I would bet on it, any takers? The format of posting and defensiveness are clues to big to ignore. Tick tock, tick tock, my the moderators are going to be busy today.

Shut the F@#% up and let the man shoot.
I think he just wants the spectators at his matches to display common courtesy and shut up, so he can focus on his game. They have to talk during each shot and after each shot. After each game or at the end of the match they can talk or appluad. I have noticed on TV matches from years ago, he does not like it when the spectators applaud after he makes a great shot or gets in a tight zone for position. I think all he wants is Quiet during each game, but all the railbirds have to run off at the mouth.
It can be very distracting, Hell he is under enough pressure with all the people watching and the TV crew walking around the table. Just my 2 cents.
Still and always will be a Fan of his.

Its seems your monolog is going the right way... nobody is answering.....But yep.. maybe you are earl and then there is nothing you can do about it.
Elizabeth,
I'm still a big fan! I think you're a true representative of the US. We're not perfect, but who wants to be? In the words of the late Hunter Thompson... "When the Going Gets Weird, the Weird Turn Pro"...
Characters make the world a better place to be. Look at some other "greats" that aren't pool players: Albert Einstein, Muhammed Ali, Donald Trump, Teddy Roosevelt, Generals Patton and Mac Arthur, Liberace, Don King, Hulk Hogan, and Orville Redenbacher, just to name a few. Do these people seem anything close to "normal" to anyone else? You might think it's a real strange list, I agree, but these folks were all excellent performers in their respective fields. They also all had critics and followers for the way they approached their jobs. They insulted people in various ways. Hulk Hogan wore a feather boa and put on eye makeup after being a children's idol for years (very similiar to Liberace's story), Patton and Mac were absolute terrors to their superiors, Don King promoting skills are legendary, but normal? Only in America!
Rock on, Big E!

Yeah, but if Albert, Hulk, Patton and the rest of the boys mentioned ever offered me the 7, it would be hard to pass up. Of course, Albert, Mac, Patton and a few others couldn't do it without a heater and some serious smelling salts.
If Earl offered it up, I'd have to say "El Paso"! A great player, indeed! A great ambassador for the sport, .........questionable!
As I have said in other posts, I believe televised pool on the world stage needs a shot in the arm through audience participation. Cheering, jeering and all the rest. Just no cell phones or flash cameras.
Every
Pool room has an 'Earl' of some kind. You have to work around it if you want to play him/them. Railbirds can be intolerable at times, especially people that don't play regular, just there because a friend of theirs is a player, and wants to watch.
If they don't want to watch, and behave themselves, they should go somewhere else. It's called having some 'couth', or good manners for those that don't remember the term.
