I like Billy Incardona and Grady Matthews. Love it when they're on the old Accu-Stats videos. I also like JJ, but he should do us all a favor and forget the phrase "don't get me wrong."

Thanks to all who responded. I was pretty sure they were not Brunswick balls, But I hated to think I might have missed out on a rare Centennial variant if they were. 👍

I was at a pawn shop this morning and spied a set of balls in a Brunswick Centennials box. The numbering looked like Centennials, but the solid balls and the stripe on the numbered balls had a marbleized effect. Did Brunswick make a set like this? Sorry, I forgot to get a picture. Will get some...

I've got a Cynergy 15k on a Joss 44 butt. Like it just fine.

Despite all of the "expert" opinions to the contrary above, I would also be interested in what the pros are using. Not because I'm going to run out and try to "buy" a better game, but just because I find it interesting. I'm 73 years old, a league player and not likely to run out and buy any more...

It's a beautiful table. I used to have one just like it. It turned out to be a little big for my space so I downsized to a 7' Diamond. A word of advice -- the pockets on this model are nailed in with tacks. Carefully check the pockets for any tacks that may be standing proud of the leather. When...

Advise vs. advice. You can advise someone, or you can give them advice, but you cannot give them "advise."

I see what you did.

Does it have a name or designation yet?

The member list is in alphabetic order (as sorted by a computer.) The problem is that there are 43 pages of member names that begin with non-alphabetic characters. I.e., numbers or punctuation marks. In addition, sorted numbers don't sort by numeric value either, they sort as alphabetic characters.

I very much like it. Would like to see ribbons from Vietnam service.

Are you talking about Jimmy's Pro Billiards in Columbia Heights, MN? (Minneapolis to out of towners.) More info please.

Have you ever noticed that in almost every TV show that shows somebody playing pool in a bar the table has red cloth? What are they thinking?

If you're using an Apple iPhone there's an app called Score 14.1. I don't play 14.1 (7' table) so I can't tell you much about it.

If you have a bunch of low quality house cues, I'd go ahead and try it on one of them to see how it turns out. It can't be any worse than playing with no tip at all.

+1 on the Milk Duds. I'm still on my original Milk Dud medium tips after 4 years they still play great. Probably a hard now though.

A tip of the hat to you sir for correctly using the word "advice" in your original post instead of "advise". So many seem to think the two spellings are interchangeable. You've made an old grammar Nazi happy!

I cobbled up my own chalk holder by combining a pocket chalk holder with a retractable key holder. Just fasten it to my belt, pull it out when I need to use it and let it go when I'm done. Works great. Been using it in my league for a couple of years.

Merry Christmas to all AZBers!
