you speak about not caring about transient meaningless concerns like "winning" and "losing", but for me, i practice it every day! i figure i want to train, hoping to turn my trainees into starters sometime over the next two seasons -- not a difficult task, actually, but one that entails losing 80% of my games. but i figure, what can be done to me? where can i be relegated?
you, on the other hand, have a monopoly on the precious $5000 - $7000 player, smart enough to be good, and good enough to be smart, who i remember from distant seasons past were very very good at this level --
so, Mr. Rabbit, you are off -- eventually this turtle may catch you.
