I have been reading some of the threads on here about the Mosconi Cup. We have lots of support meaning the U.S. Team. Europe is tough and we have definitely have to show up to win but we're far from being huge underdogs. IMO Darren Appleton is the best player for Team Europe but I also think we have the best player in the world right on our side SVB.

Mark Wilson: Probably knows more about the game than anyone on our team and has been playing longer than any of us have been alive. I know for fact every one on our team and even most top players respect his opinions on and off the table.

SVB: What can you say about him. Only the best rotation player in the world right now for my money.

Justin Hall: Derby City All Around Champion and almost won it back to back. Tons of heart and doesn't play all the big events and still wins more than his share. My boy we got way back since we were 10.


Corey Deuel: most experienced player on our team. I've played him a lot learned a lot just watching him. Sees shots top players don't even look at. Very creative. One of US top 9 ball players for a long time.

John Schmidt: Only ran 400 balls 3 times in straight pool. Like 5 people in history have done that. U.S. Open 9 ball winner. He's a great team player and gets along good with everyone on our team.

Me: I promise you all I am practicing playing tournaments trying to play tough games to be ready for this this year. I can guarantee you I want to win this as bad as anyone. I'll do whatever it takes to make sure I am 1000% ready to come time to play.

I think it's going to be the best Mosconi Cup yet. And the more support we have the more that's gonna fire us up. I GUARANTEE we will give 100%. Whatever happens happens but we don't think we're underdogs.

Thanks everyone that has our back we won't let you down. By the way this is Justin Bergman. Let's go USA!

Good to hear from you J.
Bring the cup home for us alright?
Best of luck to ya. :cool:
 
So glad to see a MC team member jumping on AZ. Welcome aboard, Bring that cup home where it belongs !!:happydance:
 
Like you, Justin, I think Team USA has a very good chance to bring home the Mosconi Cup.

I admire you for the kind words you wrote about your teammates, but we all know what you're capable of, too. In 2014, you looked rock solid at Derby City, topped a remarkable field at Hard Times in the late winter, and played some great pool at the US Open last month. You even bested your Mosconi teammate John Schmidt in 14.1 at the Dragon World 14.1 event in August.

Travel safely, play well, and enjoy the experience in Blackpool. Good luck to you and all of Team USA.
