So what should Efren be (or Dennis Orcullo, or Johnny Archer, or Thorsten Hohmann, or <insert champion name here>)? :)

Did I say that? That sounds like a Dan Wallace quote. I know nothing about the San Diego pool scene, nor have I ever spent any time there. :) However, I will say that I believe that the current ratings are even less accurate than they were 10 years ago or so. I've said, over and over, why I...

There's a bit of a loophole, if you will, in that rule in that if a player refuses even a good rack, and continues to ask for a re-rack, then it puts the racking player in a position of either having to oblige or forfeit. If you're dealing with players who are the type of people who will go to...

The points list has been updated as well.

You should have made Eric a trophy for his pugilistic accomplishments as well.

You're stuck with whatever you pocket on the break? I honestly don't ever recall playing like that unless it was in a bar somewhere (not that I've played in a ton of 8-ball tournaments outside of the BCA stuff). :) I'd really like to make it out for this, but it'll be just a day after I return...

I was being sarcastic. :) Honestly, I don't really think about it much unless I'm struggling. My system, if I have one, is really just to properly align my body to the shot (that is, the line that runs from the contact point of the object ball through the back of the cue ball). The fact that...

I don't aim.

Do you guys plan on finishing Sunday night? Starting at 7, and playing those long sets, you guys could be playing well into Monday morning.

Nice win, Sarah. :)

I wanted to kick the dog once when I got home after losing a match. I didn't follow through though. Besides, the neighbors really like their dog. What? You thought I'd kick MY dog?

Everyone started out as "average Joe", so I'd have to think the better players do have an idea of how the average Joe pool player feels, having been that person themselves at one time. With that said, I guess it's possible that the better players always thought the way they do now, which is why...

That's a no-brainer in Arizona. Scott Frost.

Happy Birthday, Baldilocks! ;)

You guys are killing me.

Do you have proof? Pictures? I'll deny it 'til the end! ;)

Thanks Rick! I probably would have played safe on that 9-ball on a 9' table, but the best I could have done was to leave Mitch a long-rail bank, and the kid doesn't miss many of those on the bar table! I was on a bit of a roll at the time, so I figured I'd take a swing at it. Thanks for...

I believe that I saw a couple players using an aiming system this weekend. It was really strange. It seemed they were picking a spot on the waitresses' booty and aiming their shafts at it. I'm not sure who invented that system, but it didn't seem to be helping anyone make balls.

Anyone have results yet?

Just figured I'd clarify that his last name is "Orender" ... or you might have been joking around and it just went over my head. :)
