It means that someone has mixed up three different expressions. One is "to be put behind the eight ball," which is an allusion to the game of pool, meaning to be placed in an awkward, difficult or untenable position. The second expression is to "throw someone a curve ball," which is an allusion to the game of Baseball, meaning to suddenly introduce unexpected difficulties for someone. Third is to be "behind the curve," an allusion to graphs, meaning not at the leading edge of things, out of it, slow or stupid.
As to what the sentence is TRYING to mean, that's anyone's guess. Maybe its intended meaning is He really dropped the ball that time, or He messed up hugely there.
From the eponymous game, the phrase 'to be behind the 8-ball' means being in a difficult situation.This would seem to obviously stem from the fact that when playing 8-ball, the 8-ball must be pocketed after clearing the player's other seven balls (or, in some variations, that the 8-ball cannot be hit first). To be "behind" this ball would mean that the player has no clear shot at the balls he has left to sink.Other sources suggest the term comes from Kelly Pool and refers to balls behind the 8 ball (i.e. higher in number), or that the black ball is harder to aim.---In the game of '8-ball', as well as many others, the object of the game is, simply, to pocket the 8-ball. Many rules prevent a player from simply shooting 'for' or 'at' the 8-ball directly, such as, for example, a rule stating the balls must be pocketed in numerical rotation, or, perhaps, seven 'stripes' or 'solids' must be pocketed first.Nevertheless, a player behind the ball can still win. If his shot, as well as fulfilling any rule-based requirement, also, while at least one ball is still rolling, pockets the 8-ball.---The game is forfeited if a player's cue ball hits the (black) eight ball first. A 'behind the eight ball' position leaves a player in imminent danger of losing.It means you have a potential problem
Azuka has a variety of meanings. It can mean glorious past, strong back, or the one with the supreme force behind him/her. It is a name that can be used for both male and female.
To be one with the team. There is no good team that has ball/puck hogs.
Ballon means either 'balloon' (a hot-air balloon) or 'ball' (at least the size of the handball one).
googly means googly eyes or a bowled ball that swerves in one direction and breaks in the other.
The first 4 strikes in a row have been given the name 'hambone' (unofficially of course!)
Victoria the evil one
In the early 1870's two major controversies became issues that were solved. In 1878, the governor of California won a $50,000 wager on whether a galloping race horse would have all four feet off the ground at the same time. Photography proved the governor correct as it clearly dispaled the hooves all in the air at the same time.The other controversy revolved around the baseball "curve ball". National magazines that carried the story had experts on both sides of the question of this pitch. One prominent expert claimed the so-called curve ball was an optical illusion. One side claimed the reason the curve ball seemed to curve was the persistence of retinal impressions. The story continued like this: The constant story of a curving ball are doing much damage to men and children who have been deluded that the heroics of a great pitcher revolve around the curve of a curve ball. The other side used wind tunnel experiments to prove that the ball did "curve". It seems the question is now settled. Slow motion filming confirms the curve in the curve ball.
The spin the pitcher puts on the ball as it leaves his hand - creates a pressure difference to one side, as the ball travels though the air - curving the ball.
they can throw one maybe 3 times a game but not for every batter
use the inside of your foot and hit the ball slightly to one side and mak sure your foot is also under the ball. It will be hard at first but will get easier after practising
In an awkward or disadvantageous position -- in billiards, the 8 ball is usually the last one that you want to sink into the pocket. Thus, if your cue ball is stuck behind it, there's not a lot you can do to make a point.

One experiment used in Physics is a ball rolling down a spiral track. When the ball gets to the end, it will go straight off because the curve of the track is gone.
This is due to that when the hands are spinned then the ball will also be spinned .For ,the chapathi kept on pan will be toasted when pan is heated...
In the game of pool, the 8-ball is the last ball a player must sink in order to win the game. However, until he or she has sunk all the rest of the balls (i.e. 1 through 7 or 9 through 15), touching the 8-ball with the cue ball is considered a foul stroke. Therefore, one is said to be "behind the 8-ball," it means to be stuck in a position where any move will have a negative result -- to be trapped with no way forward.
