    My name is Earl

    I think that misses the points that pool cues really are designed to hit pool balls, and not floors!

    Strikland Breaks His Cue - Mosconi

    I'm guessing no, not many people have played in that type of atmosphere, mainly because Strickland is the only one who actively goes looking to create that sort of atmosphere in the first place. The crowd were being respectful to Earl until Earl started to misbehave. They applauded a good...

    USA wins Mosconi Cup

    I'm not a gambler, but before the event, it was announced what would happen if it went 12-12.

    Efren's Performance in the '99 WPC- Best Ever?

    Davis won 7 in a row, but not through breaking and running out - those 7 racks included some inspired safety battles, with Davis coming out on top every time. As a Davis fan, that was the most amazing thing I ever watched. He'd barely scraped through the group stage of the WPC, and when I...
