Imagine if a football player told his coach..."You know what coach, I love playing on this team, but I just don't want to lift weights. I just hate going to the gym. But I just want to play football every day...I think I'll just play my own style of football." How well do you think that this revelation would go over with the coach? Now, to me this is the same thing as someone saying, "I love playing the drums, but I just don't want to play/learn rudiments. I think I'll just play my own style." Yeah, right.... It really isn't that hard to learn your rudiments...but once you learn them; you'll see that it's well worth your time!!! Thanks!
