It’s great when you own something, you can call it whatever you want. The 4th country was China. I don’t believe that ever really got off the ground the way they’d hoped. No one has mentioned it in a while, I don’t know if it’s still something they’re trying to work out or if it’s a dead issue.

I’m pretty sure there’s a YouTube of Earl playing pyramid at an event in Russia

Just be sure to look it over, if it was a foul say it was, but if it wasn't don't be so quick to give in. I know that if it's just a league night sometimes it's easier to avoid the confrontation of good hit / bad hit, but there also times that if you're the captain you set an example, make a...

Wish I had your confidence. I hope you're right

The push out can be a pretty strategic play. You can teach the concept of a push, what it's for, why it might be a good tool to have, but it's alot like the kick shot you mention - it still has to be executed. You can give the best advice to a lower level player, or tell them exactly how to...

Laying down? You guys? Never...... Perhaps a little preoccupied, but that's to be expected

I think that when we lose a contemporary, even if it's not someone that we were especially close to, we feel that loss. I believe that some of us feel it when we lose a member of this community, or maybe someone that played at the same room, even someone that you may have had very pronounced...

Would it be correct to figure in who owns them and if that adds to the value, or "for insurance purposes" would you just be figuring the cost of a new cue (if available) from that company? I have some sports memorabilia, as I'm sure we all do, replacement cost for a few baseballs was about...

You were a 5 for quite a while, maybe you have a 38 ball limit?

Our LO presents us with a cash prize that should cover flight and room (doubling up) for which ever event we qualify in, and we sign an agreement that if we don't make the trip and participate at the event we will return the money. It's all in how you use it.

Make use of the food place in the sports book, it's still on the pricey side, but better than the Edge, Benihanna or the other places. Unless it's changed, the practice tables (all Valleys at this event) are located in the casino going back toward the sports book, first one there gets the...

Probably right, then it’s settled - no real pool halls for anyone that’s not a regular visitor to NPR

It would draw people to this website and they would inevitably come upon NPR and probably never pick up a cue stick again

Hand carved? Maybe that just sounds like a lot to take on. I had a case I wanted, it had even been done before but I wanted mine in leather. What I found from custom case makers was that they work from patterns and something truly custom would have to be done by a different type of industry...

If you put together and do the customary roll some may appear to be straight. That’s enough for most people, however, if you get down and examine all sides and views when you roll you will find a slight (or not so slight) wobble or lift, some kind of imperfection. You just need to determine...

I had one that I used for a little while. I know I didn’t give it away or sell it, but I don’t know what ever happened to it. I got to thinking after I read this thread. There’s a bunch of Limbsavers on Amazon though none of them are made for a pool cue, but the look like they could be easily...

It does sound ridiculous but oh, so true. It's one of those things that I'm really afraid to actually talk about for fear of it being real.This past weekend we were talking about if we could go back to our teen years again before lower back pain, mortgage, and bills. Back to when the wood was...

It’s been tried several times before. I think one time it got as far as being named a demonstration sport, but the committee that picks the demonstration sports decided to go with Pickle Ball instead (no kidding). It would be great if it was successful. I seem to recall that one big hurdle it...

I bet the Officers Club for The Space Force has a 9 ft Diamond, so of course there's pool in outer space

You guys get a jacket?
