Codename Condor Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 "Early in the Seventies an old pool hustler we call "Blue Shirt" was watching as Weenie Beannie balanced a silver dollar on edge between two pieces of pool chalk at the head of a nine foot table here in Lynchburg, Virginia. Beannie was trying to sucker a "road agent" from Chicago into a wager, since they hadn't been able to get together all night. The bet was that Beannie would shoot the silver dollar seven feet down the tale and seven feet back up the table making it pass between the two pieces of chalk in ten shots. "Blue Shirt" watched Beannie "dog-it" a couple times then he turned and walked wearily toward the front of the building dragging his cue case behind him. As he followed his stomach out the front door I heard him mutter.."dis game gets tougher all the time." What "Blue Shirt" meant was..it gets harder and harder to make a game these days. But what he said is true...our game is tough! It's the most challenging individual sport devised by man. I once asked an old friend and pool warrior of many years if he could think of any other individual sport where one can put up his reputation, his championship, or his money and lose without getting a chance to compete. He thought for a while but didn't come up with an answer until weeks later. "Marbles" was his answer." Willie Jopling. Resuming: Marbles is tougher than SC.

JerseyJohn Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 There were other games, of course, and Blue Shirt tried all of them. But in the end he always wound up coming back to this game. It was something about the challenge, they say. Anyway, he didn't have the fingers of a marbles champ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Dozer Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 i was visiting my moms with no internet so i thought what the heck i will play +2 as allies. the maginot line was a joke and was thinking of quitting but said no lets see. so they attack spain (personally bad move) so minors were out. i pulled back all the way to moscow with the water line and wore them down down because they only made 300mmp a turn. so after taking out italian troops and weak point rushed the bottom line killing on hq and after awile there resources gave way and d-day was to much. will try axis soon at +2, could be very hard.

JerseyJohn Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Appreciated, Condor. That's one of my favorite movies, the novel ranks very high too, along with the short story (in Playboy) that started it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
