Begging the balls....

To encourage an object bal, I prefer, "Move, you lazy b**tch."
When whitey is headed for a pocket, a menacing "I know where you live" always works. (Okay, it almost never works.)
 
I never beg...the balls don't have ears!

I have been known to stop a cueball on the edge from scratching with the all powerful "Stare of Death!":shocked:

When a roll isn't going my way I just beg

"O come on don't let me lose like this , not like this!"

everything else I say is just way to profane to post here. :D
 
I love to chant "go eight!" whenever I have a horrid break (never my fault, always due to a bad racking job!) and the 8ball is still sitting unmoved in the center of the rack :)

Whenever whitey is looking like it's going to be hooking me I call it a "little b*tch"... Most times I think it takes offense and hooks me out of spite....

Sometimes when I scratch I'll mumble "it's like a nightmare, isn't it? it just keeps getting worse and worse...." to myself...

since the majority of my play is on Diamond barboxes I happen to scratch in the (5 gallon bucket) side pockets the most - I holler, gimme a titty! If whitey still goes in it's, damn A cups!! For making an object ball I usually give a sarcastic statement - yeah, slow down, rattle baby rattle, I wouldn't go in either, etc.... :cool:
 
hmmm

Right as I am scratching or I hook myself...I typically mutter, "That's right...you dirty *****."

If I miss a shot I typically beg, "Get in the game"...hoping that my object ball gets in the way or locks up my opponent,s ball or blocks the obvious shot.

The other one of course is..."Are you serious?" As I watch the cue ball roll into a bad spot....

Of course if I do not stroke the ball or I miss because I am worrying about a leave...I typically mutter "Make the shot dummy or stroke the ball dummy"
 
A regular at our pool hall is well known for the way he pleads with it like it's a lover who just threw his clothes on the lawn. "Oh come on honey slow down BABY where are you GOIN sweetheart?!"

While waiting for the table to settle down after a break, and nothing looks like it's gonna drop. "OK I need a volunteer. Anyone. Just one volunteer. No? No takers? (and if you're in a bad mood: "Fine, f@ck you all.")

"Ho, ho, whoa whoooooaaaah" ... like trying to settle down a bolting horse.

When something's just not gonna reach a rail/pocket: "GROW WINGS AND FLY!"

And of course the happy gilmore. "Go on, get in your hole. WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM ARE YOU TOO GOOD FOR YOUR HOLE?!"
 
my favorite is watching Willey Mosconi on ESPN waving his arms up in the air and talking to the ball

for me its outta gas again or come on baby
 
ok, only a couple of folks on here may know what I'm talking about, but the other day at the poolhall a buddy let out the perfect WHHHHYYYY?! on a shot. It sounded exactly like the clip Jim Rome uses on his radio show of Nancy Kerrigan. I followed it with Tiger's clip from the same show - Not in my swing! (said in kind of a whine) - without missing a beat.....we laughed for about 2 straight minutes. :p
 
"Come to papa." - When the pool gods unexpectedly smile on me and lady luck comes rolling my way.

"Ar-r-r-r-g-g-h-h-h!" - Universal pirate groan for when the pool gods don't smile on me.

"Get some legs." - Obvious as stated above.

"That sure was a rookie move" - Unforced tactical or strategic errors (by me).

"That one sure wiped its feet on the way in." - When I rattle a ball in the pocket, my opponent instinctively starts moving towards the table and my object ball finally falls in the pocket.

Otherwise: In general, I try to say as little as possible while I'm playing in order to help maintain my focus on the game and stop those stupid conversations that seem to always want to go on inside your head.

my favorite are BIG BOUNCE! or when someone calls TITTY!

you can say what you want but the balls never listen.

^which is my favourite thing to say when i walk past them to get back to the table.

one of my favorites is when the cue is heading for a pocket yell this " stand up and fight motherf'r" shortly after a couple f bombs are dropped i will let out a war cry if it stays up. if not, as many as 15 f bombs could be heading the cue balls direction lol.
 
Some people in our league give the cb the finger. My buddy yells out '' You got to be kidding me''. Some times he yells you ******
 
If it's getting near the end of the match, I will say things (while the other guy's balls are rolling) "Come on...Big Titties!!" Hoping for a rattler.

or

If the ball is rolling past the side pocket and nicks the titty and gives you shit position, I will yell..."god, those are the only pair of titties that I hate".

or

Get in the game ball

or

"Time to get my driver out for this shot." (When the opponent leaves me with a long shot.)

or my favorite...."The holy roller"...That last ball on the break that is coming quick around the table and you are hoping for it to drop in the corner.
 
If I'm in a good mood, I just say, "Come on, give it to me baby" and smile. It usually works. If I'm in a not so good mood, I usually say, "You better do it, you piece of s***."
 
My three favorites:
STAY STRAIGHT BITCTZ!

Oh that's what a chit sandwich tastes like

Buck and Inch Baby!

I usually dont begging the balls to drop, but when I am on double-hill I cheers for the 9-ball, by shouting; 9-ball, 9-ball, 9-ball, 9-ball!:D
