Update on the Des Moines pool scene

I was only looking at the Main forum. Funny pics and WPC 2007-live internet coverage dates & times. For number of replies. Click on the replies at the top of the column and it will rank them.

Hey 420, who's the best younger player in Oklahoma?...I met some of those boys in Olathe and they all play extremely well. What the hell is going on in the OK state? Must be no women or something, JK!

Joey Gray, and maybe Chip Compton, from OKC. I don't know much about the scene in Tulsa anymore, but I've heard Shane McMinn is a monster.

And no, there are no women here. I imported mine. :D
 
Congrats to Jody for finishing well in Olathe this past weekend! Beating anyone in that tourney is tough, but beating John Hennessy is extremely hard to do. I heard Jody finished the best out of anyone from Des Moines? That is easy to believe, because I think Jody has more heart than most. I heard Frost did good too, which is cool! Mike A., not so good though. He needs to play more than once a week.
 
I put my Vcash on Shane. But haven't decided who to root for yet. Leaning towards Scott. Either way, it should be a great match.
 
This is the end of my bets for Scott -vs- SVB.

Man you get to free roll the match...no fair!!! Last night I wondered if I go off or not...it's a good question...I made it hill hill with the ghost last night and left...I had 3 early combos so that was whack. Anyways I have the beer shits this morning cuz I drink too much.
 
My take on this is the winner will be pool and Big Dog's.

Jeff Livingston

Smartest guess of the week. :thumbup:


Important pool news:
Geoff Rice is working on a combined league night for VNEA/BCA so you can play one night, pay like time and a half dues and get qualified for everything. Just a heads up for everyone from DSM who plays or is looking to play.

No he does not have a specific night yet.
 
Should be interesting. Any word yet on how the format will work out? I was suggesting playing a bigger version, to keep the 5 player teams for BCA. Isn't VNEA a 4 person team?

Wonder if they will let you pick your format -- I've played 3 man BCA teams that you play each person 2x. So I would guess that we could pick whatever format we wanted?

Hmmm

And ye$ - Big Dog$ $hould be a big winner$! Have road warriers started showing up yet? I see John Morra is over in the QC. Any forays into DM?
 
Ummm the pool room is hosting but let's be realistic on whether they will actually be the big winner. First of all no one knows exactly it is going to cost them to get the table up to snuff, set up equipment, bring rafters and seating in, bring on some extra staffing and other expenses they may incur. Also it's a known fact...pool players don't drink and eat all that much. They will do less of each when they think they may have some potential action lined up. I am yet to see anything more than internet ads on the event. We have no fliers going around or anything like that, home town people don't even know it's going on. more people here know Jeanette Lee is going to Stix and not Big Dogs for an exhibition type of deal. I hope people come out but I could see where this event could fall flat on its face from lack of promotion. The internet does not reach everyone!
 
Jeanette Lee is going to be at Stix?? When? What for? What's the deal?

Sounds like no one does much advertising... part of the problem in the pool world. We don't do much mainstream marketing.

I was thinking more in the customers of Big Dogs will be winners. Thinking back Jeff probably is thinking the other way. MY BAD :(

Is Jeanette Lee putting on a pool exhibition? All i ever do is stare at her (skill).
 
Oh yeah the customers definitely win, big time. I agree with that 100% Something cool to sweat, prolly will be some good action in the place also...I'll prolly have to take the 31st off of work either that or buy stock in 5 hour energys.

She's doing a whole great big exhibition/APA representative type of deal at Stix. She'll be coming like 1st week of August or so. I saw it in an APA packet or whatever and shook my head. Apparently Stix only affiliates with APA and Big Dogs has other leagues so Stix gets Jeanette Lee. That's gay!
 
Who wouldnt want to be a member of the best pool league in the country!!!

Hopefully I don't get toasty if I go and try to offer her the seven ball like I tried to do to Stephano Pelinga in Vegas. Fortunately my friends grabbed me before I got close enough to shout it out to him...
 
She probably wont be in action Spimp..you can sign up to whoop her though I'm sure...I'm gonna go beat her and see if she wants to go out for drinks!

Mikey, don't offer her the seven and a half again. You're sick. George might go Medieval on your a##.


PS, you'll never guess what I was doing when you called. Go ahead, just guess.
