    Could this man be the Mosconi Messiah

    People wonder why pool isn't making money and rooms are shutting down.

    Agreed the owner should know about these things, In our rom the mager seems more interested in how many he cna run off than retain. Business reflects i9t too.

    What's the Best Way to Select the Next US Mosconi Team?

    IMO, the words winners and losers shoule be dropped. There should be the attiude of winners as having been chosen. IN my old job we used the mange activities and let the results fall where they may. IN other words, do not mange results, manage activities and be prepared. I think the coach or...

    With all due respect CJ Wiley

    It seems unfortuantely that often talent and verbal skills seem to really stir some up in this game. I do not recallCJ ever attacking someone or disrespecting someone for his/her opinions on the game or anythng else. It seems to me he states and we can agree, disagree, or ignore. We have...

    ★ Mosconi Cup ★ Absolutely Spectacular ★

    I think this is a powwerful statement and from a true fan of the sport/game. IMO it is a blackeye for we Americans and we should be more careful about who we delegate to represent the game and the country.

    Golf game on 12 ft. Snooker table.....Need Help!

    Get in there alone and practice two rail kisks to the 4 and out hole. Findsd a place on the wqall the mark where you are aiming and shate it with nobdy. Two raail kicks to the sides is criticaland can win lots of games.

    Hostile Conditions

    There is a saying that, " A game is only game if two people play"! So, once you confront anyone you are a part of the game and it only escalates. Some on the rail love attetion because it is theonly way they can contrigute to waht is going on. Learn to ignore them and not give them any credit...
