Lords of miss rule

Really I just wanted to use that as a subject line, but here are some snooker ramblings... I was hoping for a McCulloch-Murphy final, but since I really wanted Anyone But Ebdon, I'm happy enough with the way the semis fell out. It's been gripping so far - although I did manage to tear myself away from the end of this afternoon's session and go outside - and I'm hoping for a Final Frame Thriller (say it quickly). I'll be happy to see either of these two players win: Stevens because he's the only player to lose the World Championship after an overnight lead; Murphy because everyone likes to see the outsider win. Great championship, great final.

Well said. Too bad I probably won't get to see it as I need to work on my S.C.E. story.

Hope the writing goes well and you managed to fit in a few frames at some point. Looks like this match will be going a fair distance.

Thanks, and I did, although I'm too tired to watch it until the end. I'm hoping for the Welsh Dragon to win.

Not to be; I'm sad for Stevens, but I think Murphy makes a good champion, and he does deserve it.
