Attributes

[Mark Padgett]

OK - enough nonsense. Since the board is slow this summer, let's get into some philosophy.

List the three most important attributes you want in a partner. I'll start.

1) good rules knowledge
2) good communication skills
3) keeps importance of game in perspective by demonstrating occasional humor

I'm serious about the last one. There's nothing worse than working with someone who thinks a kids basketball game is the most serious event on the face of the earth.
