Mosconi Cup 2021 Day 2 Updates

They racking their own yet?
If there is still a ref racking, seems fishy.

Have the players ever racked their own in MC competition?

Don't think so, but, it's about time they start. It's already alternating participation, may as well let the arse kicking reach the moon.

 

[jokrswylde]

Good grief. SVB hits a super thin cut on the 2...no way to control whitey...and ends up stuck buried behind the 7...

Luckily hits a great kick and gets safe

 

[gxman]

can someone post the scores of day 1, with the actual score from each match.

 

[jokrswylde]

4-3 Shaw, but Shaw about to win...

 

[jokrswylde]

Shaw wins. SVB looks dejected. He is 0-2 this year already...

 

[SBC]

T- Minus 20 minutes!
So what do ya'll think will happen? If the US gets hot and wins the day 3-2, or even loses 2-3, I think I would consider that about as good as I could hope for and they are still right in the thick of things. Of course if they lose 1-4 or 0-5, it will be a big blow to their chances. I think the Euros will come out riding the momentum they built over the last two matches yesterday. The US will need to do something (golden break, limited errors, great safety play) to get big Mo back on our side.

I hope we put out our strongest players today.

Well that set didn't go our way.

of course he is, he is the one who put Earl on the team. It's like he lost his best bud when they refused to allow him to play

 

[TurboDraw]

Seems that SVB can never catch a break.. Lost a game off a beautiful break when whitey got kicked into the side. Nasty thin cut on the 2 that rolled up behind the 7.. sheesh.. I don't know how he keeps his spirits up.

 

[flmusclehead]

of course he is, he is the one who put Earl on the team. It's like he lost his best bud when they refused to allow him to play

Could he be thinking "let's get this sh*t sh*w over with"? I doubt it, but...

 

[kling&allen]

I don't recall so many empty seats in past years. Or was MR not allowed to fill the arena?

 

[jokrswylde]

Could he be thinking "let's get this sh*t sh*w over with"? I doubt it, but...

I mean, at this point, he could be. It is almost surreal how someone so good can have such poor results in one particular format...maybe he truly is snakebit when it comes to MC.

One thing to consider, he is kind of like 'Bama Football, he gets EVERYONE"S best effort. Everyone wants to beat SVB...

 

[jokrswylde]

Albin- 1 Sky -1

 

[BeiberLvr]

If this were to somehow come down to a deciding match. I really hope they put up Sky or Tyler

 

[jokrswylde]

Great safety battle ongoing in rack 3...

 

[calibration]

I cant stand watching these European panzies play their safety crap.

 

[jokrswylde]

Albin wins the safety battle and Sky is forced to bust open a cluster. Albin misses an easy shot. Skyler makes the shot but over runs position by 2 feet and gets on the 50 yard line of his next ball. Back to a safety battle

 

[loggerhead12]

Did Skyler just mis-identify the 4 ball? I know I did.

 

[jokrswylde]

Albin wins it again...hits a great jump shot and gets shape on the (not orange) 5. Albin misses ANOTHER easy shot and Sky gets out for a 2-1 lead...what a rack!

(again when a say "easy" I am talking in terms of the best players in the world...they are not hangers by any means.

 

[Fatboy]

What's up with the "Extension"

then the crowd goes wild screaming *exteeeeeeeeensioooooooon exteeeeeension*

I mean sorry but I don't get Europeans sometimes, is it supposed to be funny or something lol.

Euro humor is different than American humor.
