One more practice day trashed.

That's how we did it in the 70s, 80s oh wait no we didn't.

Yep, and now we are lucky enough to be able to be reached easily when an emergency pops up.

Turning off your cell phone for whatever reason is a bonehead move these days. Dont want to bother anyone, put it on silent/vibrate. The whole point of having it is so you can be reached.

Really the problem boils down to the below.

And you have the right to A) Tell them to move, B) Tell them to be more considerate of your space or, C) Move to a new table yourself.

Or D) Pee on the guy's shoes.

I agree with everyone in this thread that puts the blame on the houseman. Hopefully your houseman is a player who loves the game and it's people. Mine is. All 9 footers in this room. One side has Gold Crowns and a Diamond and are maintained impeccably. One Gold Crown is used specifically for one pocket and is triple shimmed. The back of the room has has four more Gold Crowns also maintained impeccably. The owner/houseman reserves these tables for players. On the other side of the room are 4 Gold Crowns and 6 Gandys and that is where he puts non serious players. Works out well. Shameless plug. This room is 20 minutes from the Expo. Classic Billiards. There will be action every night into the morning. Last year players came up that were not even playing in the Expo just looking for action. The pros from the Expo come in at night. End of shameless plug.

Bumping a shameless plug.
Classic Billiards sounds like a great room.

I, Critic...

When in a plane and you can see an almost deserted highway, it seems there are almost always two cars one tailgating the other and none other in sight.

It's like that movie, I Robot, where the bots in storage tend to gather together for some unknown reason.

Thank god Isaac Asimov didn't live to see how they butchered his magnificent work.
