Edgie Ive had the pleasure of knowing Edgie for about 3 years now. I am a US contractor in Afghanistan but my wife is Filipino and we have a house in Marilao, Bulacan where I first met Edgie. I would back him against a lot of the players in the Philippines and everywhere we went everyone knew...

I've been looking for a cue that has a 31" butt for some time now and can't seem to find one. Not really looking to wait a few months to have one made so I figured I would see what I can find here. Thanks in advance.

Hey Joey I worked in Kuwait for 8 years and have seen all the top players on the Kuwait Billiards team. Let me tell you that they can hold there own. The only problem is the only competition they have is each other. If they had the chance to play a much larger pool of good players then they...

Same specs How about that. Im also looking for a 31" butt and wondering what is out there.

World Cup Of Pool Ask Mike about the world cup of pool in the PI. Did he match up any and would he be interested doing the same thing as Shane and spend a lot of time over there. Also ask them both which filipino scares them the most in a long race of 10 ball for big money.

Ko beat Reyes cant remember the score but wasnt close. Django beat Ko 9-7.

Im sittin in my office and just watched Chris Cornell do an awesome "I will always love you" on youtube. Unreal!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgFAq9Q8l8U&feature=g-all-u&context=G29f2a24FAAAAAAAACAA

That is exactly my point. Everyone has a different limit on how good they can become. If you took 10 regular people and taught each one exactly the same with the same equipment and the same practice time it would look like this: 2 would be sub par and clearly below everyone else. 6 would be...

So you are saying that the high school kid who wants to be a linebacker in the NFL just needs to eat more protein and hell get bigger and stronger? You mean it has nothing to do with the fact that the Genes that his parents gave him only allow him to be 5' 6" and 130lbs? Genes have more to do...

I do agree with the OP that you either have it or dont. I also stated earlier in this thread that TALENT alone will not get you anywhere. WORK ETHIC alone will not get you anywhere. TALENT with WORK ETHIC will get you to the top. Earlier in the thread you were saying that talent meant...

I think thats the million dollar question. People in your corner say it comes from hard work and desire. I am of the opinion that it is something you naturally have or you dont. Listen I wish life was more fair and that I was born with the gift of singing. I would be a lot richer...

You say SKILL and I say TALENT. Heres an interesting read: http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-procrastination-equation/201110/hard-work-beats-talent-only-if-talent-doesn-t-work-hard

Being broke and hungry is a great motivator to have desire. Do you truly believe that everyone on the planet could be doctors, astornauts, or lawyers and the only thing they have to do is try hard? And if they fail at being any of those things, it is because...

I think by bringing up China and the Philippines actually proves my point. I have been to the Philippines about 7 times and I am married to a Filipina. Some people know about the tier system that they use there. I cant speak for China but in the Philippines they realize that playing billiards...

Maybe we are in agreement but are just using a different word to describe the same thing. You say Ability and I say Talent. Whichever word you use, it defines something that some people have and most people dont. Do you truly believe that everyone on the planet could be doctors, astornauts...

Based on that theory JB then every kid that had a baseball bat or a golf club in there hand since they were little would be professional athletes just like Tiger. Do you think that Tigers parents or the Williams sisters parents are the only ones in the world that try to groom there kids into...

Talent

Same problem Same problem here. Someone else started a thread about the same thing. Means that it must be on there end. Hope its resolved soon.

Joes playing ability Cleary might be off with the 80% guess, but not by much. From the way he sets up and gets down on the ball, to his stroke, you can tell he knows what he is doing. If he had enough spare time to actually focus on pool for an extended amount of time, I could bet that he...
