Go out and get plays right and the other stuff like tempo, flow, cadence, consistency and feel will just come naturally and come even sooner the harder and more work you put into it. Good luck and just go out and get plays right.

And this is my underlying attitude- I've still got too much going on, especially the beginning of the game, to have to remember a play 2 minutes or 2 quarters ago and to try to do the same. I'm OK with the theory of "be consistent on bang-bang calls" but I have to admit, if I'm not reminding myself of it before I get to my position on the lead, chances are I'm gonna see it, call it, report it and THEN I might remember what my partner called and cringe... hopefully before the coach remembers and tries to blast me for it.
And on the coaches complaining about it, I don't care. Maybe next year or even later on this year, I will care, but not now. "Coach I saw it clearly" is about all I'll say. Nothing about the last call...
