I absolutely love the intro music- I could listen to it on a loop forever!
So ready for this! The professor and the pearl
Alex Pagulyon ( if spelled right), had not turned pro yet, and won around $30,000 from Grady at this event.

The outside history we need. Thank u.
0:13 that major body movement with the break though jeez!
Grady has a pure 1-pocket short stroke.
I’m sorry I missed the premier, you know I wasn’t going to miss this one for the world tho!
Battling commentators on this particular match - - - we only needed one!
Are those diamond tables?
Woe is the audio
"...that was the biggest moustache dogging I ever saw" - Danny D Honestly, people moan about Danny, Billy and Grady, but I could listen to these guys all day (though, I'd rather not watch Grady's cue action for longer than I absolutely have to!)
Now I know why Grady doesn't like nine ball ! lol
I didn't see anything wrong with Earl's winning 9. They reacted like it was some nearly bobbled shot. 🧐

He came closer to missing the 6 in that final rack.
Looked like Grady dumped his backer lol. Seemed like his head wasn't in this match one bit

Not Grady in the pic
Earl with that proper stroke. Grady with that awful, jabby, old-timey stroke...
👁️👁️
R.I.P. Grady.. he was 56 years old in this video but really looks like a 76 or 86 year old. Shocking... never seen someone at this age look like a very elderly senior person. He died at 69 years old in 2012.

The pool life will make you old before your time
It appears even with a short backswing, a poke at the cue and little follow-thru that therev are many ways to pocket balls. It just looks rushed and would cave in under pressure. I love Earl's slower backswing and him holding follow-thru...5 US Open 9 ball titles, i'M WITH EARL !!!
Get out of line stay out of line
The strickand oponent can't run any table.
Gradys stroke is sooo bad!! He should make a video on, how not to play...and play is normal game! Lol
I was going to all the events. Grady was a good commentator . But not a great player !!!

I disagree, Grady was a one pocket/straight pool champion. He was just older here bud. Could still play, just not consistent. Also, you try playing Earl the peal strickland in his prime, tell me how many racks you win. You think Grady can't play your crazy
