I said i hate all films or tv shows where actors play pool or snooker (or any oher sport for that matter). Newman was half plausible, i suspose, but good luck to you if you think the woeful cruise looked like a player in TCOM.
Would you like to take it back ?
Anyway, we've moved on now to knitting, the game REAL men play. I haven't had me needles out for ages and this has got me juices really going, i can tell you.

The rest of your post is all rubbish or littered with inaccuracy. Davis didn't win the worlds, the mosconi cup is a dog and pony show, hendry is mediocre at chinese 8 ball, and that is being kind, Gray is decent at 9 ball but no world beater by any means, and drago has not dominated 9 ball in any way shape or form. I believe he won the world 10 ball but thats pretty much it. Ultimately, they are all at a certain level, which is a long way short of being genuine contenders for any competition with a world class field.

Name me one pool player that did well in snooker.This is how you play darts ,MVG two nines in the same match!

Skip to 5 mins then 21 mins because Hendry does not look mediocre to me. Grey was European world number 1 after 2 years of playing pool but no world beater heh. Drago won a few pool tournaments despite being a mediocre snooker player compared to the top standard. Efran is the best pool player ever and Earl is up there too and SVB is the blue eyes boy in you eyes. What have they ever done in snooker? Have they ever won a snooker event or ever got a high ranking? Case closed and dismissed.
