Fresh off the mic and it's gonna be tough to top this one.

John Schmidt in the booth just before the start of Efren vs Jose

"These guys would rather get ebola than lose to each other". :grin-square:

Feel free to add new quotes as they come.

I love listening to John. Kinda reminds me of Grady at times. Funny but insightful. This thread should be interesting.
 
From yesterday:

On admiring the play of Chinese player Liu Tao, John commented: "Let's get him on the Mosconi team. We'll call him Bob from Iowa."

John really is doing a great job as commentator, and yeah, he's seriously funny.

Mark Wilson is also doing a fantastic job. Mark has usually, and wisely, advocated a minimum of risk-taking and I hope the youth of America is watching because much can be learned from this --- because this is the mindset with which the Asians are succeeding with.

Nice job, guys.

I totally agree with you. Mark has been spot on for the most part. And all you have to do is watch the Asians demeanor and play at the table to appreciate it. We can all learn something from that.
 
John Schmidt on Earl...

"Earl tells off a room full of Hells Angels while he's running out!!"

John comes with some great lines. I was doing a exhibition tour with Earl and John. and it was John's turn to get up in front of the crowd and play a mini challenge match as Earl sits and watches. John looks over at Earl and in a loud voice to the crowd says "Playing pool in front of Ear is like having sex in front of a porn star"
 
Earl is coming back on a big gear running 4 in a row and John Says:

"Earl is FedExing a package to Hu's house"

In the current Earl vs Majid match currently 10 - 4 Majid is on the hill...

Earl is acting up and Mark Wilson says:

"This is why Earl is not on Team USA - it would actually be better for us if he was on Team Europe, which is sad to say."
