RE: ๐พโฝ๐ฑ My Sports Events Bucket List ๐๐๐โโ๏ธ
you'd imagine scoring some tickets shouldn't be too tough
You'd think wouldn't you?! I applied for loads and didn't get any and lots of other people had the same problem. The Paralympics was decent though.
If you could choose any 2 players in the history of snooker to watch play, they'd probably be the 2. Only Alex Higgins comes close in my opinion. Ronnie O'Sullivan was a class above though - Jimmy got destroyed.
Yep, they'd be the two I'd pick.. They had/have it in spades. Ability, personality and flamboyance. Ronnie is more like a rock band front man than a snooker player, the head on and the way he goes on.
When thinking about Ronnie O'Sullivan, it's remarkable what he's achieved with his temperament. I wonder how good he'd have been if he had the discipline of somebody like Steve Davis or Stephen Hendry.
Sorry man, missed replying here... Ya I've had a similar thought about O'Sullivan before, but I think the temperament is part of the overall package that is Ronnie.
Changing any piece of the whole may be detrimental to him. For me he is the greatest of all time in talent, entertainment and likeability..
100% talent and entertainment - likeability, I'd say that the repeated failure by Jimmy White makes him more likeable ๐
Ha ha, good point well made caller! Still prefer Ronnie myself though... horses for courses...
As an Irishman, I wouldn't expect it any other way ๐
