Ego in these cases makes people insensitive to how they work with others and it ends up interfering with the real goal of any group efforts. — Bill Walsh

Is there any chance the tutor is, you know, gay?" I held my breath, waiting for his answer.

Though if he did, he'd be a little out of my league." He sucked in and patted his stomach, which was made somewhat flat by his efforts.

I rolled my eyes. "Shut up."
