I was watching last night (ESPN), and Mitch sounded like he was reading of a script, "The best pool players in the world BLA BLA BLA". What the F. Has this guy ever seen pool played before??? I mean if some one gets up and misses a kick (one rail or otherwise), "Oh that was one of the hardest hits to make, she had to hit the ball in such an unnatural way".
And Dawn, she doesn't even know the difrence between a low hit and a high hit. And she's a "Top Pro", she's a joke, and yes I've seen her get spanked before.
Now I'm not saying that the players don't deserve their due, but to try and say the WPBA is the toughest compition for women is a straight out lie. Any woman tyhat wants to put up the entry fee can enter an open tournament, and give it a try.
And part of the reason you see some of them, all the time seems to be that they only have to play a small amount of good players (seeding). The top ladies (and yes it works the same for the men and it's fair) only play the weeker player until there warmed up and in stroke. Look at what happened to Alison, She was on the loser side early and had to play to many matches, so her neck went out (which happens to me, and it sucks to play that way).
The reason I bring this up with my rant is. Well I just got the IPT update with the list of round robin groups. And it seems that all the groups have world beaters in them, and 1 Top Pro from the WPBA. So I wonder if good old Kevin wants to really make the WPBA look bad or good (looking at those lists).
What do you all think (and I'm sure to get alot of fans for this one)???
