Earl Strickland's farewell speech to Efren Reyes

[@marshalrodriguez4647]

To hear "Efren is the best" directly from Earl is most convincing than to hear it from any other person.

[@nelsonali2360]

yah you are correct

[@iz_yaboii]

Absolutely! they played a race to 100 for chrissake. Earl had the most experience against Efren.

[@martinadrianarcenas867]

i never thought id hear it from earl too.. although i feel earl always respected efren

[@kilppa]

He has said it before. In the end, he knows probably the best how great his game is. There is mutual respect. Even today when Earl narrates games he talks about how Efren would've done that or that is exactly how he would've done it. Game respects game. Efren has also stated at least one occasion that Earl is the best. The golden age of pool.

if you never saw that in him, then i dont know what you look for in a player. he always had that in him, he just bickers in game and everyone starts calling him names. that crowd knows better. the applause on his first speech was enough proof, even before he made that humble statement. and everyone complains in their head. but you have to be deaf to not hear the truth in earl's bickering in game. never an ounce of insecurity, it's only about lucky rolls and getting sharked on the table.

Most people like or dislike Earl from his "public character" - I'm fortunate to have spent a lot of time with him playing golf, tennis, and of course poocket billiards. I also had the opportunity to play Efren on his last tour and he can still play! Efren is a legend, I played him in my first professional tournament in Toronto Canada and got to play him many times after during his prime years....there will never be anything like another Efren....or Earl.

[@jeffmauldin2841]

So Earl constantly sharks everyone but because he made a speech praising Efren he now has your respect? Wow, your respect was sure easy to earn lol. Earl is one of the greatest to play the game, right beside Efren, and the fact that it took a speech to get your respect tends to show that your respect isn't worth a thing, but it's good that you get to have your opinion of 2 of the greatest pool players ever read by everyone here, must make you important huh?

In my observation, Earl was always a grumpy kind of player. Everyone has their personality and way of doing things. He was a great player and still is, but anyhow his speech was one of his greatest shots that I ever saw Competition over, the grump was gone, and the real human was there👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@jeffmauldin2841]

@rats arsed well dr. Dumbass, how did you come to this diagnosis from behind your keyboard? You do realize that others have OPINIONS and unless you have some inside information from Earl himself other opinions are just as valid as your own, and that means neither your opinion or anyone else's opinion has to be taken as fact. Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one, just most of us try not to be one. Maybe you should try that.

I think they would admit that Efren is the best. But Shane, if he keeps playing has a chance to be the best of all time.

[@arisart22]

Majority of players would admit Efren to be the goat, even players before him. Probably because Efren is undeniably the most versatile player out there. You might beat him in 9 balls but you won't on straight pool. Plus he gets better the bigger the prize money. Guy is a pure hustler through and through..
