Here are also some scenarios that you are going to face and some advice for when you find your self there. I know the NHL (and other leagues too) give the rookies a conference to help them, but it's stuff like this that can also aid. The crap you're giving him here is unwarranted.
He gets crapped on because he still managed to make it about himself. Is there any reason to call it the "New Avery Rule"? Why not just talk about the advice without tagging it with your own name?
