Over the years there has been some real doozies but my memory doesn't allow me to remember them well. By the way, does anyone know the origin of "doozie", as in, that's a real doozie"?
It is a reference to the over-the-top and very extravagent automobile, the Deusenburg (sp). Now, where were we? Oh yeah, commentary. :smile:
Just the other day, while listening to the Big Truck stream, I heard a few funny ones from a guest commentator sitting in with Ray. If I'm not mistaken, his name was "Smitty" and he won the 1P tourney there at Levittown.
It was either Mike Deschaine's or Ginky's break that he was referring to, in his heavily New York accented voice, when he said, "If he keeps breaking like that then he'll dictate like Castro". lol!
Another of his 'gems' was in referring to an upcoming shot that needed some cue ball spin to get shape, he said; "he's gonna twirl the pearl". Funny. I'm not sure how many matches I could stay with him for since these kinds of references were coming fairly non-stop, nevertheless, it was worth listening to get the two above... :grin:
I also believe it was him again later that when a match went hill-hill, he referred to it as going "double cheeseburgers".
So, what do you all remember as some noteworthy (funny, strange, whatever) comments made during pool matches?
