hey whats up kenny? its todd in greensboro hope you're doing good havent talked to you in a while. congratulations on your wedding. i just wanted to let you know earl is doing fine.he has a house right near the poolroom and he practices everyday. hes doing fine. just wanted to squash that rumor. im planning on making it up to asheville soon hopefully i'll see you.
He is back from Japan where he was nuttier each night and will not get a return engagement according to a Japanese room owner i spoke with.(but this is pool and nothing is impossible)
I heard the TD of the BCA event say Earl would never get another invite there and 2 years later, he was back.
Anyway, it is very sad.

Next weekend
Earl will be at the Jacoby tournament next weekend playing in a pro am

Also hope to get some time to get a few interviews and maybe get Earl
to speak for himself which he never seems to have a problem doing.

I am glad Earl is doing ok. He is my favorite narcissus in the whole world. I would hate to hear he is doing bad. He vows to win one more world championship, and I hope he does.
and I hope he does
Yeah id love to see him do it and then retire but Im sure that isnt economically feasible for him. He better get a girlfriend before it's too late!
sounds like most of the players i know!!..
Glad to hear he's not sleeping in the shaggin' wagon.
I have heard from others who know even though I haven't seen it recently with my own eyes that Earl still has the ability to play at an extremely high level.
While playing his matches in a tournament like the U.S. OPen 9 Ball Championship, I would love to see Earl have a tournament in which:
1. He doesn't say one 1 word to any fan during any of his matches.
2. He doesn't say 1 word to his opponentduring any of his matches.
3. He doesn't say 1 word of self-talk (to himself)during his matches{/B]
4. He doesn't roll his eyes when he hears comments from anyone.
5. When he misses a shot, he doesn't do anything but go sit in his chair and wait for his next opportunity to come to the table and play his best.
(No grimmacing, no glaring, no cursing, no exclamations of any kind)
6. No sharking his opponent with words, movement or any other sharking effort.
7. If he is accosted verbally or otherwise, which happens to him a lot by a few dirty SOB's, he should simply report the offense to the tournament director.
The above items are what is holding Earl back from another World Championship imo.
In fact, Earl should go to the tournament director before the tournament starts and ask the tournament director to keep an eye on his matches to keep the low-life's that would attempt to take away his chance to play his best pool (and that includes any opponent that would stoop low by sharking Earl). He should also tell the TD that he plans to be on his best behavior and for the TD to keep that information to himself.
Hell, if he wanted and I was at the tournament, I would go to the tournament director myself and seek to have rowdy visitors (I can't call them fans) removed from the tournament.
I want to see Earl excel so much that I would play policeman on behalf of the tournament director but I wouldn't give Earl a break for his own bad behavior if any, but I would send miscreants packing with the tournament director's blessing.
Earl deserves to be able to play without provocation but he also deserves to rid himself of the obstacles that he sometimes imposes on himself.
GO EAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRLLLL!

FWIW: No shave, no shower, no sleep. I've done it. It's necessary sometimes.
Since others have said that Earl is fine and not sleeping in his car and is not on a crash course, if I were you, I would divulge the name of the person who is spreading this distasteful and untruthful rumour.[/B]
This nasty rumor spreading is not nice.
At a recent tournament, because my last tournament match of the night started at 4:15 am, without a shower and without a shave, I slept in my truck for about an hour or so because it would have taken an hour or so to get to and from the hotel room and I may not have been able to make it back for me and my road-dogs' EARLY AM MATCH.

It was only a question not starting a rumour.... Also i just got word from a friend that earl just got back from Japan and is driving a bmw.... Thats the answer i wanted to hear... Earl is my favorite player, besides myself, and i would NEVER start any negative rumour about him....

I want to see him center himself. I don't think he is down by any means. I think he has just lost "it". When I say that I mean that he hasn't really lost anything. He is still capable of steamrolling his way through a world championship.....he just forgot exactly what that feels like. He forgot it, but it is not gone. It will pop up again eventually and when it does I hope I get to see it.
They can kick him belly up, kick him belly down, kick him belly skid, kick him all around, or kick him while he's up, kick him while he's down, kick him in his shins, kick him all around.
But they can't take away the fact that he's THE best living American player on the face of the earth, bar none, and to date, nobody can touch his championship wins!
