I dunno, Rudnicki can be pretty nasty when he's on...no matter who is on the other side of the table.

That is true. It was a close match - Mark put Garret in the losers bracket earlier, but they almost came back for the double dip. It was an interesting dynamic. Mark scored on Ryan easily, but Ryan scored a lot of points from the back with his supersonic pull shot.

Not sure. He doesn't normally come to the tournaments. He's a friend of Rudnicki's I guess.

Yes sir, that is correct. We have a DYP every Tuesday, and BYP on the last Tuesday of the month. It's a bit of a drive, but I'd love to have you come and check it out.

I have a bit of an ulterior motive, I must admit. I can't block your shot for anything, and I'd like to get some practice learning how to play better D.

Your D is pretty good Steve. Espicially for your level of play. Can be tough to score on you at times.

I'm really impressed with how deep you hit the corners and how consistent you are with it. How much practice did it take to get to that level of consistency? Were you drilling hours a day on the table for months, years? Or did it come more naturally and develop quickly? It seems like you have a high level of natural ability, that spiderman thing of seeing everything in slow motion.

I've practiced my roller some over the years. Fine tuning it and tweaking it as needed. They say ive got natural ability as a second generation fooser. I'd attribute my level of play to some of that, my family all plays great, but not without a great deal of practice, fine tuning details and lots of experience testing my skills against other many great foosers in Colorado.

Most likely, yes. But there is a slight possibility it could get canceled (like if the bar decides to close). I'll check on it and let you know.

That's really cool. Did you start playing as a little kid?

I played growing up, but didn't really start practicing and playing tournaments until about 2006 or 2007.
