Bobby

dont like this layout..refresh your page to change it :D Myspace Contact Tablesok well my name is Bobby Howard, i guess my nicknames i got growing up were Bobby Blue Eyes or Long Hair Bobby :D. i still have yet to get a pic where you can actually see my eyes, one of these days my broke ass will buy a camera and take some pics lol. i was born in jacksonville fla. and ive been living in bradenton for about 18 yrs now. i use to play pool leauge 3-4 nights a week but alot went on in the past few yrs and i stopped playing for about 2 yrs. on october 17 2006 my mother passed away from cancer and my whole world stopped turning. my mom was my last blood relative, she had no brothers or sisters, i have no brothers or sisters, my dad left when i was 2 and all my grandparents etc. have all passed away over the yrs. so yea i hit rock bottom really hard, but im recovering from my injury's and makin a come back in life. yes i was gonna end it all but couldnt go through with it so now i gotta just keep keepin on and get my life and true friends back.i started playin pool when i was about 5 yrs old, my mom was a bartender most of my childhood and she herself played pool in leagues so i picked it up at an early age.i didnt get serious about pool till i move to bradenton beach when i was about 18 yrs old.i played apa,bca and some in house leagues for a few yrs till i could play valley. my first year in valley league i played out of aces lounge my team took first in our division in the valley state tourney,yea it was the lowest division but it was my first year in a state tourney, i played 45 games total and i only lost 9 games. i played apa 8 ball and was ranked a 6 out of 7 for the first 2 yrs i played then went to a 7 and never seen 6 again. being a 7 in the apa league is real tuff anyone in apa knows what i mean,so i gave up apa and played bca and valley. between workin at livingstons and diamonds billiards for 2 yrs each plus playin in pool leagues, ive had the honor of meeting johhny archer,allison fisher,efren reyes,tommy kennedy,jennifer barretta,dave pearson,charlie williams,corey penrod and i also played tommy kennedy in a race to 5 on big tables when he did an exhibition at livingstons and out of 15 people that played him i was the only one to beat him 5-4 in a race to 5. stevie knoll raced tommy to 11 and lost 11-6. i can say i have beaten everyone i listed but tommy was the only race others were just games here and there. theres alot of good pool players in the sarasota/bradenton area, i mean alot. at our florida state tourneys, our area is about 75% of the turn out (i could be wrong but its gotta be close)so the competition here is real tuff. it makes me play smarter and a better player all around.
