    Shoot a Million Balls? Give me a break.

    Mosconi would probably be a better candidate. Maybe Babe Cranfield since he apparently practiced all the time and lived to the age of 89.

    Shoot a Million Balls? Give me a break.

    I've often wondered how many balls Efren has hit in his lifetime, and whether it's more than any other human being has ever hit. If not, I wonder who did hit the most balls in their lifetime and what that number is.

    Proficient Billiards Cue Repair?

    I have a fancy Paul Mottey cue that has a couple of small dings in the butt. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with Proficient Billiards cue repair, and whether they would recommend them?

    Did Brett Gordon break Eddies thumbs?

    My favorite line in The Hustler has always been when Fats tells Eddie to shoot pool, and Eddie says, "I'm shootin' pool Fats. When I miss you can shoot."
