<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">What do you think the Aff burdens should be? <span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: 'times new roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">The affirmative needs to prove that they have a good solid workable case that is supportive by a preponderance of the evidence. They need to present a workable plan that is cohesive with the case that they are promulgating.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">What do you think the Neg burdens should be? <span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: 'times new roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;"> The negative has the burden of refutation. At some point they need directly to clash with some of points made by the affirmative. They should not try to warp the round until the negative sets the grounds and topic for the debate. There should be some semblance of the initial topic choice of the affirmative

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">How I feel about delivery (slow vs. fast)? <span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: 'times new roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Medium. I do not like double clutching…..I do not like the impression it gives that someone could pass out soon. I do believe that there still needs to be a modicum of speaking skills exhibited in what started as a speaking event.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">How I feel about generic Disads, Counter Plans, Kritiks?

<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: 'times new roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">I am ok with generic disads. I do not like negatives that run counter plans and kritiks that are sponges to soak up time and then they kick out of them. If the negative elects for a specific strategy then they should not kick out of it.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">How I feel about case debates? <span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: 'times new roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Ok.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">Other Comments/Suggestions: I do tend to be old fashioned and I am aware of that. I like a good logical debate with points made in round. I have nothing against a negative strategy but it needs to be well articulated. If the negative opts for an elaborate counterploy then they need to defend it and stick with it. I will listen to games playing and vote on it. I may not particularly like it.
