Hi Alice,
Always the diplomat aren't you. Well you know I don't have to be nice to anyone so I'll say what people would like to but can't.
Of course Helena and plenty of others do it to shark people and get them out of stroke and their rhythm. The rule you girls have about no shot clock till 45 minutes sucks. Even then, all the time you can take for each shot adds up.
I 'd like to put a ball in front of each hole and see how much time it would take them to make all of them. You know you get those people that are going to powder up each shot, then walk around the table, then go wipe the powder off, then get down and stroke a few times, then get back up and chalk up, THEN they'll make the ball that's sitting right in front of the hole and go thru the whole routine again for the next one.
Races to 11 in 9 ball never use to take more than an hour and a half going hill-hill, and that was playing PUSH-OUT! Straight pool matches to 100 never took more than that either.
It's pitiful how bad this has come in pool with the men and the women but till someone gets tough it's here to stay.............A RACE TO 9 PLAYING 9-BALL TAKING LONGER THAN A BASEBALL GAME!!!!!!!! That's real sweet!
Take care hun,
Steve
P.S. A side note to Sarah Rousey...I bet against you playing my "friend" at DCC, George Middleditch (what a clown...I can't believe I did that cause he can't play a lick, but I never saw you play and thought maybe his bullshit act might get to you). I can see I can bet on you. You seem like a nice kid, don't let the pool life change you. You handle yourself very well from what I've seen so far, if you ever come to Detroit you've got me on your side.
