The root of this was we prorbably felt a bit over our heads because with a Vet working with a newbie..the Vet carries you thru the tuff spots in a game..that gives you a backstop in my mind

Comments on this logic?

It means you'll go through the game with 4 eyes firmly on the basketball.

Just don't think that way, work your primaries, and (believe it or not) things will be OK. Instead of thinking that a vet will step up and help, make sure you're strong in your primary and get your own stuff (actually that's good advice no matter who you're working with).

Read and think about the comments above -- you guys DO NOT know when it's appropriate and when it isn't to expand your primaries.
