Hey Adam,
You're a pal and I respect your views, but this is where I have to differ:

Maybe you have a higher tolerance for dealing with the public than I would, but I would not "love" to do that (sign and schmooze). Pretty sure I would hate it, and so would a lot of people.

I'm sure a lot of these guys see it this way: being an athlete is my work. Having to chat up random people is not.

You can say then they shouldn't do public shows, and I already agreed that is reasonable. In an ideal world only the sweethearts would do them, and everybody would love it. But I also suggested an explanation for why it doesn't always work out ideally that I think helps to make sense of their behavior.
