Explain this!
A thought that's been mulling in my head:
Why is it that the only place you can be considered a master and never have actually executed your supposed mastery is in the MA's?
A master chef's gotta cook... a master painter's gotta paint, a master welder's gotta weld.
Yet, you've got people out there who've never sparred full contact, never fought, never done anything really, to demonstrate mastery--or even competency of any sort--that are teaching.
What gives?
