Racks and balls.

I've never dealt with shipping losses but: Wouldn't the tube weigh less empty? Couldn't you show when shipped it weighed XX and an empty tube weighs YY? A cue is a little over a lb, so enough to show up on postage scales...

Love what you did with that room! Specifically the colors, wall color, hardwood floor, and lighting. Looks great! :D As for the fridge, you mentioned a clear door fridge...you can find these relatively reasonably from soda distributors. Look into coke, Pepsi, etc clear door display fridge...

Two completely different games. Nt even comparable. That said, cue sports are related in that someone good with a cue has a huge leg up learning the other game. Earl went and played Russian pyramid and did ok with hardly any practice, so anyone who thinks pool players have "no chance" is...

Again with the personal attacks. Once more, are you the drunk police? Do you breath test your teammates before their league matches? Seeing a guy doing a few shots....omg! He might be impaired for league play! So now you are scouting everyone and determining who is allowed to drink and...

It's also pretty hilarious how your sig quotes Keither when he was well known for playing fast and loose and with a skinful. If he was on your Important League Team you'd have had a coronary. :lol:

Yeah, it being a posting forum, I have the right to reply sparky. Sorry it isn't your league match where you can call on a ref for silence. :lol: Again, you advocate being the bar drunk police to watch your teammates because OMG an opponent bought them a drink! Horror of horrors! And how dare...

Eight whole years! Well damn, how can anyone even open their mouths in the presence of a Professional. :lol:

Look here's another post where you spell out exactly what sort of person you are. You can't even have a civil discussion about uptight league players without personal attacks. Again, congrats.....you are "that guy."

Whatever helps you sleep at night. Your pissy posts in this thread speak volumes about what sort of person you are. Mediocre is funny too, because from first hand observations the armchair warriors who get so butthurt over meaningless league matches are always people who wouldn't bet a...

Hint: you aren't deputy dawg and the drunk police sparky. If you are so intensely into league that you are worried about your teammates blood alcohol content, maybe you should take a step back and realize wtf you are so concerned about. Pool league, like softball, darts, and every other rec...

I never knew I was claustrophobic until I saw this picture. I've seen gruesome accident photos and videos, vids of skateboarders getting severely injured, etc, but none of that makes me as uncomfortable as this picture for some reason. Just picturing being that guy and unable to move or breathe...

If you think getting concerned because someone bought a player a drink is normal behavior maybe you don't understand the purpose of recreational leagues. The biggest problems with leagues are the people who take it wayyyyy too seriously and ruin things for everyone else. Protip: everyone...

I am very sad to hear this, and my condolences go out to the family. I was down in Phoenix just a few weeks ago listening to Pete stories from Del. What a crazy life he led! His life could have easily been a book, just amazing stuff. Pete was always a gentleman, and he had personality in...

Jesus Christ the other guys bought an opponent a drink and that's cause for concern? Considering how many league players are rude, shark, and do all sorts of underhanded crap to mess with opponents it seems completely nuts to question a friendly gesture like buying someone a drink. Leagues...

Unless you are playing TAP and the LO has sold cues to the person who broke their cue down and they are friends. Tis actually happened to me once. Amazing stuff.

Gunt. Apparently that response is "too short" so I will lengthen it to "omg gunt."

Tony Drago at the Mosconi Cup a few years ago was about the worst I have seen. And it was during an Earl match of all things. The worst scummy behavior on a grand stage ever. And Tny was not even playing in the match. Absolutely terrible. He should have had two bouncers toss him out on his face...

Fast Larry is probably the most interesting poster cited, just from a "sit and laugh at the train wreck" point of view. The guy is completely delusional and insane. He makes up stories about his longtime "pool career" but nobody featured in his stories has ever heard of him, he has no records...

Force = mass x acceleration. This simple formula confuses some people because they assume there is a large acceleration difference between a light, say 19oz cue and a heavy 25oz cue. There isn't. Your arm and shoulder are hardly slowed by a 6oz difference (thats the weight of an infant's juice...
