Does anyone know of an online resource that has the complete results of the IPT tournaments...?? Something that includes the group stages all the way to the finals... And maybe even the qualifiers... I'm not looking to debate the merits of the tour or it's organizers... I just want something...

In addition to my love of pool I have also been a huge fan of boxing my entire life... I was doing some research on the boxing career of Danny DiLiberto and came up with the following links which might be of some interest to people... He fought under the name of Dan Toriani, mostly in...

Here are the results of the Galveston World Classic (places 1-4) for each event... The results are unofficial and are merely a result of me being bored and dissecting the brackets... *** Edited to Include Women's Amateur 8-Ball Which Trigger Let Me Know I Had Left Out... Doh!!... I Had to Go...

I will be in Fenton, MO on business from 4/10 - 4/15... I was wondering if there were any local tournaments or even regional events I might hit over that weekend... Just maybe I might be convinced to play some cheap sets against a friendly opponent... I know, I know - it's Easter weekend and...

I got my copy of the TAR Reyes v SVB Derby City DVD in the mail on Monday and I was finally able to watch it last night... I truly believe that action matches are the future of pool as concerns media presentation... There is just something different about watching 2 top players playing for...

I will be in Worthing from July 7-10 and London on July 11-12. I won't be taking any cues, but I'd like to find a place where I could maybe knock around a few balls of some sort. Any suggestions? And if anyone has some suggestions for sights to see that might be a little off the beaten path...

Okay, without getting into the semantics of whether it is right to support Kevin Trudeau by buying DVDs off the IPT website, I have a question... Has anyone bought the IPT DVDs from the website? Not so much the Reyes-Sigel, Jones-Sigel ones, but rather the ones with the Hall of Famers and more...

Okay, here's the situation... I have three (3) first edition hardback copies of Hustler Days by R.A. Dyer with dust jackets. I am looking to trade them for... Anything. That's right. Just send me some legit offers. I will take other books that I don't have (99 Critical Shots, Play Your...

I was at a garage sale yesterday and buried deep in a box of books was this one: "Rolling Thunder (Across a Green Plain)" by Kent Dunning. The title page says Written and Published by: Kent Dunning 1997 Springfield, MA. The blurb on the back says: "Pool players will relate to Ajaye's...

Does anybody out there have a comprehensive list of the results of Steve Mizerak's Senior Tour? I am a little shaky on the history, but I believe the tour started in 1996 and went through to just a few years ago. I was curious to see the tournament by tournament and year by year results...

This weekend I started on Season 2 of my completely illegal dubbing of the late 70's tv show Vega$ starring Robert Urich. Episode 2 of Season 2, "The Usurper" has guest appearances by Minnesota Fats and Jimmy Mataya. Dan Tanna (Urich) goes to talk with Fats who is a friend of Philip Roth (Tony...

These are cues from the mid-90's that kind of look like fancy sneaky petes with black phenolic joints. The various models have woods like cocobolo, dymondwood, etc. I see one on Ebay, but it is reaching a price that seems too high for me. If anyone here has one in the $100-$110 range shoot me...

Okay, here's the situation... Recently I had my house carpeted and had some wood floors put in. In the process of doing that I got rid of most of my available shelf space for videos and DVD's. My Accu-Stats collection suffers the consequences. This is kind of a half-baked idea, but here...
