This weekend was another incendiary installment in these fellas' enduring bitter saga.
Many may remember it all started a several years ago at the Ginky Memorial, when Earl bested Jayson and aggravated him to the point where Shaw snapped his jump cue at the conclusion of the match.
While I think that Jayson has matured in many ways since then, this weekend proved that Earl is still wily enough to tweak the youngun's buttons.
I almost feel that these two are like a dysfunctional father and son in their relationship. They are similar in their playing style, talent, and raw emotional nerve.
The Ko/Shane rivalry has fizzled in recent times, but the next time Earl and Jayson butt heads in a tournament it will surely be must-see TV.
It was unfortunate how things turned out for the 14.1, but this may add a little juice that pool could use.
