    You know you watch too much snooker if...

    ... you know who Kim Hartman is.
    ... you remember Hendry's mullet.
    ... you remember Ebdon's pony tail.
    ... you don't think flicking the pink and sinking the brown are dirty phrases.
    ... you think traffic lights are a clever snooker.
    ... you call drinking beer 'sinking the yellow.'
    ... you call smoking marijuana 'potting the green.'
    ... you flush the toilet and say 'I just potted the brown.'
    ... I'm not gonna say anything about blue balls.
    ... you think Willie Thorne used to be a great snooker player.
    ... you think Dennis Taylor wasn't lucky when he beat Davis in the WC final.
    ... you know that Ebdon is fast compared to Griffiths and Thorburn.
    ... you remember that on black and white tvs, the pink ball is under the green.


    And on another note.

        My favourite is that one about the traffic lights. Good idea. Next time, I see some of of them......

          You have been watching too much snooker...

          ...if it takes one look for you to calculate the points remaining on the table.
          ...if you get on the edge of your seat whenever it's frame ball then sit back and enjoy the show.
          ...if you address your fav players by their given names, unlike those you dislike or simply can't stand. e.g. 'Not that double, Ronnie, nooooo!' as opposed to 'Yep. Murphy's missed a sitter.'
          ...if you joined more than one snooker forum. Double points if the respective forums have chatrooms, too.
          ...if, brutally awoke in the dead of night, you can recite the entire Crucible winners' list. Double points if you get the scorelines, too.
          ...if you know the colour of Stevens' Ferrari, are familiar with Peter Ebdon's hobby and know the names of Dott's children. (I don't .)
          ...if you grumble and feel betrayed whenever a player misses red ball on a break of 99.
          ...if your fav is playing, things are not going well, you turn off the telly, leave the room, decide to do something else-like reading-and 5 minutes lately, guilty look on your face, you turn the telly back on, secretely hoping things have changed. (They usually don't.)
          ...if your friends don't have to ask you why the good mood the next day after a final.
          ...if your friends just know when to shut up...the next day after a final.
          etc. etc.

              So do I. Although knowing that there is something wrong with me, I am sitting here giving DSF names, because they won't start to broadcast the Premier League event until September 21st.

                I thought Ebdon plays football, and Dott's kid is named Louis. Don't know the colour of Ferrari, but I don't think it's pink or yellow

                  Matt used to own a Ferrari. Photographic evidence...here:

                  Ebdon is totally mad about race horses. He even owns one...or more than one. He is unstoppable when it comes down to this topic.
                  And Dott has 4 kids. That's all I know.

                    BC, Ebdon has 4 kids. Dott's only one was born less than two years ago. And I've heard Peter was a president of a local football club

                        I'd swap it for a black Merc.

                          You play a long slow deadweight red to a corner pocket. As it approaches the pocket, a kamikaze woodlouse crawls out from under the cushion and makes its way across the table, conflicting with the path of the red precisely at the point the red gets there. The red, needless to say, veers off course, and the future of the woodlouse is uncertain. - The Statman
