This is not a good year for statues. I hope Phila leaves Rocky alone.

Well, at least---and this is a 'for sure' thing---at least 1-P players cannot be accused of being racists....Get it, race-ists...race?....fast?....

Tom Wirth is incredible. I pulled a Wirth move on a guy a last weekend, played an aggressive 2-railer and punched the rack, rolling several balls toward my hole. The 2-railer hit the pocket and I ran 8 more. I was spotting the guy 9-6. He said, "What was that?" Lol

Great feeling. Nice going.

One Pocket is only slow for those who cannot absorb the unique subtleties of the game..Like maybe mountain gorillas, or 9ball players!..The average homing pigeon will catch on pretty quick! :p :p :p

Apparently, the 1-P players forgot to set their clocks back, Sunday, therefore the pool tournament will start in one hour.

Not being a 1P player, I'm not sure why these jokes just jumped into my mind yesterday. But here they are... Please add any of yours.

One Pocket is so slow....

...One time, I air-barreled $500 on a 1P game...

...I lost but could cover the bet because by then my Social Security had kicked-in!

I don’t play one pocket because I have to use my brain...

The only people who don't think 1P is slow are slow themselves.
It is possible to understand the game and still find it to be slow. I've watched great players like Crane and Matthews play marathons with almost every ball being lagged up table at some point during the game. That is boring to people who have shit to do.
Why anyone would rent a table by the hour to play that game is the real mystery.
