    Evaluating the level of play on Earl Vs SVB, how good was it?

    Quite a subject there! ......I've watched that match in it's entirety, at the least, 7 times!!! I saw Earl play for the first time at Forrest Park Billiards in Dayton, just after he beat Sigel (about 6 months later). WOW! WOW! WOW! When I think back to how he was then (emotionally) I even...

    Evaluating the level of play on Earl Vs SVB, how good was it?

    "The ghost of Strickland past?" "....Earls safety play has "ALWAYS" been suspect, he's definitely better at that aspect of the game, now. However, over-all, IMHO, he hits the ball about like a normal great, not the phenom, "Little Earl!!" In the eighties when he first hit the scene, "NONE...

    10' Tables Future Of Pro Pool??

    Good Points All! .......Well, here goes, 10 footers, the future? Let me digress; I was just at "The Masters, 10 ball" and on the last 2 days of the Tournament, an Amateur event, was scheduled to coincide with the Pro 10-ball event. With the worlds elite Ball movers in the very next room, not...

    My opinion about Earl and what he is doing to pool...

    Aww-shucks! Well, now there is an original idea!!! "Live, form Greensboro, N.C., It's Saturday Night with Earl!" Yeah, that might even make money! I mean after all "Big Time Wrestling" does! The sad thing for me is, that was some fantastic pool Saturday night. If you wanted to convey the...

    8 year old in the "Pit" at SBE

    Earl tossed out of SBE...

    Bull-sh*t Brother!!! ....yeah, yeah, yeah, It's not a question of, is his behavior correct, of course it's not, it's that he has been the best player ever, in nine-ball!! How has he been paid off, even from the beginning, by a bunch of know nothings that don't even understand his many...

    Earl tossed out of SBE...

    possible? Yeah, that might be the case, but then again, Strickland (big Earl) still listens to, and likes, DiLiberto. When Danny talks to Earl, he listens still. With Joe, as long as he was seen as the Alpha male, nothing changed!

    Earl tossed out of SBE...

    Not! ....I knew Joe Burns well, if you were one of his favorites, he'd teach you what to do to win against better players! Now don't miss this, Burns l-o-v-e-d "Little Earl," he'd have fought loudly and openly, with Joe Kerr over even the thought of throwing Strickland out of one of "his...

    Earl tossed out of SBE...

    Really??? I wonder how this cat (South Philly), handles HECKLERS! The perfect choice for TD, A COMEDIAN!! Sounds like the Comedian from "The Watchmen" to me!:grin-devilish: Posted that in another "Earl, thread." Seems appropriate here, too! If anyone really cares about the truth, in Earl's...

    Earl's version of what happened at SBE.

    Word to the wise As I remember it, an ancient cautionary tale that goes like this: "When sharpening tools (like an ax to grind), make sure not to cut YOURSELF with the blade!" :cool:

    Earl's version of what happened at SBE.

    Any DCC memories? ......you run headlong into one of Earl's comments at DCC about 10 years back? Something like, "I played so bad this fat kid almost beat me!"

    Archer tells Earl he's gonna torture him (Video)

    One to watch, for SURE! .....well, this will be enjoyable to watch. Archer is playing at near the top of his game and has been for several years now. Think he'll put on his stall routines, picking lint, get up, walk around, get down, back up, walk around, back down, up pick some lint, back...

    Earl's version of what happened at SBE.

    A good example! ...This sounds about right. Everybody should take a good look at this post. Earl, usually has an element of truth in what he's upset about! I can give a lot of instances where the public, has been busting his balls, about something that was on a level, the general pool playing...

    All else equal, is the measle pro cup harder to draw than other cueballs?

    Measals ball +++++! ......I totally agree with these comments of Jay's. If you've got a controlled stroke, the measles cue-ball is really no different to draw than any of the other cue-balls. IMO, the blue circle Brunswick ball (Centennial cue-ball) plays VERY similar! Both come off the...

    Seriously??? ...well, to date, in these United States, No, one, person has done more to promote the last vestiges of Professional pool, than Barry Behrman with "H-I-S" tournament, the U.S. Open! He pays off when there is poor fan support, out of his own pocket!!! More to the point, he...
