Another little known fact is that he used the same science that was used to make the ultimate resonating weapon and applied it to a break cue which transferred the resonance to the cueball which then transferred it to the pack which caused a break of truly epic proportions. He had to scrap it though because it caused pool tables to fall apart from such huge breaks!

Don't you want to say *blue* handed, my blue miniature cajun poodle?
You said "You've attacked Stan many times Lou. You continue to attack Stan."
I said, "Show me."
I'm still waiting.

or are ya
just gonna yap?
Having actually done the bachelor and masters thing myself, my point was that it takes more than intelligence to go to a school like Harvard and actually achieve/sustain/graduate with a grade average of 4.0. As I said, I've met many smart pool players. But how many can even come on here and write at the college level and present logical arguments?
Lou Figueroa
So because I question the ability of most pool players to go to Harvard and get a 4.0 grade average I'm attacking them?!
That is weak.

I like blue better than purple.
But my favorite, green, is the color of money! [bad-dum tssshhh.] :thumbup:
Now wait a minute! You said it and I'm not letting you take it back. I like the idea that pool players are higher up on the food chain than most of the rest of the human race. I've known this for years. :smile:
It is true that we are capable of solving complex problems which mere mortals shy away from trying. I also consider myself a part of our elite think tank, capable of making earth shaking and shaping decisions. It's not silly at all!
We just need to accept the fact we are an inherently cerebral species that are drawn to the game because of our great intellectual capacity. Ain't that the truth?!? :grin:
Congratulations, Stan The Man! Definitely a professional showing. It's impressive to say I took lessons from you.
Best,

ex post facto Lou, your post that attacks their intelligence, stated something about them needing decoder rings, and aluminum head gear to work for John...This list (your list) includes me. But like I said I can't figure out the headgear, and the ring is broken...

Indeed. Back on topic, more congrats are in order for Stan. Not only did he deal a near white washing of Donnie Mills, he lost a hill hill battle with Peach, who is no pushover obviously. What a great tournament for Stan. Keep on keepin' on my man...

There's a whole thread of these. If you think suggesting Stan made an DVD that was "incomprehensible" (when MANY thought it wasn't hard to follow) and designed to "purposely doom a student" isn't a PERSONAL ATTACK, your two degrees aren't worth the paper they're written on.
Stan is a great guy who I had lessons from. I just wish he could have kept his knowledge for pool to the students that paid for private lessons.
That is what made pool great !!
In today's world with azbilliards and so many videos a person can become a real good player WITHOUT spending a dime.

I think you referred to the system as a marketing tool in your
two part column about it
.Anyway.....Great shooting Stan and Congrats .
Louie,
We're all waiting for your answer. It now appears that lying is also one of your traits.
Your friend,
Frank

Yes, I wrote that and stand by it. The DVD was a joke.

It's ok if you stand by what you wrote, if that's how you really feel then fine, does not mean you are right. You wrote that Stan CHOSE to make an incomprehensible DVD and that he (Stan) PURPOSEFULLY doomed the student to failure.
You asked to be shown where you attacked Stan's character and here is the proof. Now you want more proof?
Let's forget about the product, the ProOne Aiming system, for a moment. Taking that out of the equation you are simply attacking the character of the person who made the DVD by accusing them of deliberately being confusing and misleading in order to insure that the viewer cannot succeed with the information presented.
You can't know that. You can't know that Stan DELIBERATELY did this.
And from what we know of Stan's character the last thing one would expect from him is that he would CHOOSE willfully to mislead a student and "doom" them to failure. So I don't see how you can construe your statement as anything BUT a personal attack.
So just to put this into perspective, in this thread you have said Stan is a "good guy" but that you think his product is bogus and it was pointed out to you that you have said Stan deliberately chose to deceive and doom students to failure. It does not jibe that you think he is a good guy when you accuse him of selling a bogus product intended to confuse the viewer and doom them to failure.
Sounds like pure old school doublespeak to me Lou with a big old helping of jealousy thrown in. You asked for results and Stan delivered by showing everyone that he can flat out play and I think that this bothers you immensely. That's just my observation based on your participation in this thread coupled with the general tone of your stance on what Stan teaches all these years.
You're a very good player. I am guessing you got that way the "hard way" with no help from any instructional DVDs or "systems". I would tend to think that anyone who got there with good old fashioned brute force perseverance and table time doesn't like the thought that another person could have a chance to reach the same level in less time but that's called progress.
When you knock progress and those who are progressive it's just crotchety and jealous and transparent to all who read it.
You attacked Stan personally in this thread, you have attacked him directly in the past, you have attacked him as part of a group attack on instructors who teach aiming methods associated with Hal Houle. So just own it Lou. You think that Stan Shuffet is a scammer with his ProOne and it galls you that this guy you think is a snake-oil salesman (because you claim his product is snake-oil) can actually play and posts strong finishes against tough players.
If you disagree then prove it.

How can my calling the CTE aiming system a marketing tool be a personal attack on Stan? Stan reworked CTE and called his new system Pro 1. And why do you think he reworked it? Could it be because he knew it had some shortcomings? Could it be because he knew it was no longer marketable after all of these forum debates? Or could it be for both of those reasons...and even more?
Besides, did I say there is anything wrong with marketing tools? No, I didn't. Trade names are marketing tools. Packages are marketing tools. Distribution systems are marketing tools. My BCA Instructor's certificate is a marketing tool. This discussion forum is a matketing tool. Is there anything wrong with utilizing any of those marketing tools?
And aren't you the guy who said he wanted to teach the CTE system for pay? How's that working out for you since you don't like marketing tools?
