AK,
Sounds like you really have learned some good lessons; I think your dad's a wise man. Those questions sound a lot like the ones I heard from my own dad growing up, and ones I constantly try to pass on to my team. Even in a loss, you can find reasons to hold your head up.
Had to laugh..."don't be an idiot, mark your back post" was a running theme from our last trip to Wando...I think I woke up in the middle of the night yelling "Back post!"
At any rate, I hope you get to take those lessons back with you into coaching soon. I think there are a lot of young players who would benefit.
