Earl Strickland

Earl did not get stiffed for a nickel. CJ Wiley made sure of that, hiring attorney to represent his and Earl's interests.

Much like the lotteries of today, Earl could take the 20 years of installments at $50,000 a year or the lump sum payment.

Earl took the lump sum payment which was subtantially more than what has been reported.

The insurance company did not short change Earl nor did anyone else.

BTW, CJ Wiley will be coming out with a video of the MILLION DOLLAR RUN with lots of details not mentioned previously.

Jay Helfert was the tournament director at this spectacular event.

Joey will Earl be getting a cut of the $$ from the DVD? You seem to have the inside scoop. Please let us know, thanks.
 
I heard that Earl dressed up as a woman to get a game or should I say "get some action" in Florida or South Alabama, is there any truth to this because if there is I would have loved to had seen the picture. He would Have been one ugly woman:grin:

I surely hope so.

And I'll gladly contribute to the cause. I have waited a long time (w/the rest of the world) to see that last shot. A tough long combo on the 9 for all the cheese.

Mark....You guys stopped for the night already?

Great thread and kudos for everyone standing up and willing to help Earl. I would be willing to contribute what little I could also. Earl has been one of the greatest and entertained and brought a lot of attention and fans to pool. I have seen Earl in action many times starting with the Clyde Childress tournament in 1983. His 'A' game was as good as anyone who ever played the game! (IMO) We all have imperfections and done things we are not proud of but we are able to forgive and forget as compassionate human beings.:thumbup2:

P.S. - I believe Randy G can give you the facts behind the million dollar payout.
 
Hey guys! I'm not seeing Earl's name in the player list of the incoming Joss Northeast 9-Ball Tour. some big names are in there, and Earl is not with them!!!!:angry::angry:

I know he has difficulties and we wanted to help him out, seriously tell me where to chip in and I would to help Earl get into tournaments because I really enjoy watching him play! it's not cool if he doesn't join tournaments and only shows up in the U.S. Open and nothing else.

please someone talk him through to go to Joss Northeast 9-Ball Tour, it would be awesome ;)


p.s. send me a msg about how to chip in for earl and help either for building his page, or getting him into tournys, I would be glad to do it.
