“Basically, you're still sitting there using just the muscles of your hand, really. Of one hand, actually. It's another example of the transfer of literacy to making music because the assumption is that everything important is happening in your head; the muscles are there simply to serve the head. But that isn't how traditional players work at all; musicians know that their muscles have a lot of stuff going on as well.

“I guess the prime example is in North America there's a thing where if there's no opportunity to move forward with the puck, then a [hockey] player is told to dump the puck into the other zone. Just give up the puck and dump it in. Give it to the other team. And to the Soviet mentality in coaching, it just doesn't make any sense. If you're a skilled player, why are you going to give the puck away to the other team? Just give it away, right?” IfsGivingAmericaMovingOpportunityPlayerTeamExampleGiving UpMoving ForwardCoachingZonePrimeHockeySovietMentalityDumpNorth AmericaPuckJust Give UpHockey Player Author:Gabe Polsky

“I feel confident that we will have a beginning, middle and end, in this season, and it was wise of NBC to then call it what it really is, which is a mini-series. "24" is a really good example, in that there was a definitive beginning, middle and end for the first season. They had a slightly different format than we have, but the second season just retained Jack Bauer and a few other players, with the same basic format and idea, but it was a completely different show.” FeelsFirstsIdeasDifferentEndsShowsWisePlayerMiddleExampleSeasonsSeriesFormatGood ExamplesNbcBeginning Middle And End Author:Remi Aubuchon
