text: do you think pool is a racist's game and who came up with what ball should be what color? my friend and i were thinking today, (yes it hurt a little) why is the white ball the dominate ball?  it is the one that hits all the other balls in to the pockets, and why is the black ball last?  we thought the man who made the game was racist.  only for the simple reason that the white ball seems to dominate the black ball.  the white call hits the black ball in, the whit call hits the strip balls in, the white ball hits the solid color balls in the pockets.... why cant the 8 ball be blue or green?  when does it have to be the white ball hitting the other balls around?  why cant this change?  i love pool.  however, it just came to me that this is a racist’s game. do u think it is? yes of course it's a racists game, but not the actual game or ball colors..hell i abuse who ever i'm playing to the max, even if it entails being a lil racist ,,,,but hell it's only in fun cos cop the same from opponent, that's life who isn't racist these days huh? but not game itself,that's being plain stupid to the max...cheers bro...
