I don't think he was but won't swear to it.
I agree about Earl - he's good for pool.

Thanks for the clarification Jay and there's not a lot more to say after reading your post.I was sitting right there and Shane didn't lose because of Earl! He lost because he missed four relatively easy shots in the last six games. He should have won 15-10 or thereabouts. These misses were baffling after Shane had played so well up into that point. Shane simply failed to seal the deal when he had Earl on the ropes.
As far as Earl is concerned he does act petulant and even childish at times. But he sat quietly for the most part while Shane was at the table. Once or twice I asked him not to talk to the audience while it was Shane's turn and he complied. I watched carefully to see if anything Earl was doing was bothering Shane and that was not the case. Shane's focus and concentration were not disturbed in any way by Earl. Once again Shane lost because he missed several balls at a critical point in the match. And Earl took advantage of each of these mistakes. That's the match I saw.
One thing I thought i noticed in the match.. Was Shane using a longer cue also? An extention to his normal cue?
First,to call me a idiot already makes you a dumb cu-t.Second,you don't know what effects Shane unless your a f--kin mind reader.If what your saying is true and Earl has no control and doesn't know what he's doing,he should quit playing guys like Shane,who can control himself and know what he's doing.Personally I think Earl knows what he's doing cause he does the same shit everytime,to what degree would probablyHow can you possibly be annoyed with Earl talking and you are NOT playing him. It had no affect on SVB, just some of the idiot railbirds like yourself. Go read Jay's post !! Earl does NOT even know what Earl is gonna do or even why he does it, and I suspect just like guys that have tempers that can't control themsevles, Earl cannot stay quiet in a pool match.....

Thank you brother! Can you imagine Landon whipping his head around and yelling "STFU!"?
One thing I can say with 100% certainty...Shane HATES playing Earl.
For some reason I am having trouble typing in the chat on the stream.I had a heck of a time logging in because I was skipping letters when typing,its not my keyboard or connection.
Looking forward to the match tonight.Earl vs the Kid,should be a good one.
