Positive reviews for pay is the definition of shilling.
Not that you'd know (or admit) that.

You've asked this 10 times already. Besides what does it have to do with what Fran posted. Again, seek some help.
Why does this video scream mental breakdown?
That's unkind. Tony Robles is widely acknowledged as a good guy, so he first reviewed my teaching, then agreed to endorse the site with his presence.
I likewise received free products when I was at About.com, but only endorsed meritorious items online with reviews, talking to the inventors to advise them, etc.
I'm wanting to not respond and let this thread die, but I'm upset that you said something so very rude about Tony Robles.
No, really, I want to stop.
Ha!
Of course, I am responding to several persons, it's not like I come back daily and post my latest blog.

Once again your response has zero to do with the content of the post you're replying to. It had nothing to do with Robles. Why is it so difficult to understand?
I don't know, why is it so difficult for you to understand?
Maybe I have a learning disability. On a different note, when can we expect an updated video displaying your prowess vs the 10B ghost.
We're hoping for an overhead view and normal (not speed) pool. Greatly appreciated and anticipated.
Can do:
First, acknowledge you're unable to make the skill shots I made in my video as above playing speed pool (posted multiple times without any response from you).
Second, post video (someone else can take it if you are unable) showing your own playing and knowledge base.
Third, respond to the article I posted here on tip gap correction, and tell everyone why it's wrong in your humble opinion.
Fourth, apologize for claiming I lied about being a James Bond influencer and vocal music coach--I've posted more than adequate proof about my other interests here.
Fifth, apologize for saying foul things about me, Tom Kennedy and other respected pool teachers and pros.
I admit, I'd like to see that too. Even a nine ball ghost.
Just something where you have to be able to move the cue ball and play deliberate position rather than simply banging balls haphazardly into pockets.
Just about any 450 Fargo can bang in a spread of 10 balls if he can shoot them in any random order he wants.
I'd not call my speed pool video haphazard, and Sparkle needs to be responsive, first. Where's his video, do you think?
I will post another video but I have also defended my teaching credentials in pool and other subjects, so Sparkle's trolling must end.

I respectfully disagree.
While you absolutely play quickly, your position play is haphazard and sloppy, with no discernible intentional pattern.
A result of playing quickly? Entirely possible. That's why I'd like to see something more deliberate that requires more precise cueball control.
Simply my .02 worth and observation.
Thank you for clarifying. I wasn't playing outside-in or inside-out or triangles, etc. So yes, more video is required.
Sparkle knows when he asks me for video, I don't want to do it, because he's a troll, so he likes to egg me on, like "overhead view", yeah, I'm gonna pay a camera crew $1,000 to use a gantry at the pool hall, maybe I can get them to open the ceiling using construction for $10,000 more . . .
I'd pay $100,000 to watch him try the skill shots I made at speed pool. We all need some comedy once in a while, and I'm trying to support his free speech and be a peacemaker, but he's one of the meanest, nastiest people I've met--and I've posted thousands of times as a Christian on atheist forums! He's got a mean streak and a yellow spine, a deadly combination.
Now David, if you said, "just ignore him", then I wouldn't post more video, and he would claim he needs video, just like I've already posted video for years and it's never enough for his trolling. So at least I can post video because you asked, not him. What a relief! THANKS!
Let's talk about the 1st video, shall we? It wasn't until my stellar review that the term "speed pool" was mentioned. Not to mention your claim that you were breaking poorly on purpose to start with a poor CB position.
Seems it may have a good idea to state those things up front instead of a week later as an attempt at damage control.
Tied up atm but will be getting back to you soon. Stay tuned.
**** For the gamblers, if you do a 10B ghost video, race to 7, I'm setting the over/under at 1.5.
Nonsense. It's obvious but needed to be stated because you were trash talking again. I broke 4 balls in breaking 8-Ball, and on other breaks, 11 of 15 balls past the side pockets on Tuesday, so that will probably be my next video's start. LOOKING FORWARD.
Of course, you are not doing any of the following, yet, are you?
First, acknowledge you're unable to make the skill shots I made in my video as above playing speed pool (posted multiple times without any response from you).
Second, post video (someone else can take it if you are unable) showing your own playing and knowledge base.
Third, respond to the article I posted here on tip gap correction, and tell everyone why it's wrong in your humble opinion.
Fourth, apologize for claiming I lied about being a James Bond influencer and vocal music coach--I've posted more than adequate proof about my other interests here.
Fifth, apologize for saying foul things about me, Tom Kennedy and other respected pool teachers and pros.

