    When Are the US Mosconi Cup players picked?

    Dogs I cannot imagine Matchroom giving up a pick, can you? I am guessing if it ever happened it may replace the Fan Vote, but as you mentioned it appears to have been a pretty good success last year. I will contact Matchroom and make that suggestion that perhaps they could look at the...

    When Are the US Mosconi Cup players picked?

    Joey I agree 100% that if an American player wins the Open and aren't already qualified, that they should get an auto invite, that's a great point.

    who do you think should be on the USA mosconi cup team

    My Mosconi Team I think 4 of the team are pretty certain the 5th as I understand it will be by Fan Vote, possibly from the next 8 in the BCA rankings. 1. Johnny Archer - #1 Rankings 2. Rodney Morris - #2 Rankings 3. SVB - Matchroom Pick 4. Dennis Hatch - Matchroom Pick as previous MVP 5...

    When Are the US Mosconi Cup players picked?

    The team is not started to be picked until after the US Open in October. I e-mailed Matchroom a little while ago about tickets and some other stuff and the format at that time was probably going to be: 1. BCA #1 Ranked Player - Currently Johnny Archer 2. BCA #2 Ranked Player - Currently Rodney...

    Pool Player.......Health Question

    Tom Sorry to hear that but there are so many different types of back surgery these days it's best for your friend to talk with his medical staff. I have generally found that these days if you ask the question "what results can I expect from this surgery, best and worst results" they will give...

    Pool Related Pet Peeves...

    Lots of good understandable annoyances here, mine are: Making a foul and not declaring it, especially when you know you've done it and so does everyone else in the room. Cigarettes and drinks on or over the table. Getting so drunk you can hardly stand up let alone play pool, OMG that's some...

    Reality Check

    Unfortunately I don't think any of this will happen, but I support your right to feel that way. IMHO the thread on overrated players is too stupid for words, who's rating them, against what, against who and why? I have seen some players that are not playing as well as they used too, I have...

    Practice Drills...

    I try to do around a 30 min session and include both practice drills and playing racks just to keep the interest up. I will then take a short break, come back for another 30 minute session of drills, racks and then spend the last 10 mins of this session practicing my safety's.

    Piercyexclusive could be in danger

    Marshall Get Well Soon. I'm no Doctor but as I understand it there are two types of Dengue Fever and most people do recover fully. The worse of the two is 'haemorrhagic' lets hope Marshall has the lesser of the two. To anyone travelling to these parts of the World please heed Jay's words...

    Turning Stone no longer a ranking event.

    JCIN Some great points most of which are very valid, however I think your point about player interaction is different from what I have found. The last tournament we went to was the Gem City in Marietta, GA and we had no difficulty talking to any player we wanted. We spoke with them before after...

    Looking to purchase pool cue

    You really should check the cues for sale on this Forum, you are likely to get a better deal and more cue for your buck. If you do go over to AAA I would personally look at a Viking, of all the cues I have bought, including customs, I still normally play with my Viking G27. It's nothing fancy...

    WPBA why top players were gay?

    I just think the whole thread here (as ever with this sort of question) has been to some extent hijacked. I have no clue about the reasons behind the original question, not sure anyone really does or ever will. So the best thing to say is I simply enjoy watching the Women play and most players...

    Shoulder Pain while playing

    Brian That really could be good news, except the not picking up a cue, I really hope he's right, it's much better than getting a cortisone shot or surgery. I am trying to hold out until our League Team get's a bye week, because if he gives me another shot it takes that long just to stop...

    Kenny Congratulations to you and your wife, your life has changed forever man and it's all for the better. If you haven't got a table at home, nows the time to get one, you'll be tied to home for a while. The other thing of course is they just get more expensive as they get older so buying a...

    Under Pressure

    That's the way with lots of sports, isn't it? Thinking about I think I'd rather be a snooker player than a boxer, there's not much chance of being KO'd in a snooker match :smile:
