We hope you can join us tonight at 9 PM eastern. Podcast will be uploaded to youtube for on demand viewing late Thursday/early Friday.
 
Ask her if she sees anyone coming up that might some day take her title
of 'Nicest Person on Earth' ?
 
One thing I'd love to see when you move the interviews to the table....

Have them break a rack and walk us through their thinking about how they're going to attack the layout. What do they look for first? Work they're way back from the 10-ball?

I hear a lot about "patterns" in 9- and 10-ball but I really don't know much about it. It would be great to have a pro describe it with live examples. They don't have to play out the rack; just knowing how they're going to approach it would be helpful.
 
I have an old Mezz...pre-LD shafts.....it has a white joint that hits BETTER
than a one-piece cue.
Are there going to be more lines with this joint material...mine's a plain-jane
and I would like more style selection.

Thanx, Justin, for what you do.
 
Ask her if she would consider dating a large white guy that owns the premier pool action streaming company in the world?
 
I second what Nostroke said; she really is one of the nicest ppl in Pool.


from Eric_in_Joysee:

Caroline, what has changed since your days in the WPBA and what would be two things they should go back to doing?

Justin, I would like to know how will the racking go for TAR 31. Will they be playing rack their own, loser racks? What type of rack will be used? It would be great for a neutral racker for this match. It's tough to watch players touching the rack after the rack is off the table to set the balls, both of them seem to do this a lot.
 
I think Caroline did an episode or two of Jim Murnak's "Sharks" webisodes what was that like as an experience?

On AZ there's often threads about LD shafts and sometimes they are specifically about the different MEZZ shafts, could Caroline take a few minutes to talk about the different characteristics of the various Mezz performance shafts.

We see a lot of innovations coming from Predator, BK3, Predator Chalk, Predator Tips, Predator 3 piece jump cue etc... Is there something like that in the works for Mezz? What can we expect from them?
 
A question for Mark Griffin:

A Mr Christopher Mulenga, Director of Billiards in Zambia, Africa would like to host a world pool tournament in Africa and is seeking help in doing so. Is there anything CSI in conjunction with TAR can do to assist him?

(If answering this on air is inappropriate, please send me a PM at FB. I have all his contact information to include a phone # if needed.)

Yeah ditto that.
 
I have broke with the Mezz Power Break II and found it to be the best break cue on the market, it is also the shortest one I have used at I am guessing 56 inches. Why was this break cue made shorter then the standard 58 inches and does it translate to a better break cue?
 
Caroline is one of the nicest people in the industry and has amazing customer service. She goes out of her way on my orders and in answering all my questions.

I'd like to know a little bit about how she got started playing pool and how that eventually led to her owning Mezz.

I'd also like to know when they are going to start sponsoring me. :wink:
