Quotes about the game of pool.

Ginky is one of the more colorful players in the New York area. Below are some of the things he's known for saying and the circumstances:

"DRESS-UP BABY, WE'RE GOING OUT!"
He made a ball on the break and has position on the 1-ball.

"SUCK IT!"
Opposing player is about to scratch in a pocket. I know this sounds horrible but when you hear it, you can't help but laugh.

"HOW'D HE HIT IT!!!"
Not a question but a statement. This would be said after his horse/teammate hit a nice shot.
 
Favorites -

After a slop shot "Who doesn't shoot the 4 rail bank?"
After a nice leave/nice shot "Finally, someone read my book"
After a Break and Run "Hold on, let me go get my notebook"

One I hate -

APA 8ball "mark it and park it" i don't know, just sounds so cheesy.

Someone asked him, when do you show your speed? His response was, I never cut mashed potatos with a hacksaw. HMMMMM? :D

Didn't want to...

:cool: Getting on a very tough shot I have very little confidence in making, low percentage to say the least. I'll sometimes say. "I didn't want to show you this but.." It makes me concentrate more and if I do make it, YOWWWZZA!!! :eek: :eek: Just for fun.. :D
 
"Playin pool for money with that guy ain't gamblin. Gamblin involves an element of chance. That guy has no chance."

In an accustats match, a player was faced with a very difficult shot and table layout, and Grady, who was commentating, when asked by Billy how he would play the shot, said, " I would rather eat a spider." That is one of my favorite sayings.
 
Quotes

One I like is in playing one pocket when you bank a ball and it kinda lucks in by kissing another ball is to say "Hey I wouldn't take that but the rules say I have to."
Or when someone make a horrible shot as in missing a easy one and says My god what kind of shot was that, just tell them a bad shot.---Smitty
 
"Pool is a game of luck....and with a little skill, you too can be as lucky as me"
 
From a drunk guy when asked for a spot before a money game --> "Spot? What spot? Spot's a dog's name.."

From an oldtimer trying to play some mind games to a rookie before a tournament match --> "Go easy on me kid, I already forgot what you know about pool.."
 
After Mike Zuglan ran 148 and then missed in the US Open, he held his finger up to his temple like he wasshooting himself in the head.

Grady says: The caption of this picture ought to be - "this man has just had dinner with Keith McCready"
 
A few of my favorite Keithisms,

After the break shot and the balls are still rolling, "Take your places!"

When the cue ball is slowly rolling into position, "Get your driver's license!"

After a miss by his opponent and the balls are wide open (this is my all time favorite), "Time to get the troops out of the hot sun!"

And there were many more where those came from.
 
If I make a hard shot I'll say, "I learned that one from teeveeee." (in a country accent) A guy I knew in TN used to say that, and it was really funny.

Or - if I make a real lucky shot that is just ridiculously lucky I like to say,"I'll have to put that in my video."

Two of my favorites.
 
After Being Told He Was About To Be Stiffed

True story-

Many, many years ago at the old Golden Cue in Phoenix, after having won a nice chunk of dinero, the loser told the winner that he had no money and couldn't pay.

The winner said - "If you don't beg, borrow or steal that cash, I'm going to stick that 9 ball so far down your mouth, you'll have to stick a cuestick up your arse to shoot it out!"

He had his money about an hour later.
