Challenge of the sexes Well for what it's worth I'd like to see the pool equivalent of Bobby Fisher/ Billie Jean King. Pick any of the top women and let them challenge the top man of their choice. You would have a lot of folks willing to pay for a sexist face off......:thumbup:

Good post Manwon. Narrow minded, homophobic, cretins are ever present both here and elsewhere on forums. Damn shame folks can't see things as my mom taught me......"There, but for the grace of God.....Go I."

I like this idea. I fit the description to a tee. Time is a factor for me as is the quality of competition. I would be tickled to death if I could " pick and choose" which matches to watch in a particular tourney......Dan

E-mail sent.......will support Pepsi with my wallet.

As I understand it, any neck of the woods is just fine with Randy. I believe he is on the go continually, and will eventually make it to your part of the country. Hell if he was willing to come to "Murder City" (Memphis) to teach the likes of myself and LoRider, I reckon he will go...

Maybe Dixie is Different. We have a few " Halls" here in Memphis, and about as many bars as churches. I can honestly say that the majority of players I see and interact with in both places are far from skinflints. Perhaps it is the "Southern Hospitality" and "Southern Gentleman" tradition...

SPF.....The " Real Deal" I echo all you have said about the SPF system and the instruction. I had the honor of receiving instruction from Randy G. and just like you described Scott, he was a teacher that cared. I was so impressed I have begun making plans to attend the 3 day school in...

Just learned today that the honored country for 2012 Memphis in May world championship BBQ contest is the PI. I hope some of the local room owners can persuade Efren and his fellow players to make the trip and visit/play in a few rooms here.....what a treat for us if it happens....Dan

Hey Bonni....and a belated Happy B day to ya. I also remember your first post here.....think I even commented on it. I enjoy your periodic updates and your continued enthusiasm for the game. Ignore the naysayers, pundits, and assorted a$$ holes and keep it rollin.....Dan

I do not currently play on a league, but when I did I was not influenced by open or closed tables. I like to have dinner at my pool establishment but I'm not overly fond of Pub Grub....you know....the deep fried everything or pre pattied burgers. I like a house speciality, no matter if it's BBQ...

How bout this instead??? If I were going to a gathering of pools elite, I think I'd bring a 2 ft. square of table felt. after signings you could frame it to hang in your man cave.......just a thought.....Dan

#1. You got stiffed for .50.....5 - 2 = 3 2 + .5 = 2.50....deficit .50 #2. You actually tipped her 50% .50 you gave her + .50 she kept up front. #3. The most likely reason you missed the .50 was because you were staring at her breasts, which would also account for the disgusted look...

A nit is also the egg of a lice/louse.....a juvenile parasite.....which is probably a more apropos definition when used as I have seen it on this forum.....:thumbup:

First i'd like to say "glad your mending" and while I'm not a wildlife officer and have no specific knowledge of laws regarding endangered species skins, I think you may be inviting a lot of hassle even if you are completely legal. Some overly dilligent game warden or activist PETA member may...

I do not think pool is dying. I see people playing in every place that has a table. The money is there for the elite few that have supernatural ability. Like the old west gunslinger with a rep for being the fastest.....someone will always challenge those at the top. For the average Joe, you're...

let's play double or nothing. Again, his money so okay. Now I'm up $200, do it again and I'm up $400. He pays me and asks me where I'm from and I tell him I live locally. He asks me if I play in Maybe I'm wrong but my understanding of "Double or nothing" is this....he owes you 200$....you play...

An unusual but interesting cookie cutter???

Not sure you can call it handicapping, but I play in a local tourny where you get 5 points for winning the game and 1 point for each ball your opponent has remaining on the table. usually this allows the better players to win, but it has also had it's fair share of lesser ability players to...

Probably won't ammount to much......but IIRC, a company that makes knives, S. O. G. I think, patented and copyrighted the name "Gator Grip" for a synthetic rubber non slip grip on their knives. .......Dan
