Good point.Eleven(so far) pages of takes/replies that would NOT have happened without Earl's making the team. Matchroom didn't get where they are by being stupid. Its either going to be exciting as hell or one massive trainwreck. Matchroom wins either way.
Don't think I'd go THAT far. There are plenty of people that know more about both pool AND pool tables than Earl; however, there is almost no one living that knows more about being a champion pool player OR about winning the mosconi cup.Good point.
I don't think there is a person on the planet that knows more about a pool table then Earl. Just hoping he shows up with a mental game as well as a physical game.
Problem is Earl's mental state is fragile to put it mildly. Takes so little these days to set him off. Those Brit fans will be hell-bent on getting him to explode. Book it.Don't think I'd go THAT far. There are plenty of people that know more about both pool AND pool tables than Earl; however, there is almost no one living that knows more about being a champion pool player OR about winning the mosconi cup.

We're any of the other 9 or so MC's Earl were as ever a "train wreck", asking for a friendEleven(so far) pages of takes/replies that would NOT have happened without Earl's making the team.

He's not anywhere near where he used to be. Playing wise or upstairs. I hope he does well but i just see a melt-down coming. Sad that such a great player is being reduced to what amounts to a side-show. BTW, last time he played('13) was, iirc, the 2nd worst beating in MC history(11-2).We're any of the other 9 or so MC's Earl were as ever a "train wreck", asking for a friend
Oh, come on. If we can put a dementia patient in the White House, surely, we can let a hyper guy play pool that 99.99% of the planet is not going to watchHe's not anywhere near where he used to be.

True dat. LOL.Oh, come on. If we can put a dementia patient in the White House, surely, we can let a hyper guy play pool that 99.99% of the planet is not going to watch

And yet, they are letting SVB shoot again in 2021 after that ass kicking back then. Tell me it's not soBTW, last time he played('13) was, iirc, the 2nd worst beating in MC history(11-2).
Who would you have take his place? Point is Earl is a 60yr old maybe top-50(?????) mental case. He got chosen by MR strictly as carnival side-show. I haven't watched but maybe three matches in the last four MC's but i might have to sweat the Earl show. Need to contact Ladbrokes on getting a 'when will Earl go off' bet.And yet, they are letting SVB shoot again in 2021 after that ass kicking back then. Tell me it's not so
Dude, I was making a point. You said the last time Earl played they lost badly. I only pointed out that SVB was on that team then tooWho would you have take his place?

I got a feeling he's gonna run out from everywhere.Your right on the money. The fans there will go after Earl relentlessly in the hopes he will completely lose it. Matchroom undoubtedly knows and expects this so I guess we all will have to watch and hope Earl does the impossible and plays great and behaves like the champion he is.. Chances of that are.............
