. Same with pool - a player who expects to...

Damn it - when you think the opening was clear as windexed glass. 😳

Yes of course, one for now and one for later… 12 seconds later. 😁

That is the point - that kind of cool died with them. But their artistry made all three immortal. Lucky for us!

They act as though they are sheeple. 😳

That DAB has always only chosen herself…

Are these stories written by the member JoeyA here on the AZB forum?

Across the street from Pickle’s… I don’t even know if either are still open?

Yeah I’m sure that’s his story and he’s sticking to it… 😉

Looks like they swallowed something pointed! 🤔

That explains it! 😳

Okay, fair enough, maybe I read into your post and took it as having something against gambling, mainly because I thought you were being dismissive of how well Mark played and referencing the absence of tournaments history. I get that when people “rack-n-stack” players, tournament wins are what...

Okay look, your earlier post had a bit of a dismissive tone about how well Mark Tadd played. I’m not arguing that he belongs in the Hall of Fame and I get that his career was short. But during the time he was playing, he could run with anyone in the country. He wasn’t just a threat to possibly...

Different goals, different priorities. I’m not knocking any of the legends who ran marathons. Some could match up for the cash, some not so much, but however they built their legacies, on tour or off, they earned every bit of it. It’s just different strokes for different folks. Tournament life...

Great start… 4. Ball in hand in the kitchen only. 5. Roll out allowed after the break. 6. Yeah I know it was mentioned in your first change but BAN JUMP CUES.

All stuff most US citizens don’t know.

I think that’s a bit of a simplistic take on Mark’s game. He wasn’t JUST a threat to beat anyone. he did beat just about everyone, regularly. The fact that he didn’t grind out five day tournaments doesn’t mean he couldn’t win them. It just means he wasn’t interested in living on the hamster...