Where to start? Haphazardly? Why not?
That in bold above is what I observed. The fact that you don't agree is IMO a manifestation of DK. Be nice if others chimed in and gave their opinion.
Nuff of that, let's address your other points. Note that my responses will actually have something to do with your questions or statements.
They'll be facts not fabrications. Any evidence I submit can be easily verified. If it's my opinion only then I will state as such like I did above.
" First, acknowledge you're unable to make the skill shots I made in my video as above playing speed pool"--- Nowhere, in any post have I said I can or can't make them. I'm not making any claims about my expertise in that area, nor do I have to. I'm not out to prove anything to you or anyone else.
" Second, post video (someone else can take it if you are unable) showing your own playing and knowledge base."--- See answer above. I have no interest in making a video or playing pool. It's not me who continually makes claims and then fails to back them up with evidence of some sort'
"Third, respond to the article I posted here on tip gap correction, and tell everyone why it's wrong in your humble opinion."--- I never said it was wrong. If you claim that I did then point us to the post involved. I expressed no opinion about it at all. You posted that in post 266 on the "Your Pro Pool Clinic thread. My last post on that thread was #209.
"Fourth, apologize for claiming I lied about being a James Bond influencer and vocal music coach--I've posted more than adequate proof about my other interests here."---I had some comments about JB but tell me where I said you lied. I just exposed some things you may not have wanted known. But lie? No, didn't happen.
To my recollection I had no comments about a "vocal music coach" How could I have? You presented no evidence of you being one.
You did put up a singing video which was very good but I'm not sure if because you can sing it necessarily translates into being a vocal music coach. Maybe but I wouldn't know.
" Fifth, apologize for saying foul things about me, Tom Kennedy and other respected pool teachers and pros."---IMO it's clear to everyone except you that I've made no disparaging comments about TK or others. Again, I'd welcome others opinion on that. Also, IMO your perception that when I did mention them was that I was attacking them personally shows the extent of your inability to read and comprehend with any degree of accuracy.
My comments towards you are different. I can be abrasive at times but I'm not the one with the names and accusations of trolldom. (is that a word?) All of my criticisms of you have to do with the content of your posts. Some of the stuff you call unorthodox I consider ridiculous and I'm not hesitant to state that nor am I alone in my assessment. You have trouble believing you could possibly be wrong even when confronted with overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
I wouldn't dream of questioning anything you say about JB but when it comes to pool I consider you a lightweight. JMO
To clarify:
Right, like you didn't tell people it could be worth hundreds of dollars to "watch him juggle balls". He had the clinic students spellbound last month with proposition shots, a breaking and banking clinic, etc.
He plays tournaments and teaches students for a living! I get angry every time I think you might have taken food off his family's table with your foul remarks. You are a horrible person.
- You can't play pool and you won't
- You asked for a clinic teaching sample but have nothing to say about 500 words on the tip gap that I posted from your specific request
- You're not going to apologize for trash talking Tom Kennedy, and his pool teaching

So, double o, I tried, really tried to be nice and put forth my argument in an honest logical way. To bad your anger and runaway ego prevents you from responding in kind.

As a gambler, I gotta say that is horrendous handicapping and anyone who likes money would bet the over with everything they got. The under simply can't win cuz he'd never post a 7-1 loss. Freeroll me on the over for a house lol.
'capping may not be for you
