Get the snooker mug.It is a sport requiring the highest level of, practice, accuracy, patience, determination and positivity that can be imagined. I could say I dislike the physical play of the game too, but I don't watch it for that. I watch it to witness things other people only wish they could pull off doing anything else in the world.
