I personally prefer to work the big game. I like to see the plays being made, the pitchers painting the plate, etc. I even enjoy having the coach come discuss a call - note I said discuss. I feel they have a job to do, that includes defending their team. I find that I have fewer issues with the coaches teh higher the level of play. However, the "meaningless" games get NO discussion about the calls - that's VERY nice. I'd rather be out there with the intensity of the big game. It may be left over from my playing days, but I just love that rush.

I have no problem doing lower level games, I hope I never feel that "I'm too good for that." But if you gave me a choice, I'm doing the big game - pay doesn't matter. To me the "easy money" doesn't come from the slow, error filled games - that's HARD work, even with a partner. I want to get as far as I can get with my ability, and being selected to do the big games is an indicator that my ability is improving and has been noticed.
