drugs and pool players

[scottycoyote]

anybody ever play better on less sleep? sort of the opposite effect, so tired that your mind shuts down but your body just takes over and runs ball after ball.

the time i ran a 5pack i did it on a day after getting no sleep the night before. I was out of it and went to the poolroom, figuring id play like crap, and i just couldnt miss, didnt even think about position, just shot and shot and next thing i knew i "woke up" on my 6th rack, shortly after that i blew a shot and it was over lol

Drugs ultimately destroy you...period. Ever heard of Earl "Goat" Manigault? The guy could take four quarters off the top of a basketball backboard. He had a vertical jump of 52 INCHES. He wound up on heroin.

Here is a link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Manigault

So any short term concentration will definately send you down the pipes later on.
