I'm watching that on ChiveTV right now and this played and although it runs too long, I'm amazed at the accuracy of these shots.
They do this with other stuff too so maybe it doesn;t have as much to do with the math as it does the Rain Man level of accuracy of the people.

Probably. It might explain why I was never the greatest at math and certainly not an outstanding pool player.

If you think about it all sports involve math. It is just with the slower sports it is easier to see.

Pool is a game of geometric shapes...so yes...

Basketball and Hockey are on TV right now. They use many of those as well. Jamarion Styles has "no arms" (about half of the right upper arm, whole left upper arm to (elbow? not whole forearm)). Here he is sinking 3 pointers.

Pool isn't a 'sport' in my opinion

Any card game deals with more math imo.

You're all wrong. This is the most mathematical sport.
