She was a sweet lady. RIP

In one of Mosconi's instructional videos he says ( in reference to "grip"): "....in gripping this thing, you do not grip it like a baseball bat or a golf club, it [the butt] should be held very loosely in the hand, so loosely that when you're swinging this thing, it will have the tendency to...

I need to find out more about this Mosconi ball for an important television project. Specifically which company produced it and when? Was it a part of a set etc?

Good stuff Bob, thank you Hoppe was starting to look like Anthony Hopkins or maybe an old John Lithgow lol

It is what it is. A contest between party A and party B. The classic tale of rivalry. The team doesn't matter, the reason doesn't matter. It's us versus them is all that matters. And we be us, so go us

I have good Mosconi footage and a lot of it. After a while you start to notice that Willie had somewhat fidgety hands. His hands had a mind of their own and were almost constantly making minute adjustments to his grip at any given time. Not large adjustments but small subtle ones, which...

Good work Tate Interestingly enough, Herman's daughter was married to the Pranno family. Have a gander at their family history in Chicago organized crime. Fortunately the Pranno that Loretta married was not directly involved in mob activity, but I can easily see Herman's name being passed...

The good thing about antique tables is that most of them (from the better companies) are built very sturdy, and they are typically more aesthetically pleasing than the average table today. But, unfortunately, most antique tables were built to a slightly different set of specs than tables today...

Top notch pool equipment should be provided to every citizen of the u.s. who asks for it, paid for by the u.s. government department of Homeroom Security. We'll call it the Poolbama Care Act
