I never said that an instructor has to be a champion.
I said that an instructor needs to be someone who has played under pressure and is still capable of playing under pressure and can show some heart against someone who is dead set on burning his ass in competition. That's where the rubber hits the road, in my opinion.
Not a "fat belly" who blows smoke with a silly grin about how much he knows, and the number of years he has been 'teaching', but never shoots any serious pool against someone who is a player.
Another poster here, said it well about he "never had a math teacher who couldn't do the math that was being taught."
Talk is cheap, you know.
:wink:
I don't know who the "fat Belly" is. Care to name him?
