    Just some pics

    I've got hundreds of pictures of the times you've come to town and I'll share one of my favorites. Here's a picture of you losing at snooker. :D Seriously, we were just talking about you tonight and hoping you can make it again this year.

    20th Mosconi Cup makes history....

    I only saw the last two matches today, but every time Team Europe broke the end ball went to the bottom rail and straight back into the nine. Unless Team USA can figure something else out, they need break the same way, IMO.

    Who will win? Earl Strickland vs Efren Reyes January 14-16, 2014

    I don't think he sees too good close up. I took a lesson from him a while back and he was struggling to see if two balls were frozen. I had a pair of reading glasses on me and asked him if he wanted to use them. He declined and said something about how bad they are for your eyes. This was right...

    TAR 37 Contest for a Contest Idea

    Why don't you have a...take the square root of an isosceles triangle and multiply that by how many balls a Pygmy Ninja makes on the break on a bumper pool table...contest. Or have photo/caption contest. Pygmy Ninjas are the teacher. :)

    Interesting pool story....

    Earl proclaims "the game knew nothing until I came along, I showed it everything it knows!" CJ replies "Oh yeah?, the game just taught me a new system - Super EXact Touch Of Inside - and I shall call it..."

    Varner vs ?? All around.

    This is from the 2009 Galveston World Classic 8-ball. A (then) 60 year old Nick Varner didn't fare too bad. http://www.ctsondemand.com/EntrantMatches.aspx?EntrantID=175660297 He beat Shawn Putnam, John Schmidt, Francisco Bustamante, Rodney Morris, Lee Van Corteza, and (I heard) put a 7-pack on...

    Happy Birthday Rubyron !!!!

    I'm not sure if this is embarrassing to me or not. :shrug: Someone caught a pic of me right after I won a small local tournament. On a side note, does anyone know how many calories are in a urinal mint? Seriously, thank you Iowa Player, KoolKat, Huckster, JoeyA and JAM! You really made my...

    Changing my opinion of Pro players.

    After the clinic in Portland was over, I went and picked up my 10 year old son in the hopes that he could just meet the guys. Darren ended up spending at least an hour working with him and said he wanted to see him next year to check his progress. Nick worked with him on some trick shots too. I...

    Varner & Hall Legends DVD contest/givaway

    I'm going to up the ante. :eek: You guess MY middle name and I'll give you 30 points for $100 on the 12 footer at Classic. No cackling allowed. :D

    Efren Reyes Coaches/Teaches AND is a Champion at Selecting Students

    Yes, I agree. But Efren with no side spin would be not nearly as great.

    Not all of them, Earl recommends you spin every ball in with outside english unless otherwise needed.

    Varner & Hall Legends DVD contest/givaway

    I was going to guess "Joe's Garage" in 2011 but I guess I'll stick with "Alicante, Spain". I have a question for you. :D What is Nick's middle name? Guess correctly and I'll spot you 25 points in a frame of snooker. :)

    Efren Reyes Coaches/Teaches AND is a Champion at Selecting Students

    Ironically, what make Efren so great is his ability to pocket balls using any kind of spin he wants on the cueball.
