Mosconi Cup 2012 Day (4) Discussion

This is going to be an exciting finish to this event. Melling and NVB are going to be sweating it. Shuff can freewheel. I think they'll make him aware of that.

The pressure IMO has squarely shifted to the Europeans.
 
WOW SVB jars the hole. Gives Apple a shot, and Apple runs the cue to long for a scratch. BIH SVB. And he gets out. 4-1
 
Also FWIW I don't think it's a bad idea if the announcers are fans for one side or the other. Just don't be jerks about it.
 
I don't consider my opponent scratching as getting a good roll.. I say that they did not do something right, JMHO..

With that said, we (Team USA) have gotten some tasty jelly a time or two today! We needed it to get the ball rolling!
 
U.S.A., U.S.A., U.S.A. So far so good today. Don't stop now, Team America.
 
horrid roll for daz.

Shane is in a delicate situation where he barely can shoot through a two-ball-sized gap on the three, and must cheat the pocket to pound the cue ball to draw back to the head of the table. He overcheats it, rattles and hangs it, but daz is forced to kick the hanger from the head of the table. It's a straightforward kick where you spin out three rails for shape but daz hits it a hair thin and never catches the third rail... scratching in a corner at the head of the table. A couple of millimeters fuller or thinner on the 3, and he's absolutely fine.
 
Sometimes you're the bug and sometimes you're the windshield.

Lady Luck and some good play. Ah yes, that is sure a sweet combination.
:love:

USA = Windshield

I agree... Letting whitey get away on that shot is a mistake, not a roll.
 
Wow, the pool gods are smiling on the U.S. so far today. Still gonna be tough for Shuff and Dechaine though.
