Excuses for loss

Two favorites

I always like to proclaim the cue ball is warped. Hilarious to watch people pick up the cue ball and carefully examine it!

My favorite was when somebody lost the lag and their opponent broke and ran the set. "What happened?"

"I dogged the lag."

I remember that, but I thought it was a couple pros in a smaller tourney who flipped for the break, the guy broke and ran out the set and the reply was "I dogged the flip"?

Either way, best excuse ever! lol
 
could be either or both

by far the best thred ever... the best i have ever heard is when i was playing our leauges top shooter. (not that good) i beat him 8-0 dropped is average and put his buddie in top spot. after i beat him he said " i only lost cuz my phone kept going off." i looked at him confused and said " dude you didnt even shoot. i broke and ran on you" he sat down, called his gf and bithced her out for makeing him lose. musta been then guy that got cheated on haha...
 
I made the mistake of saying I got robbed when a ball rolled off and rattled the pocket and my opponent yelled as loud as he could, "Somebody call the cops, this guy just got robbed!"
That is still in the back of my mind after 25 years, lol.
 
I played a 7 in an APA league on 9' tables with shimmed pockets. After he asked if the table was longer or if something was different. I told him the pockets were shimmed and tighter than the other tables. To which he replied, "I wish I would have known that before we played our match."

I asked him what difference that made...he just mumbled and walked off.

One of my old sparring partners was having a not so unsual bad day at the table.... then it was like a light bulb went off in his head. "I figured out why i am missing so badly.... I am either undercutting or overcutting every shot!" Wow.... way to figure that one out genius. After I explained the only other possibility was flying them straight over the pockets onto the floor.... he had a little chuckle over it at least.

I once told my instructor that I had figured out that my biggest problem with my game was that I was always either hitting the cue ball too hard or too soft.

He just looked at me for a minute and laughed. "That's everybody's problem," he told me. It took me a minute to figure out how dumb I was...

Years and years ago Danny Medina and I were in Lincoln Nebraska at the Madsens tournament.
Around 11 pm this guy asks Danny to play some $10 9 ball on the bar box.
Danny ends up 28 games ahead adn the guy says,"i ma going to find a better player to play.

I played him and won another $220 pretty quickly and he says,"You guys don't know how to play bar tables!!
i said,"well, since you are only 50 games stuck, can we get some lessons"!
