    AZers in NC

    Borana and I are in Charlotte tonight staying at a hotel near the airport. Any suggestions on good places for us go to dinner? We are probably going by Paradise Billiards later too if anyone wants to go play pool with us.

    I played really bad today :) I'm out already. I'm so going to snap off that second chance tournament though! jk :) but really, I just couldn't get comfortable on the tables. Borana and Nicole are playing awesome though. Nicole took down Val Finnie and went hill-hill with Kim Shaw. My money is on...

    We are down to 8 women, on the winner side: Lisa Davis (formerly D'Atri), Kim Shaw, BuffyJolie and I don't know the other one. On the one-loss side: Nicole Keeney is playing the winner of Betty Sessions and Dawn Fox (we didn't stay to watch the end of that match...we went next door to have...

    We went by the poolhall tonight for a mini tournament and there were some great players there, it should be a good tournament. If anyone is on the fence about coming out here you should. Just a few of the players attending: Kim Shaw, Val Finnie, Janet Atwell, Nicole Keeney, Betty Sessions, and...

    Anyone else get stiffed by InsidePool Magazine?

    Wow, serisouly, just call them or stop by their booth at any event. I've been at the booth before when someone says they never got their subscriptions and they immediately fix it, no questions asked. They usually hire someone to man the booth during the events and, let's face it, that job gets...

    Sarah Rousey comments on the Women's Worlds

    I know Sarah, not well but well enough, and she is a very intelligent woman and definitely HAS thought this out beforehand. She is fully aware of the consequences. I have already seen Sarah snubbed, first hand, at previous events because of her views about DP or their view about her. I don't...

    Sarah Rousey comments on the Women's Worlds

    I agree. Many of these things should not have happened if this is sanctioned as a World Championship. Just as the WPBA regulates their qualifiers and RTC's, the WPA should have restrictions to the format, length of races, methodology used to determine invites, etc. And at the very least, this...

    Sarah Rousey comments on the Women's Worlds

    I doubt it...But I don't see how that has anything to do with my comment on DP's contracts in Asia.

    Sarah Rousey comments on the Women's Worlds

    I think it has more to do with their contracts with the Asian Television networks, they don't have those same contracts with U.S. TV networks. AND, the majority of their sponsors for these events do a large amount of business in Asia. It makes perfect business sense for these to be held in Asia...

    Sarah Rousey comments on the Women's Worlds

    I understand that DP is a business and they make their money on ratings and TV slots so it makes sense for them to want to highlight attractive players and invite whoever they want. However, that should only be true for an INVITATIONAL event, not a WORLD Championship. Regardless to how any of us...

    Updates on SVB's visit to the Philippines

    Look at you guys! Trying to find out his secrets :) Just kidding. When we got to Vegas Shane and I had a few "training session" where we spend a couple hours on my break. We tried the second ball break, 1st ball from side rail, and some from straight up or the bottom rail. Just kinda played...

    Thanks, Dave! Shane obviously helped me prepare for the tournament :)

    Updates on SVB's visit to the Philippines

    Yes, those are all 10-ball matches. It's very rare that Shane plays anything else against those guys for money. He know's where his advantage is and won't give that up against those guys. But who knows, maybe he WILL end up playing Efren some 9-ball today.

    Updates on SVB's visit to the Philippines

    So we all know he didn't do as well as he would have liked to in the Philippine Open. He was originally scheduled to fly back to Las Vegas for the World Summit of Pool and then back to China for the China Open. After looking at the crazy flight schedules, he decided his time would be better...

    Poison Girls in TN this weekend

    I don't think she is officially one of them but I know they gave her some product to try out. I believe she uses the Poison break cue and still plays with her CB cue.

    If you do happen to come down to TN and give one of my girls enough weight...I just might put someone in the box against you ;)

    Me, Borana Andoni and Nicole Keeney will be coming to Bristol, TN this weekend for the WPBA qualifier. Any AZers live in the area and coming by to watch some of the tournament?
