    Wrong Ball

    I think Shane did him a favor. Tate will NEVER do that again. If Shane had politely told him wrong ball it might not have sunk in so well.

    Backhand Aiming

    I have found that as well. Not exactly but close. I think getting the cue in proper alignment and then letting your mind/subconscious fine tune it gets me much closer than aiming at a ghost ball center while standing and trying to keep that point when I get down.

    Dr. Dave on vacation in exotic place❓

    When I play it, it looks more like scraggy and scoobie running from the guy wearing a sheet.

    We thought Tag was bad for ESPN

    1) When I was in my prime (6 years old) he didn't stand a chance. :) 2) Those rocks worked their way to shore for millions of years only to be cast back out into the water. How cruel!

    Best Black Players Of All Time

    "Go Away Kid" was Jesse. He passed away I think about 10 years ago. I posted about it at the time. I was hanging out with him and sweating him in action the night before he died.

    Interesting FB post about FargoRate

    For me it was when we had to mark the pocket and I was playing the LO and he said "Let's not do any of that mark the pocket BS we'll just call it." So we play the match without marking the pocket and I'm shooting the 8-ball to win the match. I call it and make it. YOU DIDN'T MARK THE POCKET...

    Interesting FB post about FargoRate

    I think what you are stuck on is the matches vs games. FR doesn’t care about matches. Winning 5 games against 5 different opponents with an average rating of 500 counts the same as beating a 500 5-0. Edit: if you are playing a race where you have to win 9 and your opponent has to win 3 - and...

    Old Schons

    I had played with Meucci, Mali, McDermott - then when I got a ‘real’ job I went to Showcase billoards and test hit every cue in the place. I was there for several hours and the absolute best hit was a new Schon R9. It was a beautiful cue as well but I didn’t care at all about that at the time...

    Pool Announcers; What do you want?

    I am one who likes commentary. I will keep it on even if it's bad. This is aimed more at new commentators. Here are some things I like and don't like: 1) Tell us who you are several times. I want to know who is talking and many times it isn't listed in the description. Obviously if it's a...
