I’m trying to be polite here because we are all on the same side, but some of you make it incredibly apparent that you have not done competitive endeavors that do not include participation trophies. The coaches are going to do what they feel necessary to put their players in the best situation to reach their goals. As they should.
With that being said, a piece of advice would be to stop reading and listening to what other people say. 99.9% of their opinions do not matter, and not listening to them, nor acknowledging them, deprives them of the satisfaction of living in your head.
