I got balls but my bum hurts!!!

Last week, the new owners at Mile 9, formerly Table Steaks East, approached me to say how much they appreciate all my hard work with promoting pool in there and to show their appreciation, they offered to buy me a new set of balls!

So, while I was picking up some other goodies from CueStix yesterday, I took the liberty of bringing back my new balls. They are SO beautiful!!!

Check them out:

These are my new balls in front of “my” table with new lights!

These are my dirty, fuzzy balls after only a couple racks of 9 ball:

I taught a lesson today and stayed to practice alone (with my new balls) for about four hours. Before I started I knew there was something not-quite-right going on with my tail bone-ish area. Well, by the end of the four hours, I could barely walk or lift my right leg. I think I might have pulled a muscle???

I seriously tweaked it. I don’t know. I just know I feel old and have never experienced anything quite like this before.

Ironically, my pool lesson today was with my chiropractor. My neighbor Jeff just brought me over some Icy Hot, so now I too can smell just like Shaquille O’Neal. Icy to dull the pain. Hot to relax it away. Aaaahhhh…

Good thing I have new balls.

  1. Seems that what you got is a case of “pool bum”.
    Seldom fatal, but decidedly inconvenient.
    You should recover soon, hopefully.

    Now, turning our attention to your balls…
    Try this, when your balls get that “not so fresh feeling”:
