    Robert...

     

    I'm glad you liked it!  When I watch that video, which I've done several times since discovering it on youtube, I see people having fun playing foosball...and I wish I could join them. I doubt they're complaining that the table isn't this brand or that brand, or that the table (and Foos-scene) isn't as good as it was thirty friggin' years ago...  They're smiling and playing Foosball, and I'll bet trying to win and kick some butt!  If somebody showed up and started talking about how crappy their table was...I can't imagine what kind of look they'd get.  But...it would probably send a message akin to what the signature of reknowned Canadian forum-poster TOSEXY (aka Mario Ariganello) says over on the Foosball Board...

    Dwayne, my brother...

     

    Where you is.....is in a realm of Smokin' Foosball Skill that I can only hope to imagine visiting someday...  And, I have no doubt that if you were to be plunked down in one of those hard-scrabble villages, and introduced to the table du jour...it wouldn't be very long at all before the local players were looking on in total awe, shaking their heads, and smiling in wonder at what I have always felt is one of The Sport's most terrific occurences...you getting your game on, Dwayne-style.  I don't believe a Foosball Table has ever been made that you couldn't amaze on... You rock out loud, Brother.

     

    I love Foosball...and I think Mister Todd Loffredo said it oh, so well... 

     

    " It takes Love. You have to love it like it's something you want more than anything. You have to live it, drink it, feel it, ask questions about it. Think about it some more. Cry about it. Get frustrated about it. Fight it. Need it. Think about it at night when you go to sleep. Make it number 1 and you have a good chance to do something about it.  It doesn't take a special person to be a world champion. It takes making the game special to you. "

     

     

      ****AMEN.****
