    8-ball, 9-ball, or 10-ball on 7&8 ft tables?

    8 Ball, and every once in a while 9 Ball. I think most people that pay a dollar a game want to play with all 15 balls and get the most out of the dollar.

    Toys 4 Tots Tournament Help

    I had a friend ask me to help put on a T4T tournament in Dec. The idea is using APA handicaps( only because its the biggest around this part) and do 3 brackets or 2-3, 4-5, and 6-7. Top 4 or 6 depending on number of players get a small payout, with most being donated to T4T. I have a few...

    Your Local APA League

    I was just pointing out that the lo is saying they don't offer all the different patches or offer pins at all due to cost associated with them. Maybe i'm totally off base but I cant see the patches costing more than 1-2 dollars per/ unit and I assume they can be bought in bulk for less. As of...

    Your Local APA League

    My thing is our weekly team fees are $30 for 8ball or 9ball, 48 for double jeopardy. Most of the bars pay some percent of the fees, even a few pay all. On all the teams I have played on the most the players payed was 2 per game, the bar payed the rest of the fees. The few players that have...

    Mass. Legislature approves plan to bypass Electoral College

    That's exactly what you have now with the highly populated Northeast and West Coast. As long as they both lean the same way 2/3 of the countries votes will not matter.

    I'd just like to say concerning the APA

    Sure there is sandbaggin in every league. If everyone in APA wants to see a lot of it go away then every team in the league needs to start scoring properly. If the safeties are properly marked week in and week out all of these super 3's who play like 5's and 6's will quickly be raised. The...
