Great post JAM and thanks for the pictures.
I may be the minority, but I love Earl. I love to watch him play, I love to watch him chirp and float around the table. It adds color and drama, exactly what this boring spectator sport needs.
Earl is the only reason I watched the finals of the straight pool tournament. If it was Jayson and Mika, I would have been doing yard work or taking a nap.
I hope Earl is at the derby this year again and I'm sure all the sponsors do as well.

Ian you're not in the minority...I love Earl too. He does get out of hand at times but I believe it's because he is very hard on himself and only expects perfection which eludes all of us as we age.
I sometimes find myself watching Earl's matches from back in the day on YouTube and he was truly amazing even compared to todays young players.:thumbup2:
