European douche bags

Europe has a history of loyalist traditions.
America has more freedoms.

Euros have been oppressed much longer and it shows. Calling them douches is unfair because they were systematically forced to be that way.

what a load of gobbelygook.

austria, germany has been free democratic republics for 70 years, UK a democracy since 1800:s (not counting women sufferage but neither do americans). so no, there are no socio-historical roots for these players behaviors. MC is, by its tribalistic nature, an event that always will bring about trash talk and hot emotions.

When slavery ended a long future of racial discrimination follows.

Europeans call themselves a union but One country is causing problems for everyone.

Its clear which group in Europe is not getting enough support.

Simply put one success story from Europe does not scale to others. In America we create success and others follow those footsteps.

I am nicely saying euros are discriminatory without knowing it.

you wrote euros have been oppressed. which they haven't been in recent times. the one country causing problems atm isn't in the union and your nonsense is bordering on NPR.

Here we go, another one of the "everything is always everybody else's fault" types. Newsflash, the sole person in control of your behaviors and actions is you, so whenever your behavior or actions are out of line the only person at fault--and solely at fault--is you.
 
wasn't that hatch?
I remember Hatch refusing to shake (maybe Filler's hand)...possibly it was Filler's 1st ever MC? Also remember that every time Hatch won, he would do the old double biceps flex. I don't remember anyone ever having a problem with him...
It got a little frisky at the after party as well. Emotions were definitely high that year.
So was it Hatch pizzed at Filler like I am remembering? What happened at the after party? I'm not sure Hatch is the one you want to antagonize....

My buddy who went to this year‘s MC, said he met and had a long conversation with Dennis, who was there, and that he’s a super nice guy.

Totally agree on Hatch, he is a big lad.
No one came to blows at that after party, but there was definitely a lot of testosterone and animosity in the air. There was certainly a lot of posturing and chests pumped out from a couple of opposition players.
 
Picture Efren playing in the Mosconi Cup. What kind of demeanor would he show? maybe a little fist pump and quips "I'm just lucky"
 
I know Jayson very well. He is a great person, husband, and father. He will give you the shirt off his back without hesitation. He is funny and doesn't take himself seriously at all. As an example, here is a quick story.

Back in January of 2021, he ran a 10 ball pro-am tournament at his pool room. I don't remember how many players were entered but the place was packed. I played in the tournament (well, I made a donation to the prize pool lol) and my girlfriend came with me to watch. About 6 hours or so in, she asked me to order her a cheeseburger. Jayson was in between matches so he was behind the bar taking orders. He takes my order and says he will bring it over. About 40 minutes go by and no cheeseburger. I go back over to the bar and he looks at me and goes 'OH F***"! He totally forgot but took care of it right away. No big deal because we all thought it was funny. Fast forward a couple of hours later. I had just gotten knocked out and realized I hadn't eaten all day. He's walking by after finishing up his match and asks if he can get us anything and I order cheeseburger. He thought I was kidding at first but I assured him that this one was for me. 45 minutes go by and no cheeseburger. As I get up to go place the order again with Ara or Sue (Ara's mom), he's walking towards me. He saw me, smacks his forehead with his hand, turns around, and starts my order. He forgot mine too! To this day it's a running joke with us.

His public persona is the complete opposite of who he really is and it pisses me off that people take him so seriously that they would attack him, Ara and their family.
So do I.

And this post is spot on.

He doesn’t take himself too seriously. He takes his biz seriously and he’s a winner.

I have nothing bad to say about him. He’s a fun guy to be around or just watch from the rail.

To have moved here, set up shop, created a successful career are all the traits of a winner. I’m not gonna knock that. Takes guts, patients, work, discipline, and he ain’t mad at the world like some pool players.

All good with me

If we converted pool to MMA, Hatch would be my pick against the field.

I haven’t seen him in a few years, and I saw him this last week at Mcup. We have always got along well. He looked great! He’s on his A game in life right now. I’m triple happy for him. We had a nice conversation. He’s doing great, looked great-hasn’t aged a day in a few years.

Was super happy to see him, Mrs Fatboy as well, they get along very well. What I like about Hatch is he’s pure. There’s no bullshit with him.

maybe for an inaugeral efren reyes cup!

both MC teams have had those kind of characters, such as souquet, varner and bergman. and i think they are needed. to have all big-ego, boisterous guys in a team can be counterproductive.

Absolutely, need a line up of different personalities to make it interesting. A bunch of dry guys is no good, a bunch of clown might be worse. A blend is best in any event pool or otherwise. Putting them on mute is the real mistake
