    Lawyers, we don't need no stinking laywers

    We can't place that kind of pressure on one individual. Mark can only do so much. For pool to get its shitt together, it will take a cooperative effort from everybody. Right now, we can't even get together and talk about these issues over a cup of coffee. There is so much work that needs to be...

    Red Shoes Qualifier

    I haven't watched all of the matches, but from what I saw, there was a lot of work put into making this a great event.

    running out/planning positio

    I look to see which balls can be made by having my cue ball in the center of the table. I also look to see which balls cannot be made from there - and plan accordingly.

    An oldie, but a goodie!

    For many years, Tom Kelly was the voice of the USC Trojans. He and The Miz had quite a rapport, and IMO, were perfect together in the booth.

    An oldie, but a goodie!

    No, this isn't a thread about Joey Aguzin. :) I'm sure this has probably been posted before, but look at it as a nice break from the politics and a look back at one of the great moments in our game. Efren Reyes Vs Jim Rempe - 1996 Legends of 9 Ball IMO, this is one of the most exciting and...
