    Observational question from watching some of the Mosconi cup

    The camera work is pretty good with lots of close-ups. I keep noticing when they show their tips they are playing with tips that looked to be in many cases just a few millimeters thick. Used to be tips were commonly almost a quarter of an inch thick. Is this the new thing? They also seem to cue...

    Miz on David Letterman from 1984

    It just popped up on my YouTube. I don't know how but maybe somebody can post a link to it. While on the subjects, I was wondering why more pool players don't get themselves on talk shows.

    Slow play by pros

    I'm watching this tournament Battle of the bull and I'm kind of mystified by the incredible slow play by the professionals. They seem to stand over shots walk back and forth for no reason and take forever to play obvious position play. The more I watch the more it seems to be almost all of the...

    One of Danny's favorite movies

    Just laying here watching Tubi and I found Hard Times is on it the list of movies. I used to have Hard Times on cassette and Danny DiLiberto used to ask me to put it on almost every time he came in. He liked old movies like Casablanca and so on but I think his favorite contemporary movie was...

    DiLiberto face book

    There are a few new postings on Danny Ds. facebook. It looks like he's probably in a nursing facility again and it doesn't look too good. I think that's probably his daughter there with him and he talks a little bit he's on camera.

    The Ladies of pool, where are they now?

    Was just watching a match from the 1990 US Open between Varner and Siegel. In the course of the match because the women were playing alongside there was quite a bit of mention by Grady Matthews and Buddy Hall about the women players. I tried doing some googling and couldn't find much in...
