Getting sharked by your own team.

What can you do when your getting sharked by your own teammates? I play in a friendly league where i find myself being sharked by my own team more than anyone else i play against. My teammates tend to drink what i would consider a lot (but i'm just basing that on the fact that i have maybe 6 beers a year...lol) and once we get near the end of the evening they annoy me more than any opponent has ever tried. As an example, last week i had a fairly easy 8 ball in the side to make, 2 of my teammates are sitting about 3 feet away right in front of the pocket but as usual they are talking to each other about some bullshit or another rather than paying attention to the players and then all of a sudden right as my cue is coming forward to hit the cueball one of my guys starts waving his hands in the air, guess what happened, yea i missed the easy 8 ball. Now i know they aren't doing it on purpose since they aren't even paying attention to me playing, but i was kind of annoyed. Then on the same night, one of my drunken teammates knocks my break cue (which was sitting in a Qclaw in what should have been a safe distance from any danger) to the floor and the damn thing now has about 3 dings in the shaft, this made my blood boil and i tell him that i haven't had one of my cues hit the floor in 20yrs and that he should f'ing pay attention to what he's doing. How can you deal with teammates like that without coming off as too much of a dick?

The worst is when your teammates question almost every decision you make.

Hehe they don't pay enough attention to question anything.

But overall in the replies so far i just need to block them out and just play my game which seems like good advice
