No, that's just the way you heard it. We all have selected hearing. We hear what we want to hear and throw away the rest. Some of us like to add to what we hear, expand the meaning to that of what is not being said. For ex: you make it sound as if what they (the coaches, fans, etc) think are the only factor. You see, you expanded on what you heard because I never said that. My position on protecting quality players is to create a game where they will want to come back and play again. Thus bringing there friends and other top quality talent. You see, if the quality talent thinks they going to get job'd everytime they play here, they're not coming back, and then I'm not going to want to come back. So, I have a vested interest. I'm not just there to collect a paycheck and I'm not going to hang around very long doing garbage ball.

Peace
