Why do I care?

I don't concern myself with every nit or every imagined power struggle as it seems you do. Player asks me to watch for over the back, I'm going to smile and mumble "OK". Coach asks me to watch for over the back I smile and mumble "OK". If either asks again later I tell him I heard him the first time and haven't seen it since. It aint changing the way I call the game. Apparently you need to confront the coach about this for some reason...maybe you watch too much Oprah?

There's enough to keep me busy working the game. I don't get wrapped in perceived psycho-dramas.
