There's too many threads to sift thru to find an appropriate place to post my unobstructed ;) view of the last Cup day of '13, and whatever I perceive to have seen. There was so much going down, it's impossible for me to fully describe. I won't apologize for the length of this one. (It could be longer...)

OMFG

As I sit in bed at the Mirage, at whatF'g am it is, room service beckons. FOOD, YAY!

Had a candid discussion with Barry H (foot boot on and all) outside when it was 10 - 2. Cup changes appear imminent...

Before the mayhem... Someone, I wonder who ;), got Michaela's and K Shu's white ref gloves. Michaelas were signed and ummm - personalized.

So we went to our room after MVP Neil's dropped the case ball for the 11 - 2 massacre. Freshened with ice water, breath mints and Kleenex.

So... It all moved to the Beatles Love Lounge at Mirage (ironic name, eh?).

1st round at Love: UUUUURup!

2nd round: UUUUUUURup!!!!

Lou, Pinky, Cuebuddy and I were in mourning there, yet happy for team Urup. It was jubilant.

We'd callled Hatch's room and encouraged him to attend.

Good gracious, besides the entire Euro team, there were so many in attendence.

Then it got progressively twerky after each round was served. Brits have no quarrel grabbin yo sh1t and laughing in your face (with you).

Hatch spilled his 2 cents on the meaning of "team", with all Euro ears nodding in agreement.

First to claim a BAC over .2 was Mika. He was f'g hilarious (and rather happy). Daz, who was not far behind Mika's BAC, was holding him up, lower lip leading the way. Boyes got a little chippy - Hatch was none too happy with that.

Michaela tried to ref, but she had no gloves, she was off the clock.

Jay tried to ref too. To no avail.

Jayson tried to ref. Nuh uh.

After all the brown suits showed, kisses and hugs ensued, and world order :cool: was restored. Lots of head rubbing (most of ém bald, wtf?)

Then Mrs Tabb took exception to a funny, pool schooled chap (Scott?) proclaiming there was cut breaking going on and why didn't she call it. She has a full vocabulary. Pool chap crawfishes. Then pool chap shakes my paw on a $100 bet that Johann has truly coached his last Cup.

Lou was now long gone :( . But not before the lovely Angel Levine had taken us to her room where she shows us her ... laptop. Shows us some cool raw footage of a documentary she's working on. With hopes at the Sundance Festival upcoming in Utah. Thanks Angel - passion for pool epitimized. Lou, you're more fun in person than I'd have thought. :thumbup:

Jay then proclaims his More Pool Wars book is imminent. :thumbup:

People at this point were making less sense than a kindergardner overdosed on Butterfingers and NyQuil. Maybe I'll remember more after some coffee.

There was far more action at the Love lounge than the arena. Might take me a few therapy sessions to get over it.

Since it took me 5 hours to compose this (may have slept a few of them), I can''t wait to either go back to sleep or see what pic's have been posted. Might have been 1000 pic's and vids taken. Easily.

Cheerio,

Matt

I'm going back to bed. lol

We ALL get the day off (unfortunately).

Gonna be some action later. Dudes were popping off like crazy last night. There's a meet at the BB arena shortly (LC ++). Afterwhich some of us might be mad at our money. I suspect it's @ to get even more funky tonight (if that's possible). Good thing Jay has to go home, else I'd be after his lunch money. ;) But perhaps Lou didn't spend all his on his steak last night. :grin-square:
 
Matt

I assume those gloves were worn?

Sealed plastic baggies are in order.

Good job.

Kevin
 
thx for the report.

more details on he de-gloving pls.

no, not ken's!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek: :grin-square: :eek:

sounds like y'all are making lemonade from that mosconi lemon.

have a blast - keep safe.

push comes to shove, Angelo Dundee said hatch has a glass jaw.

I know, it's a big climb up to that chin but you can take him. :wink:

best,

Thanks for the trip report. Appreciate it! :cool:

Is it true Karl and Dennis got in a fist fight last night?

Now that's a cool write up. Explains it all without insult :thumb up:

I've chilled in the same bar and I could almost touch the vibe - thank you!
 
The Americans don't deserve a party. They deserve to be publicly flogged. This was an embarrasment of epic proportions and makes me ashamed to say I'm an American pool player. JMHO.

Tim Honey, i don't know what/where Team USA was. in the past, they've gone back @ their rooms. or maybe they were @ Cosmo? or maybe they hopped a plane home?

and i don't know this, cause

WE WERE THROWING-DOWN WITH TEAM EUROPE & BEING GOOD SPORTS

(same as we did @ 2011)

Judging from the score, I'm guessing Team USA was doing their impression of a monkey f***ing a football.

I know who throws the funner parties - the winners ! ! ! ! :grin-square:

best,
brian kc <--- yes, "funner"
 
Send those gloves to me and I'll sell them on eBay and donate 100% of the proceeds (after processing fees, handling charges, admin costs, stocking fees, eBay fees, and promotional costs) FOR THE KIDS.

If you don't send them to me YOU ARE BAD FOR POOL

and most probably WHAT"S WRONG WITH POOL

Send tracking as soon as you have it.

Thanks

Kevin
 
Never miss the after party. Silly American team. Come to the party and wash away the tears with liberal amounts of alcohol. Been to several and bitter enemies on the pool table are I-Love-You-Man best friends with the help of Jack and Jose.

Sounds like an awesome time for all.

You couldn't be more right John, IMO of course, lol. Euro's are ... not just happy, but have always been good sports, and good chaps in my many experiences.

As I sit here (it's my thread and once again have been perfectly served.)

I offer this...

We went downstairs under the auspices of having one drink with Lou. While waiting, ran into Johnny, Melanie, Lee and Lee Anne. :)

Sat down with Lou. Played some video gaming. Lee Brett popped into the High Rollers Lounge. Spirited discussion ensued. More than one libation consumed. We cured all of pool's problems.

Then... Lou, Pinky and I leave that bar. There was another bar on the way to the elevator. I begged us not to go through it. To no avail. Lou will attest.

In that lounge (same as last night) there were a few culprits. Let's call ém Mika, Daz, Angie, Nella, and a # of Euor's whom we met, but forget how to pronounce their name. Sean of SkySports is a hugger and wears way too much cologne. He was awesome all week. :) All the Euoros were. Again.

5 hours to flight home. Showering it off. Room service. Twas almost a perfect week.

Awesome week.

Ya'll should experience a Cup if you hadn't, over any other event Next year it's on US soil will be different... Watch and listen - (not trying to be a dick - but it's in the air)
 
hey -

i saved us 4 steps by cutting through the bar! the fact that Darren cost us 40 mins IS NOT ON ME!!!!

;)
"SEE YOU @ 12 MONTHS @ BLACK HALL"

the Brits/Euros are cool.
and if we miss our flight tomorrow - it is ENTIRELY Lou's fault!!!!

(thanks, Lee, for divulging THE SECRET OF POOL)
- PINK

Are you saying that next year, the Mosconi Cup will be on U.S. soil again? :)

Thanks for the trip report. :)

You can sleep on the flight home. ;)
