Screw ESPN, I had this recorded as I was going to be out for a while, of course ESPN switched it to another channel 3/4 the way through... now I had to read about how it ended here. (which I'm thankful you guys do a pretty good job covering the tournament, thanks all). This isn't the first time ESPN has done this! Why can't they put the other programming on a different channel!

I didn’t like it either but pool will always lose out to college football unfortunately. The pool hall I was at had ESPN U fortunately and a lot of us were watching on our phones on the WNTTV website.

I started after that, learned by trial and error, and wasted literal decades of my life working 10X as hard for half the results.

The fundamentally sound players of today would trounce the top players of the 80s given a time machine. Earl, Sigel, Hall could hang, but pretty much all the others would get steamrolled by even the 50th best player today.

Thorpe is exactly what most top players of then would look like if magically transported to today's game. A talented player, fighting an uphill battle against poor mechanics, and ultimately just an also-ran.

Didn't 65-year-old Earl just beat a top world player a couple day's ago?

Was a bit odd hearing Emily announce on camera that maybe it’d be nice to have a Texas Open. Like was that just stream of conscious talk for expanding the US WNT without vetting her thoughts? Or a more serious threat to compete with the existing event’s identity? Or even Jeremy brokering her interest to buy out the event like they did with the US Open?

Maybe WNT buys out the name “Texas Open” and the existing event gets the Intl Open treatment and is renamed the YeeHaw Classic
