#1016: Yours or Mine? Don’t Wind Up in “Divorce Court”

 
 

#1016: Deb "PicklePongDeb" Harrison calls the middle of the court "Divorce Court" because people bicker over whose shot it should have been when a ball flies past them both. Players should call it: "Mine"..."Me"..."I go"... Or conversely indicate to a partner: "Yours"..."You"... Or if you are lobbed, "Help!" Much better than saying "We should have talked" after you lose the point!

In this episode you’ll hear:

  • Why you should communicate on every point—even the obvious ones

  • The simplest fix: “I go”

  • Why “yours” and “you” can actually create hesitation

  • How tone matters (calm > loud)

  • When to say “help”

  • The rule that changes everything: if you call it, you’re never wrong
