this struck me funny
two different leagues playing out of the same bar
a guy in my league asked a guy from the other league how he shot
maybe it was the way he said it
or i had the proper amount of beers in me or both
guy answers, very slowly, "well, i shot good enough to lose"
guess ya had to be there
but i cracked up
never quite heard it put that way before
 
Been there...done that....got the T-shirt

What I hate is having your opponent say "Good shooting!" as he shakes your hand after you've lost :confused:

If I shot that good, why did I lose?:D

I try to avoid this (on the rare occasions when I win:p ) and instead say something like "Good match! I just got some lucky rolls tonight!"
 
I heard a great line last night too.

Juggalo goes up to this super hot chick who is in our bar last night and goes, "Scuse me ma'am can I borrow your bridge?"

And she says, "The only bridge I use is the one between my legs."


Stunned silence turned to uncontrollable laughter followed.

...and I don't even know what she meant by that.
 
another great line

this was about 6 years ago when i just started playing pool
i got talked into a one-pocket league at snookers
my first match was against a pretty respectable player
so, i was nervous to begin with
i'm sure a lot of you have heard of him
ralph black
he had me locked up in the stack bigtime
i had one bridge on top of the other to try to just get a piece of the cueball
well, i dropped the bridges
balls went scattering everywhere
i felt like a total doofus
i looked at ralph
and with that dry sense of humor he has
he says "well, more went in your pocket then mine, i guess you win"
for the people that know ralph, i'm sure you can picture him saying that
 
speaking of ralph black.....????

haven't seen him in about a year
i heard he quit pool altogether

another time i was watching the thursday nite 9 ball tourney at snookers
ralph was sitting there watching also, but he was really watching the two oriental kids playing on the billiard table
he was just sitting there shaking his head
i said, "what's up ralph?"
again with that dry sense of humor he has
he says, "those guys don't have a clue what they're doing. neither one of them has MADE a ball yet"

It is possible to play good and still lose.
At least, that is what I have been told. I just play bad. :eek:

It's a wonder that Valentino didn't ask if her bridge required a toll.

Heard this at Chris's and I've repeated it a few times but it's just not the same.

As one player was racking, the other player went,"Rack 'em good! This ain't no bowling alley!" :D

you're a ninja???? ;)
 
I cracked a guy up once after finishing a match where I and my opponent both shot terribly. He asked who won and I replied "I lost before he did." I though it was a pretty straight line but the other guy filled his sinuses with beer.
 
Sometimes ...

a sarcastic comment can 'motivate' a player to work on their game harder. Although not the nicest thing to do, it does work sometimes.

of course, I grew up in a time when if you couldn't hold your own against someone, then you were just plain stupid playing them. In other words, you didn't get in the batting cage until you could hit the ball. And getting a spot from someone was almost unheard of.

I'm proof positive that it's possible to play good and lose. I do it all the time (that is, when I'm not playing badly and losing:D )!!!

Not that I invented sliced bread or anything, but I've been saying this for years.

Well it's about time you stopped Fred. If I hear one more person tell me they didn't invent sliced bread, I swear, I won't be responsible for my actions. We know you didn't invent sliced bread. I only wish I could say the same. Can you understand how annoying it is to say you never invent sliced bread to the only person who did invent slice bread? I never thought it would catch on. I was just heartilly sick of the best thing before sliced bread was the best thing. I never would have bothered if I'd known every Tom Dick & Harry would go around claiming they didn't invent it.
