He may well want his students to learn to make decisions and live by them, but that's not really the focus of the discussion. My question was not in regards to what he hopes his students to get out of the season, it was in regards to his statements about giving an 100% effort to win each match.
No, see, you're trying to play a game of 'gotcha', and I'm not playing. I'm not refusing to play your gotcha game to annoy you, but I'm not terribly concerned if that's a side-effect.

As for the rest, I think Alan said it as well or better than I can.
