Pennsylvania TedThanks for making my point in quite a "dramatic" way.
As a Softball team manager (at my workplace) for many years, I always tried to field a winning team. I had some tough decisions
to make. Most of my players were my upper management types, with big egos and certainly having an influence on my career at
my job.
Of course everyone wanted to win, and everyone wanted to play, and then go to our favorite "watering-hole" and have some cold
beers. I was very diligent in keeping Stats on all my players. So to be fair, I would grind their numbers every week and play the guys
who were producing in terms of RUNS (scored and driven in). I was called a "Billy Martin" by some, but they accepted my managing
practices.
After all, it paid off, we won 1st place Trophies 6 out of 10 years.
