    Jayson Shaw draws the cue ball into the nine, 4-2 Euro. He's rubbing it in now!

    2-2 now. What a great match! :p On a more realistic note, those two excellent safeties by Jayson and David on the two ball, and the subsequent run out only emphasized the superiority that Team Europe has shown all week.

    Europe got lucky and won a game, 2-1 USA. :cool:

    Another excellent nine ball by Styer! It's 2-0 now USA. We've got them on the ropes!

    Great shot on the nine ball by Styer! He stayed down on the ball and made a good follow through. Put that one on video. What a player! ;)

    No, No, definitely no Straight Pool. That would be unfair to Team USA. :LOL:

    Just tuned in to see the last few games of Pijus and Billy. Only more grief added to what we've already been watching the last three days. It's like watching a slow execution taking place. I'll be glad when this one is over and done, and we can begin looking forward with new hope to next year...

    Emily did a good job of explaining the objectives of Matchroom in terms of producing pool tournaments. And offering that the MC is unique, which it is. One point that I'm glad she made is that these ten guys are the ones out there in the arena, exposing themselves to the whole world, with all...

    For those who say this is just an "exhibition," I say that's totally false. The MC is a real match with real emotions and a lot on the line. The money involved is just a perk. Both teams want badly to win, that is a certainty. Skyler may make light of it but his emotional investment in the MC...

    He was very nervous on that nine ball and relieved when it went in.

    There was one 9 Ball break yesterday. Forget which match.

    I haven't been watching yet today. Can't believe what I'm reading about Tyler's match though. This poor guy needs to take two weeks off and then quit!

    I like our chances in match #11. I make Shane a slight favorite. If the other matches go according to form the score would be 9-2 at that point in time. Then Matchroom/Sky could cancel match 12 and we could start talking about a miracle comeback on Day Four. I'm sorry to be so blunt but there is...

    You're right, it won't happen.

    Tyler also cost us a point on that missed nine ball in the team match. It was even easier than the missed shape on the two rail position. That's a four point swing on those two matches! Making just those two shots alone and the score would be Euro 4, USA 3 right now. Tyler's game looks like it...

    How about any 600 or above Fargo? I haven't shot any pool in a year and I would empty my pockets betting I can get out from there, with a house cue! And so would most of the guys/gals posting on here. I want to say one more thing about that shot. The nine is in such an ideal position (very...

    It was an easy shot either way and he dogged it. He had already made the hard shots in the rack. Let's get real and quit making excuses for him.

    Shane seemed resigned to his fate once again. He knows he will never win the MC with the current supporting cast.

    It's more likely to end something like 11-2 or 3. That's six or seven more matches over two days.
