I don't have any interest in dumping on the Americans, but we all know that score line would have been far more competitive IF some rudimentary shots weren't handled poorly. That's not to say they would have won the event if those situations had gone as they should. Just that the chatter on...

Speaking as a Canadian with maple syrup running through my veins. Adding John and Alex into the mix wouldn't change anything. Sure the team would be stronger by replacing Billy and Tyler, but that's about it. No where near enough to be competitive.

pot ;)

meh... "sport" has a definition imo. Doesn't matter where in the world it's played or how hard the spectators from those regions hug the nuts of the players. Will always be a game, no different than darts

Wow... I agree with you. Looks like the 2025 Mosconi did amount to something note worthy

Forget about 'team'. I'm more entertained by the notion of 'sport'....lol

We could save a bunch of time if the admins bumped last year's thread and changed the date in the title. If it weren't for Shaw's antics. Would anyone bother watching anymore..? Can everyone else also envision the Mosconi without Shaw these days.? It would be a bunch of emotionless Euro...

Is this bias on actual reality...? I've owned a Z2 for decades that has the original ferrule and I've beaten on that cue with reckless abandon and experienced zero problems. I also currently play with a non-laminate LD shaft from Mezz that also has the shaft drilled out. No problems there...

Guess it this, or threads on which tip hits the best...

I do get a kick out of how slashes performed by the pros are defaulted as exceptional choices and execution. Anyone consider what happens if he clips that 8 ball...? Not the first time we've seen Biado swinging with excessive action and coming out smelling like a rose.

CJ is a world champion... There I said it. I'll be back in a week to collect my hate ;)

I rarely use it, but I do carry a 3sec

You're implying an honour system. Which then of course falls flat on its face once you consider we're talking about pool players. Let alone league level pool players. What's the point in ramping up the rules to all ball if the only way to have it enforceable is to have a impartial ref watch...

On a separate note... does anyone know if AZB either has or the website os contains the ability to ignore posts that contains user specific words. This thread would be 1/3rd the read if we could ignore all the useless comparisons and discussion with golf.

I think any competent player would embrace all ball fouls. All it would accomplish is further increasing the divide between the wheat vs the chaff. Typical league rules aren't about making the game easier. It's just another layer to the handicapping onion weak players enjoy. Of course this...
