Wow. Glad I went back to the shop.
So the only match the US won today was the only match I did not watch.
If you want the US to win, send a handle of Sailor Jerry's to me ASAP and I will work all day tomorrow and not watch.
You're welcome. Just doing my part.

I was wrong. Only three matches played today, not four. SkySports and Matchroom need to make sure this stretches into four days.
What's weird is there was no closing commentary, no wrap up of the days event, nothing. Sky just moved on to the next show, something about the Ferrari racing team. I guess that's what this event deserves, a complete brush off. You have to wonder if Sky will continue to cover this event next year. The MC may be relegated to only streaming channels. It's just not good TV. It's like watching one pro team (pick a sport) bomb another team day after day. That would get boring pretty quick.
The MC has become a foregone conclusion before the first ball is hit. And there don't seem to be any prospects for that to change anytime soon. All the suggestions made in this thread will likely never come to pass and Team USA will only deteriorate further when Shane is gone. 11-2 and 11-3 looks like what we can expect to see year after year.

My description is more like......depressing.Today's play can only be described as...compelling. Yep that's it.
Mosconi is wishin someone would wipe his name of this trophy.
So..... If there is a comeback, and we get to 8-7, we're looking at 8 matches tomorrow. Awesome!
i was just joking, you are spot on. i know they're givin their all but man it just ain't clickin. at all.
I think this is a very proper summary. Not much else needs to be said.
So we win a match, get the momentum going for the good guys, and they shut it down for the day...dirty Brits...
More time to grab a taxi and head for the West End.
would you rather have a whole day canceled? 'Cause that was looking like a distinct possibility.
What if it goes hill-hill, i.e. 10-10 based on little calculation and unless I am horrible at math, then they would have to add one extra day, or play three or four extra matches in last day making last day filled with matches for a very long time, i.e. 8 matches in one night, would cruel for audience and players as well.
It's more likely to end something like 11-2 or 3. That's six or seven more matches over two days.

I’m just glad I got to go in 2019 and see a Team USA win. Might be the last ever?
That's it, call it the 'Unicorn Cup'
Dude, not even in jest.
