Dang......... no words but, dang.
Edit: on the other side of the coin, I can remember when I went to state finals about 5-6 years ago. Up in Columbus, GA {wasn't APA}.
The two teams in the finals of the team event played very well. They were so evenly matched, that every player had to play...
People that wanted to do something fun, but didn't want to lose all the time at it.
:idea2:
Edit: Personally, I don't like handicapping in tournaments, and there may be a few leagues out there that just put people's skill against other people's skill.
It's weird that lots of other leagues don't have the exact same issue.
Sure, there's bagging going on in every league across the nation.
But they're not low-key promoting it, like some leagues are. Whether intentional or not.
Oh you gotta get Facebook to watch this thing! You should see the finals :killingme::killingme:
You should definitely see the condition of that table they're playing on! Pure Valley/Dynamo mastery at it's finest.
:speechless::rotflmao1:
Ref needs to get a damn ladder if anyone needs the hit...
Yes I can get on board with that. When something like this happens (it's beyond "if") - The LO is in serious hot water.
The LO will then in turn talk to their region players about it (I've seen it) and you'll start to see great players from teams; anchor players... leave the APA.
Why?
Not...
You're like, the only one that refuses to see that the APA clearly is rife with sand-baggers, lay-downers and handicap manipulators.
There's screenshots above your post, that clearly indicate that lots of people don't like it (including myself) and are aware that it's happening with MANY...
I'm sort of the same, I don't wear "I play pool stuff"
The hat really is it, and that's because no one reads your hat when you're in the room I'm in. Everybody wears hats, and if you've read my hat, I'm already in action.
Maybe it's just the way things are. It wasn't too long ago that Woodward was on the Big Truck streams in flip flops and cargo shorts - going for $2,000 in the calcutta.
Represent wear you come from. If you want to wear golf shirts to the pool room I'm not going to knock any of that.
I'll be...
Yeah, you're probably right about that; It ain't for me.
A little back story, I played APA for years. With friends, and sometimes just joined a team and made even more friends. In the end, I saw my own game going drastically down. I could have used that $10 for more table time. Instead, I tried...
If you're implying my mind can't be changed, you're absolutely wrong.
If you're implying that I'm not wrong that the APA championships in Vegas won't be oozing with sandbaggers next year, well you already know the answer to that question, I would gather.
Can my mind be changed about what I...
Yep, there's a way to manipulate that system, too. According to your LO, he probably doesn't make that much money, either.....:thumbup:
Good faith according to who, the opponent?
All those APA players buying cues and cases, chalk and equipment are in a different part of the market.
If the...
