I hate drama
Remember how my hockey team all bailed on me last season, leaving me with 5 loyalists? I rebuilt, luckily inheriting a 3 on 3 team of 9 folks largely intact. Today I got an anonymous email from one of them with some valid concerns about me favoring the loyalists (which is true, they talk more so I hear them more) and certain folks playing different positions. What smarts about this is that they didn't tell me who they are. That's silly, I'm a grown up, you are too. Let's work it out, eh?

I work very hard at balancing the team's individual abilities, often putting myself on D when I'd rather play forward and moving folks around depending on who is there. I guess I haven't displayed how hard I work at that. I asked the team for their input on where they'd like to play, hopefully we'll get some pleasant surprises out of that request. Otherwise I don't know what to do, if people don't talk, I can't hear them....
