hey comrade, (I really don't know if I'm using that word right)
"Pull"
it isn't that it is something that it can be seen if it can be it or not it but it is its own identity if it is what it is on not what it is, is its own question onto itself if it desires it.
Did you get it?
in this case, the term "Russians" is not used to specify people from a specific country but instead used as slang to represent foreign involvement in a national issue. This is is not specific to your homeland. Now that you point it out though, in this day and age, anything is possible.
As I said in a previous post.
If you want the credit for beating Mosconi, then you need to beat him on his own turf, 1 game, 1 chance, one long run until you miss, with a ref, a normal rack, right side of the table, Maple cue, Masters, same table dimensions, no 5 hour boost, on a table used by the public, with the same kind of felt, balls, and a licensed attorney with a Notary to make it all nice and legal just like happened to the Legend. Hec you might as well drive there that day and sleep in your car for a while before you start at 8:00 before 50 or so near-strangers that have assembled in advanced who are having a few "pops" and waiting to see the famous you play pool.
