    >90 degree rail spin shots (SloMo)

    Stolen cue!!! Barry Stewart has my cue.

    seems a bit out of order to shout "stolen cue" because you shipped it the wrong address. Did he tell you that he wouldn't return it? what indicates to you he plans on keeping it. just the fact he hasn't called you back yet? just seems premature to throw that out there. if a cue mysteriously...

    Common Question - Jump Cues or No Jump Cues?

    Every time this thread comes up i give the same answer. JUMPING = OK JUMP CUE = NOT OK I don't like jump cues. They make what should be a very difficult shot to pull off way too easy. its not golf, you shouldnt need a different cue/club for every shot. imagine the same thing if you were out...

    A thought on growing up pre camera phone FB and twitter. and some random musings

    Yeah, i wasnt thinking about how social media can kill action or at least keep someone from remaining anonymous but people have been using it to bark and drum up action too, or at least stir up some drama. But i see where your comin from. I was really just struck by the fact i couldnt find...

    Mosconi Cup

    i just went to espn and searched 'mosconi' linked right to the stream easy peasy. and i gotta say, other than the video freezing 1 time, the stream quality was superb. sound level of the announcers was just right, and since the resolution looked so high i hooked my 55 inch with an hdmi...

    A thought on growing up pre camera phone FB and twitter. and some random musings

    I was just sending someone a PM about a place that's closed, where i spent a good portion of my teen years through my mid twenties, and thought I'd do a simple Google image search for a shot of The Ballroom inc in Toms river NJ. nothing. I realized thank God my generation wasn't at the point...

    a blurry one pocket rule that cost me money.

    the only way one pocket played was played the cash that ive seen is: Everything is a foul. That way the the argument ends up being whether or not some one touched another ball. "Foul! You moved the 6 off the rail with your sleeve!" -"No I didnt. NO WAY!" etc.

    What do you think about this pocket?

    thats the newest thing in table technology -the parabolic pocket facing- that looks sad. it looks like as mentioned above already, the pockets wayyyy deep, the angle isnt right, and the facing has some kind of curve to it. it actually looks a little lumpy to me, but that could just be the pic.

    Non forfeit at White Diamonds - Whats up with that!!!

    i still think you have to do it that way. if it happens a coupla times and and the calcutta buyer that gets screwed appropriately handles the player that screwed him, then it will stop being a problem. do it any other way and a player can decide just not to show and not have to worry about it...

    Non forfeit at White Diamonds - Whats up with that!!!

    i skimmed through this and see some people saying the calcutta money should back to the buyer? it cant. every bid on other players after this bid is based on how much total was in the calcutta. if the guy in the calcutta before me goes off for 4 g's i am more like likely to pay more for...
