Wanna play a little 8 ball?

26 minutes of highlights as "the south dakota kid", Shane Van Boening. wins another world title...8 ball this time.

Maybe Capt. Carrera could pick up a few tips on cue ball control.

Hmmm, no comment from Capt. Carrera....yep, only into pool for the social aspect with little to no appreciation of how beautiful the game can become. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

She may be working things behind the scenes to minimize the normal scads of people that watch your pool videos and comment.

Usually there are two, maybe three. So far, you got me.

Women want to hang in pool halls to meet men. Because, those are the type of men all women like and want to bring home to dad!
They don't care about serious pool, no need for the video. Make it a Coor's Silver Bullet and a chalked up que... "Shake your tail feather's baby..."

Hmmm .. my post, posted earlier, didn't post. I blame the site, cause otherwise it's my fault, and heaven to Betsie that could happen! (Okay, it's probably me.)

I'm very flattered to be mentioned in your thread PW, thank ya kindly. I also sense a touch of frustration waiting for my response. For that I apologize.

And thank you for posting the video link!

Dixie, hope you enjoyed seeing the game played in a manner you'll never see in your neighborhood bar..His cue ball control is one of the best on the planet.

Come to think of it... They're were a lot of good things about the 70s.

- Before AIDS.
- Herpes was something that very few people had.
- STD's have always been there but condoms worked (mostly).
- Ladies didn't shave like they do now... Just sayin but I kind of miss that.
- No mobiles, Internet, Email and countless other "essential" costs that just seem to be getting worse.
- Today it seems like someone is always trying search your pockets for more money.
- We all got the official news (Is this good or bad?).

When we played 8 Ball you paid you bets in cash to a third party on site. It wasn't a lot of money (usually less than $10 per game) but back then I watched matches that had thousands at stake! All illegal and underground but the local cops used to place bets and never did anything about it... Somehow putting money down made it a whole lot more interesting. I don't gamble today but I'll never forget that feeling. And I can see why people get addicted.
