Second of all, I did listen to your ideas. I considered them. And then I disagreed with them. I'm sorry if that hurt your feelings.

If I could give you a big hug through the internet, I would.

Haha. Well put and fair enough. No feelings hurt here.

As my post says, I agree with the technical. I just try to avoid language that threatens a technical in an unltimatum way. When I can let a coach have the last word, I try to. When I can't, I act accordingly. (If the coach said that to me or a partner, It's likely to be the same outcome with me.)
