I think the Cuetec Avid Surge jump cue is pretty good.

Communists tend to develop talent better. But with selection and redistributed money going to the state youth sports committee or whatever. No cap tournaments sort of model communism when there is social pressure for the non elite to donate to the elite. Granted, it is based on skill, but you...

No, I think the caps are ok for some events. Not all. And I agree that it doesn’t make sense to have the cut off the same all the time. It is ok to have different events, open, handicapped, cut offs, etc…. They don’t all have to be the US Open. Get players at all levels competing and vested in...

I don’t know but am over 99.99% sure Jay Helfert will know.

Might get to Des Moines next summer. We’ll see. That place looks great.

Lockouts/strikes. Back to Filler. This is where I would blow a gasket as a player who boycotted the WPA event over the WPA bans. After Filler made the statement with other WNT players … to then go play in it…. Like I said earlier I would not want him in the Reyes or Mosconi Cups. Players do...

It’s a weird balance. Sometimes players need a say. Sometimes a powerful dictator/commissioner/league is needed. Baseball needed a strong commissioner after the Black Sox scandal. Football having a strong league and commissioners - Rozelle especially- guided a merged league into the TV era...

The PGA Tour took some time to develop into what it is. Right now it might evolve into something else. I don’t know all the details, but it took some strong and successful players to get control of the PGA Tour from the PGA of America. Nicklaus and Palmer had a lot to do with it I think. The...

I tend to think Tony is the favorite. But Bergman is very tough. Switching to a Meucci should add half a ball to his game too. 😜😜😜.

Think of all the kids who became doctors because “ more doctors smoke Camels than any other cigarette”. 😜

I think another difference is the team event. Others on the team didn’t go play after saying they wouldn’t, right? How could those players tolerate him as a teammate? Maybe that’s not the issue, but if I were on the team and took some risk by boycotting the WPA event, I would not want him on...

So Matchroom doesn’t have the right to decide who plays in a Matchroom event?

Yeah I do too. I bought some stuff from them back in the day. Never bought a custom sneaky. A friend had one and it hit good. Wish I pried loose of the 190 or 200 or whatever they went for.

Did they supply blanks to Scruggs? I would expect the Scruggs to have a little better shaft and fit/finish. Enough to make a difference in play or justify the price difference......??? I recently picked up a Huebler sneaky for $50. Shameless brag.

I saw that meme recently that ranked Southern insults. I don’t think it was earlier in this thread. Hope not. But it said “ You ain’t from around here are you?” Was even worse than “Bless your heart.” 😇

Was playing poker in Las Vegas at a locals type room. One old guy at my table had his scooter parked by the desk. A younger guy, maybe ‘50’s, hijacked the scooter and was riding around the room. Proclaimed he was practicing getting old. 😛

How about Matchroom puts up a bunch of money and puts on the Matchroom King of the Banned Championship. Winner gets a big pile of money and a huge trophy celebrating being banned. Minimum payment is all expenses paid and the 500 euro fine if the banned player wants to pay it over he has 500...

I am old enough to remember some of this era in Las Vegas. But I was a kid and didn’t have the bankroll or inclination to bet sports. Probably good since if I had the inclination I probably wouldn’t have a bankroll. But I was fascinated by Little Caesar’s on the south end of the strip. I could...

If the seller ends up needing a copy I’d sell him mine for 2,995.00.

When I clicked on the link Amazon had a record of when I puchased it from them. I saved 4,965.05 by buying it then. What a deal.
