Me too. I rather watch paint try myself.
 
I really hate to watch pros play with non-pros, they seem to want to become pool instructors.

Instead of just giving some useful small hints about what to make or hit it easy/soft, they want to do everything but hold the cue for them.

I'm sure some of the clebs just want to say, "Just get away from me and let me shoot the shot". :)
 
Can't tell for sure but It appears as though Cuetec has supplied the cues.:D
 
I thought it was hilarious

The Black Widow may have to change her name to Lil' Miss Drill Instructor. I only watched a few minutes of the show but she was laying down what to do to Reggie Bush like a fight manager between rounds, no question who was in charge! :D :D :D

lol on rackems post i think its ridiculous that we hardly ever get to see good billiards events on tv anymore. this Zo 8 ball thing is a joke.it seems like ESPNs coverage is less and less. we have a golf channel, why not a billiards channel?
 
Reggie bush needs to stick to what he does well which is run with a football.if its pool im watching i would prefer to watch somebody that can play.
 
Lighten up people. It was a charity event, not a pool tournament. Some people without skills do play pool for just fun. That was the idea. Fun and charity.;) :)
 
I actually wacthed a little of this thing early this afternoon and was really disappointed.

Not so much by the quality or even quantity of the pool on the program but by a real missed opportunity on the part of the producers.

The event was in conjunction with Black History Month and they chose to use Jeanette Lee as their expert MC.

Why wouldn't they have at least tried to find out who the best / most respected black players are and asked them to join the festivities.

It seems that this would have been a real opporutnity to draw attention to the playing careers and accomplishments of some great black players like Ike Runnels, Cliff Joyner and even some legendary players like Bugs Rucker and Cisero Murphy.

Maybe I am expecting too much, but with as much talking as there was about Black History Month it might have been nice to actually showcase the talents of an actual black pool player.

Instead we got rappers, gangstas and thug basketball players.
 
Oh well......

Thanks for the heads-up everyone. I taped this earlier on my TIVO and now I think I'll just erase it without watching it.......guess I'll just have to watch the IPT Finals match between Thorsten and Marlon again.......man despite the IPT screw-up I'm not erasing this one.....I love watching it........I think I watch it about once a week!
