Honestly, I find it mysterious that shane has been underperforming in the MC. He definitely has rah-rah in him. However, he may needs more time to adjust to table, food, foreign country and what not than others. 9ball races to 5 or 6 under the spotlight of TV broadcast is more about break luck and nerves. Not necessarily the more gifted players wins.
As a European I obviously support the European team but I wish the MC would go closer. Having to cut the line-up in order to get to the final day is embarassing and the whole energy of the MC goes away. It needs to be close and tense. That is why the races are short. Actually, the format makes it entertaining and interesting for non-pool people.
I really hope the Americans get their act together. I am willing to lose if it gets hill:hill on the final day.
