The tip is... Don't be afraid to concede early!
This isn't Guantlet or Champs. It's not time to show how mentally tough or gritty you are at the game. No one needs to be sitting through long ass hell games when you're just trying to get your wins done.
You start on Offense and fail to score a tuddy... CONCEDE!
You start on Defense and give up a tuddy... CONCEDE and do so before your opponent goes for two!
Follow this advice and you'll get your wins done early. Besides you'll help others get their wins faster as well.
