Do you need a site map?
There's a special forum for systems that can't be explained. I think it's called the Hogwarts Forum or something like that. Please "discuss" TOI there.

I think "I" created the thread...NOT YOU!
If you don't like "MY" thread, you know where you can go. And maybe Mr. Wilson does, too.
I posted the thread to let people see a good pool match. Not to have you come in here and try to stir up something like you seem to have a penchant to do in every thread, of every forum, of every pool site on the internet.
For someone who has been banned so many times, you seem to never learn.

I like that part of "your" thread. It's the part where you drop in ads for a controversial "system" (second only to CTE in flame wars) that I question. Did its controversy just slip your mind - or are you baiting?

Please let Mr. Wilson worry about policing the board. I've never been in a flame war with anyone. It seems that you, Lou, and a couple others have a monopoly on that.
You can go back to doing whatever you were doing and find somebody else's thread to disturb.

lol This from the guy who suggested I should be banned.
It has long since been established that discussion of systems like this are restricted to the Aiming Forum. You're using that to namedrop this one, figuring it can't be refuted here.

I don't have the time or inclination to get into your petty little arguments.
The thread was created because this was a good match to view and I have never seen it online before and was sharing it with others.
You, on the other hand, have some sort of beef with C.J. and have to chime in with something negative about him. First, was the "mullet" comment and then the meme. Why can't you control yourself? Does it always take moderators to "control" your behavior?
Aloha.
I'm out.
The Miz with that epic delayed leg kick after the break :thumbup2:
Lol no idea but its pretty funny, almost looks like a tantrum kick. Now I gotta look up some more vids.
Patrick, you are well aware that we have a rule against hijacking threads with aiming system criticism. Considering that CJ proudly espouses TOI, I think it was very relevant to this thread. Your bashing of TOI was far from relevant though.

he played a lot of stun draw shots in that match that in its self stops contact induced throw and straightens out the object ball and kills the cue ball so you can put some pace on the ball and the cue ball kills or floats as you say

Notice that CJ is breaking with his playing cue, too.
No fancy break cue.
Him and I played for a couple hours a few months ago here in Hawaii and he still hits them pretty good.
They held a mini-tournament while he was here and the final was between him and Rodney Morris and CJ won.

Winner breaks always is more exciting to me. I like to see when people get on a roll and run some packages.
You shouldn't have to give up the table until you miss. The end of a game shouldn't end your turn at the table if you made the game ball.
I have never heard anybody I've played ask for alternate breaks unless they didn't break as well as I did. I have never advocated alternate breaks when my opponent was breaking better than me.
That was an incredible match. Inspiring play by both players.
They played a different game in the BS (“Before Simonis”) era. What many of us are used to nowadays is not the action displayed in this epic matchup.
I can’t help but wonder what direction pool would have taken if they would had stayed with big pockets and slower cloth, instead of evolving towards today’s tighter pockets and quicker cloth.
I’m not sure if what we have now is better, but it is the reality that we have chosen.

Today's pool is worse than it was back then. Pool has been "dumbed down".
In this match, you didn't see either player playing a lot of safes every other shot. You didn't see jump cues. CJ didn't even use another cue to break with...he broke with his playing cue.
The rails and cloth are way too fast today. It is more like bunting the balls around the table than stroking them. I prefer playing on the slower cloth and rails so that I can "hit" the balls. I don't like having to baby them.
The table I play on during my once a week sessions has cloth that is a bit slower than the Simonis 860 and it suits me better.
I also am not a fan of one-foul BIH rules...that has ruined the game of 9-ball, IMHO. Before one-foul BIH, they played two-shot push out, which made for a much better game. There was more excitement because people would "go for" more difficult shots because they weren't scared of making a mistake and getting penalized by the single foul rules.
If you ask any old-school player...CJ, Earl, Keith, etc...they will all say that the way pool was played years ago was better than it is today.
Yeah, I was a little quick on the trigger, and it’s a good thread. Apologies to Hawaiian Eye.
