Wait, $1000/game isn't high stakes??? sudo <-- doesn't gamble :oops:

100%. There's a difference between being deliberate and being deliberately slow. I altered my PSR to be a bit more deliberate to the CB and played a couple games under a shot clock because it felt slow. Never even needed my extension in the 5-6 racks I played. I think a lot of players look like...

So we should invest more in it. USPS is the ONLY delivery service in many parts of the country, so damaging it hurts a lot of people (especially in rural areas). The quality of service does seem to depend on where you are located and how you're using it: for me it's fantastic and I prefer to...

I felt the same about the 2 exhibition matches this week. Sure in odd circumstances the old guard may know what to do, but the raw pocketing ability and CB control of current world class players is on another level. Leave any sort of opening and they're out...

It's called the Postal *Service* for a reason. It serves the country and is not intended to turn a profit (which no government service should). USPS cost $10B in 2024 of a total Federal spend of $6.75T. That's .0015%. If you're looking to save Federal $$$, check the couch cushions first.

We tried to get a tap in the Union at NDSU, but that took all of 10 seconds to be shot down. Y'all may not believe it, but NDSU is a dry campus...

Someone has it registered, but there's no site or other DNS entries there. Squatters... :LOL:

That blows. I spent loads of time at the Memorial Union at NDSU (my grades reflected that...). We had 9 GCs, 2 ping-pong tables, a shuffleboard table, and an 8-lane bowling alley. Mike Montgomery (RIP), a dear friend and the manager of that area put so much work into that place being excellent...

What's kind of funny is I've fully rotated out an "actual" break cue... - Bought a BK Rush to replace a Players J/B that cracked. - Didn't really like the BK sport-grip butt so moved the shaft to a Roadline I couldn't get the balance right to play with. - Just put a 30" Revo 12.9 with a Kamui...

Hey, some of us like shiny things even if they won't directly make us better. Look good, feel good, play good (maybe...).

Yeah, migrating apps can be a real pain. Especially websites when they could be going from one platform to another with DB changes and all kinds of other variables. I live that every day and having a team of pros doesn't make it much better. You just need to fight your way thru it a bit at a time.

There was a Diamond at one of the MSP houses that i think they tried to set up for 1P. The thing had like half an inch of shims and they weren't even. Pocket facings may as well have been steel, everything rattled from up table, but would drop along the short rail... Fortunately that one was...

Noticed the site was down for a bit last week. Was mildly concerned but wasn't sure what your maintenance window was. Must have been working on the migration? Glad to see everything back up, you are an valuable resource for the game. (y)

I don't mind the list view for the first rounds, especially in the big tournaments where a bracket can get cluttered. Once they get to 64 it should be a bracket though.

This is one of the reasons I switched from the BK shaft to a 12.9 to break with. It's still got a Kamui SAI on it, but i rarely hammer my breaks and even then i can't hit it as hard as many people can (Kaci 👀). I usually find myself dialing back the power to avoid clusters or balls getting hit...

That was amazing to watch. The level of CB control and shot making abilities of these players is absolutely otherworldly. What's with the commentators constantly talking about the "tight" 4-1/8" pockets? These guys have been playing on 3.9-4" pockets non-stop for the last year...

Can say that i was really surprised to see Ralf go to the short cue that quickly. Didn't hesitate.

That was fun to watch.

After this week I'd take Dechaine. :)

Misread this (bold). You mean specifically a BA in Arts/Humanities/etc, not just BA vs BS (where there's a lot of overlap in usage). Disagree that the degree is worthless (none truly are), but many aren't worth the debt. Problem is employers demand you have the piece of paper... But that's...
