The situation is the begiinning of a pool league. This league gathers team pool players from a statewide area. There are 24 five person teams made up of the most diehard pool enthuisists in the state. Eight of the teams, my team, are in a division where some of the strongest teams in the state battle it out once each month. The play begins at 11am and continues until 8/9 pm. Each team plays four full matches. Nice format as you get to play a long full day of 8ball....a good time is had by all.
At the end of the day I had to round up my drunk pool teammates for the long two hour drive home; we carpool. Being the desinated driver (damn my luck...
) I thought I would see if I could get a feel for what the buzz was in our little microcosm of the pool world......my first question was: "How many fellow poolplayers ask you about the IPT's problem about the delayed payment of prize money?".........here are some of the responses I have filtered out......."SHUT THE FU AND DRIVE YOU IDIOT!"........"WTF IS THE IPT?"...........JUST KEEP THIS ROAD BOAT BETWEEN THE DITCHES MAN!......."ARE WE THERE YET?"......"I PLAYED THE BEST POOL OF MY LIFE BUT MY BACK WASN'T STRONG ENOUGH TO CARRY YOU DOGMEAt BASTARDS OVER THE LINE"........."YOU MISSED TWO BIH'S YOU *****DICK"........"WTF IS THE ICC GOT TO DO WITH POOL"......."WHAT WAS THE ORIGINAL QUESTION"........ "GET YOUR HAND OFF MY ASS"......."ARE WE THERE YET?"........."PULL OVER, PULL OVER....I GOTTA PUCK......."...........
Well, you get the picture........LOL
