    WPA Rules Question

    I've even seen referees pick up the Cue Ball before it comes to rest, when a Player fails to hit the lowest ball first. It didn't seem as if the Cue Ball would have come in contact with another ball, but why not just wait a second or two longer before all the balls come to rest? Especially when...

    Best display of cueing you've ever seen

    I saw Miami run out Three straight times playing One-Pocket, for Big Dollars, One-Handed! I saw Bugs run 5 straight Racks in One-Pocket giving up the Nuts! Like Three and Four “Hit and the Pick” for much cash!

    1990 US Open Sigel & Varner - 5 Inch Pockets

    Especially, from everywhere else in the world, except the United States. People from all over the world, at very young ages, kick the United States’ Butt, and it doesn’t have to be a big country.

    Why are there so few black pro players..?

    The question asked about the disproportionate number of Blacks in the Pool game, but I get accused of making it a race issue, and being a Race-baiter. However, just for reference, in 1966 when Cisero was first allowed to play, the Color line had just been broken in College Football, with Sam the...

    Why are there so few black pro players..?

    I didn’t ignore anything, and I have an understanding of everything that I said, and it was respectfully thought out, before I even made any statements. I was called names, racist, derogatory ones, and I know that you can’t find any comments where I called someone a slur or insulted them...

    Telling the truth is not Ripping into people. You need facts and truth in any meaningful conversation. It’s not my responsibility to Sugarcoat the truth, and I didn’t lie on anybody. I love Pool as much as anyone else, and I admired, followed, worshipped, and looked up to the same players that...

    Why are there so few black pro players..?

    Mysteriously to you, Black players grew up idolizing Mosconi, Hoppe, Greenleaf, Buddy, Siegel, Strickland, and others, like Bugs, Rags, Strawberry, and more, but we didn’t say, he’s the “White Champion’, we worshipped and idolized the same players as anyone else. We just understood that if we...

    You, calling the Award winning NPR as being a Zoo, says everything about you. You have something against NPR, evidently they are too liberal for you, but you do realize that NPR is among the most popular radio programs in the country, with a network of more than 1,000 public radio stations, and...

    I’m not an Animal, Asshole. It’s obvious that you are uncomfortable discussing matters of Race, but keep your ignorant, racist, regencies, to your Damn self, Neanderthal Knuckle-dragger. I don’t need your permission to give my opinion, I spoke about the subject at hand, giving my opinions, but I...

    Why are there so few black pro players..?

    Not because you say so, you can go in the trash with it. Your views aren’t more important than anyone else’s, but facts are true, and Pool has a past that definitely looked at Color and Race. They called it “The Filipino Invasion” when Patrica and Efren came to America, and changed the game...

    Why are there so few black pro players..?

    You did ask how many Black players are playing today. You seem to want to ignore the history of the game. You assumed that the players would be playing, if they were capable of playing, as if no other barriers existed except the will to learn, play, Win, and get Paid.

    There is no discrimination or racism, the World is perfect, and America doesn’t need to make any changes. You actually described Golf, as if it is a welcoming Sport! Wow. Yes, Baseball has less American Black players than when Mays and Aaron played. The majority of players of color in Baseball...

    Why are there so few black pro players..?

    You may have been seeing players like you play Golf, but what you don’t seem to understand is, you had a CHOICE as to whether you wanted to pursue Golf! Are you too ignorant or blind to see the difference? You can’t be serious! Wilt Chamberlain, Reggie Jackson, and Bill Russell, couldn’t go into...

    You probably need to learn how to spell, while you’re passing racist ass comments around. Weather is referring to the temperatures and forecast, whether is the word that you were TRYING to use in your sentence! You want to conveniently ignore racism, but you don’t know the difference between...

    What held Cisero Murphy back, after winning a Straight Pool tournament at 16 years old, and winning the New York Straight Pool Championship six straight times, Genius? Did he hold himself back, or did the system hold him back?? Did the White players protest on Cisero Murphy’s behalf, you Racist...

    Why are there so few black pro players..?

    Your ignorance, and America’s ignorance and Bigotry is incredible. Race is a Social, Cultural, and Psychological, construct, it has nothing to do with Intellect, Learning ability, or talent. It predicts ability to absorb the Rays of the Sun, and the resistance to catching Sickle Cell Amenia...

    The only sports that younger Black athletes and Competitors have as a Inspiration goal, major sports-wise, is Baseball (fading attempts to attract African Americans across the country), Football, and Basketball, sports that they can see someone who looks like them. Racing, Golf, Hockey, and...
