* Your Pro Pool Clinic with Tom Kennedy, Matt Sherman *
- Thread starter BilliardsAbout
- Start date
I understand, although I exercise my rights, too, to respond how I choose, when being trolled. (Not saying you are a troll.)
Max and I spoke and he liked my teaching site, it was a blog plus hundreds of articles--all of them my content as writer/editor/reporter. We did an interview (online, not in person). It wasn't a form questionnaire, I tailored my questions to his career. I should take him off that list (which list I stuck on an AZ thread, it's unpublished), and as I've interviewed other people but didn't put them on the list, but I was memorably flattered when Max said he'd been following my other articles and interviews and enjoyed them a lot. He already knew of my teaching and blog before I first approached him.
I have Tony Robles listed as working with me, more correct he was working for me. He was a paid demonstrator for the same site (like Samm Diep for Dr. Dave). He refused to be paid for videos before he took a look in-depth at my instruction. He made that extremely clear to the team (NY Times attorneys/About.com sports editors/video producers). So I will continue to point out that he, being one of the nicest pros in our sport, signed off on my instruction before taking shot one. And that he is a person of integrity who would not have shot videos for my Guide Site at About.com before looking INTENTLY at my offerings there.
HOWEVER, these two associations are going back 12 years? 15 years? And they and I are busy people who forget stuff, so ANYONE who sends a PM (I'm not posting contact information on a forum without permission) can receive RECENT student, pro and teacher references for my character, instruction and play.
Edit: I've been pondering this post since I made it, and I apologize to everyone at AZ, for not being clearer about my associations to begin.

Tom Rossman and others have seen me teach, do trick shots and run tables.
"I do bet you could promise a super-duper top-secret, certified, notarized, officially sealed letter with Dr Cue's stamp of authenticity, that detailed your most excellent instructing abilities."
No, but I'd like to put you in touch with Tom Rossman by PM, after which you can come back to the thread and apologize publicly to him, and to me. Your insinuations like "But they're also born again Christians, so they support you" is a different way of calling them liars, which is doubly offensive.
PS. All you'd have to do to "finish me" is take a free lesson and then tell everyone what I did wrong. You WANT to keep trolling, that's why you are.
Saddens me because a lot of my free hours become two or three-hour free lessons and making good friends, too. I'm sure you're a cool guy to hang out with, but you come off like a stinker here. Sorry.

HOW DARE YOU, sir? I don't just pose on the Internet!
I'm also a book poser (I posed so well I was pre-paid royalties to be published by Cengage Thompson with the first-ever billiards book meant to be a college instruction text--which book sold out as thousands of copies), a magazine columnist poser, 3-hour DVD published poser, etc. as per my signature. My About.com site had hundreds of pool instructional articles, many of which are still online in the site's restructuring, but all of which were faked by me in both the old and new sites.
Oh! And don't forget I invented my next scam, a fake clinic I'm not teaching with U.S. Open Winner Tom Kennedy (he actually faked winning it), for next month.
Everyone's claims on Earth are self-promoting, perhaps you should be self-promoting being banned from AZ Billiards four times or so.
BILLIARD’s A. You are very intelligent and express yourself quite well …. But how about showing your stuff. Give us a preview of what you offer. What are you hiding. I’m curious. Sight unseen does not work. I have a gut feeling you teach bangers and they become upscale bangers
About the only thing double o is good at is twisting other people's words around in an attempt to change the original meaning. His last 3 posts demonstrate that very well.
Oh and he has a real good memory. He remembers all these people who worked with/for him but none of them remember him.
You'll just have to forgive those feeble minded folks, it was a long time ago.

That has changed. He is now one of the "protected" ones and can post whatever is desired. A strong tie with a couple of other
respected members in high places of the forum certainly doesn't hurt either.
Me, I teeter on extinction every day. Do I cause it? Oh hell yeah! I'm not about to be bullied by ignorance, lies, and character assassination to me and those really in the know about a specific subject in pool. And it usually revolves around him and two others. But when the "fix" is in, the "fix" is in! Life doesn't end with or without it. Cancel Culture is expanding everywhere.

"and others"...lol
At this point, it's probably best to keep these people unnamed as everyone you mention doesn't seem to remember who you are.
Again with the secret meeting/pm nonsense.
As far as the Christian stuff, I think YOU are taking advantage of THEIR charitable Christian nature. Being continually deceptive on here, with a cross around your neck isn't a good look.
Not trolling just speaking clearly. You should try it.
How many times do I and most likely -- any decent player on this site with a touch of sense, have to tell you we aren't interested in your lessons?
I'm not perfect. You certainly have some good qualities. That's why I think you're an enigma. You handle yourself well in interviews it seems, appear to be a decent public speaker, and you're probably a good salesman. All things I'm not. Your one glaring deficiency -- you don't speak the truth, while running from it!
Actually, you are not speaking clearly.
I'm sure your gut feelings are often correct, but I get flamed for not hiding, I frequently post lessons and individual coaching here at AZ.
I kind of like "Upscale Bangers" for a league team name, pretty cool.
I've heard differently, and was told his next ban, if it does come, will be permanent. So I assume he is a masochist.
Post a video and you’ll get 2 Likes!!
Ain't gonna happen. Neither the next one or permanent.
I would like to preemptively protest any ban of Dr. @Patrick Johnson. This place would become 70% less fun without him.
I agree, he also helps my teaching greatly, if he disagrees, I'm correct, if he sides with someone and flatters and compliments them, they are identified as a troll.
Patrick is way more authentic than you, bud. I suspect the forum people have you both figured out, but you are just a hot mess. Which is why you're getting the justdumb treatment. Good luck though.
Serious question, off the top of my head, there are a lot of people who demonstrate techniques on YouTube, I think one person only actually posts lessons as they are given. Can you think of someone at AZ who posts their lessons, live or after?
If you are asking about my technique demonstrations, I have out there a three-hour DVD, just me, the camera and a table. I have hundreds of instruction articles online and in print.
Yessir, he's quite authentic. That would explain his being banned from AZ, because he's so real.
If you continue to confuse "vicious, angry, cruel" for "authenticity", I'd humbly suggest an anger management therapist.
Is that still true if I post a video, "My pro friends stay off AZ because of the trolls"?
