Mosconi cup and bonus ball
- Thread starter pro9dg

I don't think you have to worry about it. When given a choice, I'm sure 100 percent of the players would choose the long-established Mosconi Cup over Bonus Ball at this juncture.
This is a good example of why pool entities need someone on their staff to do research to prevent conflicts such as this. How could the Bonus Ball people be so neglectful in this regard? Sheesh!
I hope Earl Strickland makes the Mosconi Cup. Oh, man, it will be pure pool gold to see him running rack after rack, spanking those Euros into a coma. :grin:
The Mosconi Cup will have a couple of our players and they will be replaced by alternates. It's team events so the teams play on. One week without a star player does not change much. Our PPV is On demand so you can watch the Mosconi Cup and still watch your favorite team at another time. The New York or the Atlanta team will still be exciting to watch with or without their star player for a game or two. It's a long season.
It has nothing to do with disrespecting the Mosconi Cup. I've been to several Mosconi Cups...loved the venue and the crowd. Just like people will love the WPBL. Teams are fun and entertaining.
We never said players weren't free to play in any other important event. Hog wash! We said they had a choice. The team will simply need another player to replace them. I have gone to many events when the star player is not on the roster. I go to see the team and get entertained.
