Things have changed over the years.

I hated watching WPBA on ESPN. The audience claps for every single shot, no matter how routine. Makes the audience seem not too knowledgeable about the game.

That's because they weren't! Nothing worse than someone applauding a good shot as soon as the ball goes in the pocket, before they even wait to see where the cue ball ends up - which often is not good.I hated watching WPBA on ESPN.

When shooting the 9-ball and your opponent says good shot as the 9-ball is still rolling towards the pocket, shouldn't that be considered as concession of game regardless of whether the balls goes in?
