I must have no credibility at all with my team. Maybe I don't get it. We had an over all losing record this year. When I look at kid's faces, they don't give a rip about that. I see excitement about the next event and talking about improvements for next year. Winning is nice, but that is not the reason I do what I do. Yeah, maybe I just don't get this competition thing.
