I had my eyes done 5 years ago now and it was the best money I have ever spent. 4 guys on my team all had it done in the same month as me along with my wife. I also know of about 8 others that had done that love it also. I paid $500 an eye and my vision was 20/800 and was 20/17 after the...

Hopefully I finally got my picture to attach. My wife and I at are wedding in Singapore two weeks ago.

He was in Madison back in March for the BCW finals. I played him on a bar box and he didn't play well that day, he had been drinking quite a bit. Actually he shorted me, too. Still owes me $30 and I had to eat all the table time. He gave me the breaks for $25/game.

Any one going to the ACS 9-Ball Nationals in Davenport, IA I am just wondering who from this board will be going to the ACS 9-Ball Nationals tournament in Davenport, IA in November. I just sent a check in for my fiance and I for singles, actually it will be my wife by then. :confused...

Check out sportsmansbar.net Fred Ryser will give you the best deal of any one around. He will always treat you right, just ask anyone in the midwest. Tell him Tom Cox sent you.

She is already there. She plays in some league on Mon. and Wed. I am not sure of the place that it's called.

Colin, My reply e-mail was returned for some reason. Maria has not decided on any qualifiers yet. She is going to be working with Jerry Brieseth a little when she gets back. She has not been playing much so needs to get her game back up to where she is happy with it. We will know more when...

My best friend just moved there and we are going to visit her in a few months. Let me know if there is any good action.

Colin, My fiance is from Singapore and speaks Chinese, Indonesian, and English very well. She also played in the Cue Tech Nationals last year after winning the College Nationals. She has met a number of players that all enjoyed having her there and think she has a ton of talent. We live in...

I agree this sucks, but we did it to ourselves. With everyone needing a Hummer or Escalade that gets 12 mpg and there is only one person in the car. What else did we expect we use more oil than the other top ten oil using countries COMBINED. My boat has a V8 and uses a ton of gas but it's...

You will love The Big Shot, it was a blast. The roller coaster was pretty dumb though. I recommend you go bungee jumping by Circus Circus. That is a much better rush, especially when you ask them to dip you into the pool at the bottom.

Play faster. Many players get in the habit of shooting too slow and thinking themselves out of the shots. When most people are in dead punch they don't need to think, they just play. Most people have seen almost every table layout and deep down know what to do. Its a double edged sword...

I personally think that it has more to do with a lot of the players on the tour. They have dug themselves a hole that will be hard to overcome. I don't know all of them personally, but there are a great deal that have done some pretty bad things to make corporate sponsorship a very difficult...

I have to disagree with the original post that Jump Cues make the shot. Yes a jump cue does make a 2 foot jump shot much easier than a full cue, but to be able to jump with accuracy is completely different. I can get over a full ball with OB and CB a little over a chalks width apart with my...

More Fun Facts Here are some more fun facts that Jerry Brieseth had told me a while back when he used to own Cue-Nique Billiards. The first plastic was acutally invented for billiards. I believe his name was John Wesley Hyatt. They offered $10,000 to someone who could invent a better...
