Quarterback throws another incompletion

Bill: I'll not name the quarterback of the projectile -- lololol. So, we could all do better -- and we should all try to limit our egregious behavior to non-personal exhibitions.
That cup bounced pretty high! I could favorably adjust my behavior OTB, to be more like Norm or David Rockwell for instance. However, I always try to be fair, and to be honest I apologized to Norm for tossing his cup.
As a matter of fact, I am so tired of his ugly old Aries board, I am buying him a new Brazilian one... With the help of a few selected friends of his... So he will have new cups next time, and perhaps I can throw more of a spiral with one of them? (!)
BILL: I think it unfortunate if Norm lost the match in the manner you described. Norm, though it is not his nature, probably should have been more assertive to protect his interests, WCE perhaps should have been more sensitive to the circumstances, and maybe Patrick should review his policies and his judgements -
Joe spent half an hour trying to explain to Norm why he viewed the situation differently, and Norm didn't accept too much of it. Norm will probably be more assertive in the future... and he should not have forgotten to center the clock, but the right solution would have been for Joe to insist on resetting it to an agreeable reset... He just didn't.
Patrick got an email from me and a phone call from Norm a day or two later... Pat is proactive and agrees that Joe took advantage of Norm, but that is water under the bridge. He will solicit more input from the players involved in the future...
