And even further down the chain, I’m often envious of the dart league players who are done with all their matches while our pool league play has “just” started.
Matchroom runs the main darts pro format (pdc) so I have confidence they can transfer some of that skill to pool.
Darts is a great example. Maybe if pool had a Luke Littler, fun crowds, and matches that last under 15 minutes it could get the money that darts brings in.
I would like to see a challenge match where earl’s opponent is forced to wear 15lb ass weights, 3in shoe lifts, a weighted glove, and use a 25oz cue that measures 2.5in at the butt.
Apparently the streaming platform that Matchroom is paying for is using a 15 year old plugin. The reason why Matchroom would select such a terrible streaming platform for wnt is another question given that a 2 minute google search on WNT would deter any business from having anything to do...
Matchroom’s social media feeds are flooded with comments about these streaming failures and how to report credit card charges from wnt tv as fraudulent.
