Ok, so then a ref is being unsportsmanlike when he does not inform a player he is lining up on the wrong ball? And knowing what ball you are shooting at is also a skill based situation. You need to have the skill of counting, AND the skill of paying attention. The difference is that darn near...

very old schon It was maybe 15 years ago and I got a job working in a pool hall up in Chicago. I got on with the owner very well from the start. I was maybe 21 at the time. I was already very well into the game and was already obsessed well before this time. I have always loved pool and cues...

I have to say that no matter how you responded to the question, or how you may feel about this kind of thing- It is NOT really a sportsmanship issue. You are under no obligation to tell your opponent he is about to commit a foul. You may choose to, and that would be great, but not doing so is...

yes, if there was a referee I would agree 100%, but then dippy would also have to sit in silence while it was scotts turn! You can't have it both ways! Also, the ref would have called the hit bad, and it would not have been allowed to continue. Dippy would have lost at that moment. No second...

well, who seems to be acting more respectful in this video clip? Just asking. It seems like the whole argument is over a perceived lack of respect given to dippy. Based on this short clip, who was playing the game with a more respectful attitude? That is dippy's main argument, that he wants...

Yes, but I think that statement goes both directions. Dave has said enough that could be taken that way as well, so if something were to happen to scott it would be the same. This isn't a little spat. I do not think it is just going to get swept under the rug. I think dave should have...

Well, we ALL know that you didn't trust him with the last $50,000 you owed him! Wait, maybe that is it. Are you just holding on to it for safekeeping? That is nice of you! :thumbup: If you never give it to him, he never has to worry about doing anything foolish with it! That was your plan...

You do not stiff someone for $50,000 and expect nothing to happen do you? I have a very strong feeling that all this is not going to end the way you wish it would. I think you have been getting your way far too often for far too long, and you have lost touch with how things really work!

Once again, trying to change the rules to suit you. If you did manage a restraining oreder you would be banning yourself! As a defending champion he would have much more right to be there than you, so if the two of you can't be there, it is bye byye dave!. You are like one of those idiots...

Thanks for the reply. I am not going to disagree with your basic point. Obviously how a cue feels in your hand will affect your decision to buy/play with it. I personally believe that a cue's balance is a very important factor of it's feel. Assuming I am actually able to try out a cue before...

I do not think this is vague at all! I also agree 100% As has already been said, you should grip your cue so that your arm is perpendicular to the floor when the cue tip is at the cue ball. This will be determined by your wingspan and the length of your bridge. The balance of the cue will have...

Sombody said something about him getting a job, here is my suggestion!:thumbup: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_-CR8Umy6w

Okay, enough! I think we should play nice, everyone hold hands and join me in a happy sing-a WONG!

Ok here is a t shirt for ya- " There is the right way.. and the WONG way!" :thumbup: That statement could be applied to many situations. Kind of a catch all phrase.

HILARIOUS!! So slow it takes him 2 hours to watch 60 min!! :thumbup: That must be why he goes through soo much chalk and ferrules

Umm, yes you did put out an open challenge. Then ducked it! Why didn't you just say "no thanks" to bartram instead of talking about someone else who is not involved in this conversation in any way? Sorry, but your character is showing through from beginning to end. The very simple reason...

If only someone would have suggested this sooner! Then all of this could have been avoided! He would surely take such good advice to heart and give it a chance.... oh wait.... nevermind!! :grin-square:

yeah, yeah. Trying to make a joke. :thumbup: :grin:

Wow, do you have ANY other tactics? Or do you ALWAYS bark up some, then COMPLETELY change the topic at hand to TRY to save face and distract from the fact that you are in over your head? NEWSFLASH! There is not one SINGLE person on here who isn't seeing you for what you are! You are not...

One more thing... the loser MUST admit that they lost because they chalked incorrectly! ( BTW, by loser, I mean ace) To ace: Whenever you are in a disagreement with someone, and you have to COMPLETELY change the ENTIRE topic to TRY and save face, you MUST admit that you have just admitted...
