Title: OT: Snooker World Championship

Dammit. Friggin Ebdon. I can't believe Hendry conceded., the fool. A coupla snookers and he coulda had it, but no, he gave in like a scared little girl.

Thoughts comments?

Snooker....

Strangely hypnotic...

Mostly mindnumbing...

Weird european sport. Involves running down horses in VW beetles for points. Very dangerous. Many casualties.

Snooker:
Big table. Has lots of coloured balls and ...err... 15 reds. Two guys and two cues. You pot a red, then a colour, then a red, etc etc. The colours are placed back on the table when potted. Once all the reds have gone, the colours stay down. Once all the reds have gone you pot the colours in the order: Yellow, Green, Brown, Blue, Pink, Black.

But still, it looks kinda strange....:D

You try playing it against a top player and we'll see how well you do. :D

Being such a sports fan (acually I am not) I've got to ask: Sport, what is it for?

I did try. He rammed me into the side, winged the horse and sent me into a spin.
His motor kacked out on him and I thought it was over, he then proceeded to kick his way through the windscreen and started manically swinging the gearstick at the three closest equine targets.

Messy...

I retired after that, nothing like a deranged horse assasin to put the respect for life back into you.
