Once again it's the scariest time of the year. BOO!!

With all the news about pool halls closing I tought I would give a bit of good news. The Anchorage Billiard Palace will reopen in a few months. One of the original owners that opened it in 1988, Sue Griffin (Mark's ex) has purchased a building and is in the process of remodeling it for a pool...

I heard through the grapevine Williebetmore was writing an instructional book primarily focused on the shadier side of the game. I contacted his publisher to find out when I could get a copy and they provided me a sample of what we can expect. I can’t wait to see what the rest of the book...

Since we are all tuned into our vision I’ll share an experience that might help someone. Pool league was where I really noticed it. About 8-10 months ago my vision had deteriorated to the point that at age 49 I had to get corrective lenses for distance in addition to reading glasses I already...

I ran across these the other day. Even though my memories are a bit fuzzy from that time, I’m pretty sure I did not play in the tournament that Jimmy Reid won and Mark Wilson took second.To the best of my recollection these must have come from a qualifier at college. Anyone else getting ready...

I assume Willie is out celebrating with James Irsay and Tony Dungy. I have no doubt with all his pro friends he was the man behind the scene today in Miami, but soon I expect he will be back in touch with our billiard community. I was just at the grocery store getting some football snacks...

I posted this in the DCC thread but what the heck there are art lovers here too Rick does such a fantastic job with his sketches of the top players as a Photoshop user I got interested in trying my hand at producing a sketch myself. I wanted ensure I had a subject that complemented my skill...

Rick does such a fantastic job with his sketches of the top players as a Photoshop user I got interested in trying my hand at producing a sketch myself. I wanted ensure I had a subject that complemented my skill level at Photoshop so I choose Williebetmore showing his game face in the AZB room...

Once again Williebetmore has displayed his true character and is in full view for all to see. The single most important point about the match that took place is... I am not three jellybeans short on my end!! ...he stole 997 jellybeans from me off the light!!! As soon as he had a minuscule...

Looks like Willie thinks he belongs on the TV table. What kind of cue is that Willie? I’ve never heard of a “spear”. Security!

Due to circumstances beyond my control this year I am reading this poem myself. Grant me the serenity to accept the fact I am a spineless, gutless blowhard; courage to recognize those that aren’t; and wisdom to appreciate players with game. Cuz I won’t be able to post any scores this year...

This will be a conversation piece in a few years

The season of giving is here. Make this the year you reach out to someone that has never been on your shopping list before. Every pool room has that special monkey that just begs for the gift of a Williebetmore accessory. With this in mind for the holiday season breakup industries will be...

I the past we referred to those individuals that fail to participate merely as “non-participants”. This is a general category and needs to be refined somewhat. As an aid to distinguish between these sub groups I propose a rating system, the “Panty Waste Index” or PWI HIGHEST PWI PWI 3 =...

Last year at this time who could have imagined a fledgling internet virtual pool competition called the Drivermaker Memorial Holiday Tournament would in one short year rival the IPT in terms of prize funds. Just think …it’s free to participate, no expensive qualifiers required, no dress code...
