Message: [QUOTE="TheCusian, post: 4185342, member: 2585"] I often take the opposite side of arguments to try to help see the whole picture more clearly. There’s a real tendency for group think to take root quickly without a real deep dive into the whole of it. Which leads to a point not a lot of people have shared: I think it can amount to a nothing burger for the player to whom the comment has already been stated in private, upon which a relationship is the basis. If my son and I have already talked about him holding the ball too much on the soccer field, and he overhears me talking to his modified coach about it - the worst he can say is that I’m consistent in my criticism. He can disagree on the substance. And he may not like it. But lucky for the two of us, it’s built on years of relationship and love. [/QUOTE]
