If you could... Who would you send against the Euro juggernaut? There are no rules, you can resurrect players from the past. Just note what year you would yank them from the past to be part of your Mosconi Cup dream team.

Here is mines:
Buddy Hall (captain) 1984
Harold Worst 1965
Vernon Elliott 1975
Jim Rempe 1987
Luther Lassiter 1960

Keith McCready :grin-loving:
Ronnie Allen
Alex Pagulayan
Jimmy Mataya
Larry Lisciotti

Team Captain: Minnesota Fats
 
Team Phillipines

Idk if I would consider the euro team as juggernauts. They are good for the modern era but I believe any team from the Philippines or China/taiwan would be even money or better vs team Euro.

All-time Dream Team playing the Mosconi format.

Buddy Hall
Mike Segal
Earl Strickland
Efren Reyes
Johnny Archer

All in their primes of course.

But I can think of a handful of other teams that i Think would be a favorite.

Current players
Team Pinoy

Alex Pagulyan
Francisco Bustamante
Ronnie Alcano
Dennis Orcullo
Lee Van Corteza
Alt. Carlo Biado

Team Chinese Taipei
Wu Chia Ching
Yang Chin Shun
Chang Jun Lin
Ko Pin Yi
Fu Che Wei

Then again if Team Euro were to tweak their line up to:
Ralf Souquet
Mika Immonen
Darren Appleton
Thorsten Hohmen
Neils Feijen

This could go on and on... Why do we start these threads lol
 
Efren reyes- 1990
Jimmy fusco-1990
Allen hopkins-1990
Shane van boeining- 2012
Alex pagulyian- 2011
 
Buddy Hall (no explanation necessary)
Harold Worst (his three-cushion ability would make him an absolute BEAST with today's rules, which is why he's the only player from that era on my list)
Johnny Archer (in his prime, that break was decisive)
SVB (again, that break! Further, his three U.S. Open wins against tougher fields than those in the 80's and 90's, puts him on the list)
Nick Varner (probably the best competitor on the list! Nobody has had a run like Varner's in '91 or so where he just about win everything, and he has absolutely no quit in him!)
 
Alex Pagulyian.
John Morra.
Jason Klatt.
Paul Potier.
Luc Salvas.

Cliff Thorburn as captain :-)
 
I would just go with my current 8 ball league team. If it's an event like the Mosconi cup, we would have a shot.

Darren Everett
Dave Hathman
Russ Dameron
Steve Langiano
Andy Craig
and myself.

We could draw straws to see who pretends to be captain.

These guys are all friends and used to playing together. Whether or not we won would be less important than sharing such an experience with friends.
 
Bar Table

We all know Matlock is Thee Given, whom are the other four?

Rempe, Sigel, Varner and of course our two American Efren's....Worst and Eddie Taylor. Liscotti as Sub :) JIC

No way! Fats has to play!!! You need the hams on the table :D

Fats
McCready
Strickland
Shane
Puckett [the dark horse, he was a grizzly under pressure]

Captain is Lassiter


Would be a real slugfest, a US team of that assembly would be near-unbeatable in the firepower department, lots of showmanship.

In their respective primes, I'd take Sigel, Lassiter, Parica, Hall and Varner.

... and they'd get a serious run for their money from Team Europe.
