This match put a whole new meaning to the phrase 'roll of the table'. I mean, has anyone seen a curl like the one on the 8 ball in rack 3!?!? I've never seen a cue ball reverse park around an 8 ball!

Match #13 vs Iron Pickle, 11/24/04, Wednesday League, Fall '04
Sean (SL5) won 4 - 0 against (SL3)
A very comfortable, no frills win from Sean. With 'new player' SL3s you never really know what you are going to face but although he made some good shots, Sean had far too much experience and class. Sean's best shot was an excellent cut on the first 8 ball from a tricky angle to secure the initial rack.

Match #12 vs Crazy 8's, 11/17/04, Wednesday League, Fall '04
Sean (SL5) lost 1 - 3 against (SL4)
We'll put this one down to it being very late and to the fact that Sean's opponent made a couple of astonishing 8 balls.

Match #10 vs McSwiggan's, 11/03/04, Wednesday League, Fall '04
Sean (SL5) won 4 - 3 against (SL6)
Without doubt the match-up of the season so far. Sean looked to be on fire as he ran away with the first and was then given an early Christmas present with an 8 ball over the pocket in the second. His opponent was not to be outdone though and he reeled off the next three racks to make it a straight race to two. Sean got to the hill in the next rack with another fantastic run and very good 8 ball along the cushion to leave his opponent needing two. The final rack again looked to be all Sean as some fluent potting ( I remember a very good 7 ball into the centre) left him with a simple 5 ball in the centre to either run through for the 8 ball in the opposite pocket or stun for the 8 ball in the same pocket. Just to keep us guessing Sean ended up in no-man's land and the 8 ball became embroiled in a tactical battle as it hung over the top pocket with his opponent's four stripes. One by one the stripes dropped until, faced with a snooker, Sean kicked against the side rail to not only hit but pot the 8 ball.

Match #5 vs Mulligan's 2, 09/29/04, Wednesday League, Fall '04
Sean (SL5) won 4 - 3 against (SL5)
Fantastic match played between two players who both seemed to be on their game. Rack 1 slipped away when giving his opponent ball in hand on the 8 ball, rack 2 was won with a nice run out but rack 3 also went begging. Back came Sean in rack 4 and 5 but his opponent took the match to hill / hill by winning rack 6. Looking in control in the final rack, his opponents double contact on the cue ball gave Sean ball in hand and he never looked back to clinch the win. Worst shot of the night contender, with ball in hand Sean somehow managed to sink his ball but snooker himself on every other ball and give ball in hand right back!

Match #2 vs Stone Shooters, 09/08/04, Wednesday League, Fall '04
Sean (SL5) won 4 - 1 against (SL3)
Probably the match of the night and in the balance throughout. In the end, Sean's extra ability and experience came through as he grabbed an excellent win against one of the leagues best SL3s. Shot of the night has to be the length of the table bank on the 8 ball for a 3-0 lead.

Shot Of The Night: Sean's length of the table bank on the 8 ball for a 3-0 lead.

Match #15 vs Severe Arthritis, 08/25/04, Wednesday League, Summer '04
Sean (SL5) won 4 - 2 against (SL4)
Another hill-hill match from a 3-0 lead. Sean's defensive play earned him what at one stage appeared to be an unassailable lead only to see a good SL4 take it to the decider. Again though, our teams ability to make a clearance proved decisive when Sean held his nerve under serious pressure to run 7 balls and take the match.

Match #14 vs Any Given Wednesday, 08/18/04, Wednesday League, Summer '04
Sean (SL5) won 4 - 1 against (SL3)
First rack looked like a stroll but a terrible mistake in rack 2 with a 2-0 lead begging at least made the match interesting. Sean probably won't appreciate me using the word interesting but there you go. We were all on the edge of our seats. To be fair though, the next three were won without too many problems to secure our first point of the night.

Match #13 vs Severe Arthritis, 08/11/04, Wednesday League, Summer '04

Match #12 vs Be Rude Not 2, 08/04/04, Wednesday League, Summer '04
Sean (SL5) lost 2 - 5 against (SL7)
I still can't believe that Sean didn't take this match but I won't go into too much detail for fear of causing him further pain. Needless to say, Sean had Tim absolutely reeling in just about every rack and who can forget that black. Hill / hill rack, ball in hand with two solid's on the table, simple pots and positioning to leave a reasonably easy black for the match and then..... ...sorry, I did say I wouldn't go into too much detail!. Anyway, it's a result that could well help the team much more then getting the point for the win.

Match #9 vs Stone Shooters, 07/14/04, Wednesday League, Summer '04
Sean (SL5) won 4 - 2 against (SL5)
Another wonderful match. A gift 8 scratch in the first rack put Sean 1-0 ahead and with his opponent having run to the black in the second, Sean played a fantastic snooker to give himself ball in hand with 7 balls on the table... ...a wonderful run out followed for a 2-0 lead. Back came Sean's opponent however and at 2-2 he had a seemingly unmissable 8 ball to put himself on the hill. Not sure how it happened but he missed and Sean, with just one solid on the table and an 8 ball hanging in the jaws, made no mistake. The last rack was easy with Sean's opponent apparently still thinking about the 8 ball and seemingly unable to make any ball. Take nothing away from Sean, he finished the match up in style having had to jack up his cue to avoid the table and sink the final black in the center pocket. Dear Mr Tom Gates... ....please, please, please don't make Sean a SL6 just yet!

Match #8 vs O'Donoghues IV, 07/07/04, Wednesday League, Summer '04
Sean (SL5) lost 2 - 5 against (SL6)
This was a very good match in which Sean more then held his own for long periods. A couple of half opportunities that escaped him will be sure to bother him until he gets a chance for revenge. Great shot in rack 4 when Jake ran most of the table and left his final ball over the pocket. Sean stepped up and potted Jake's ball using his own and sat the white right on top of the black. A further cunning defensive shot gave Sean the rack.

Match #6 vs Rogos, 06/23/04, Wednesday League, Summer '04
Sean (SL5) won 4 - 1 against (SL4)
Three matches, three SL4 opponents, three 4-1 wins... ...anyone see where I'm going with this?!? Leading 2-1 in matches and with a chance to clinch the win against one of the top teams Mike Spurr (with his knowledge of the other team and sacrificing his own playing spot) correctly nominated Sean to close out the match. The match was a mix of glimpses of the old fluent Sean and the bedrock experience he has of how to win a match. The bizarre 8 scratch in rack 4 apart, the result was never in doubt. Solid performance!

Match #2 vs Severe Arthritis, 05/26/04, Wednesday League, Summer '04
Sean (SL5) won 4 - 1 against (SL4)
Same as last week, lost the first and won the next four against what I have to say was a very reasonable four. Two of the four racks were won with three or four ball runs but the best shot was his very fine cut on his last stripe to cover the 'black pocket' in rack 4. Solid start to the season.

Match #1 vs Be Rude Not 2, 05/19/04, Wednesday League, Summer '04
Sean (SL5) won 4 - 1 against (SL4)
We were all a little worried after the first rack but in no time Sean found his rhythm and simply had to much for a good 4. A couple of clever defensive shots ultimately gave us a great start to the match. Bandit!
