Merry Christmas!
Except that I expect the coaches to use my name and I want to use theirs.

Respect? I have as much for the coach as I expect to receive from them.

I know one thing -- this is a purely individual thing, just wanted to get out there that there are some of us who introduce ourselves to the coaches by first name and already know their names when we meet them (so we can use them: Jim, Great to see you tonight. I'm Rich. Etc.).
