Why the hell isn't it as popular as tennis and golf? It's got annual tournaments like the tennis Grand Slams and the golf Majors. It's a pretty damn cool sport.

What are you talking about? Never even heard of Snooker.

Because in terms of excitement it's like watching paint dry.

Because "Snooker" sounds like some sort of twisted sex move involving feces.

I'll be honest here, and this is coming from someone who watches snooker occasionally, it's not as well known because it's boring as hell to watch.

"Snooker" is lifeless fool who thinks it's funny to insult people for no reason and make spam flashes.

It's like pool except the tables are bigger and you have to pot the balls in a certain order, it's lame.

Why does snooker make me think of sex, like a variant of shocker?

Snooker is big in the UK with tournments and such. Can any UK users tell me is it on TV like Pool is on ESPN?

Well we were dumb enough to think it was gonna happen.

It surprises me how many people have been saying, "What's snooker", when you all have google at your disposal. According to Tom, it is a "ridiculous game".

I actually like watching it, or at least having it on in the background, I find it relaxing. I don't like playing it though, I'm too small to stretch over the table.

All of the major championships are shown on TV, but those only happen once every few months. I suppose there's some sports channel that airs smaller tournaments and maybe the same with pool matches, but I haven't seen any.

Oh please, snooker is ALOT bigger than pool in terms of competition. Like I said, snooker is just as big as tennis and golf, but it's not so popular in the US, more in the UK.

Honestly, I'd rather watch golf than baseball.

Man, snooker is an awesome game. I guess people find it boring because they either dont understand it, or they really suck at it. Owning my own table its easy for me to say this.
