He is the captain of the team; the one who sets the course, the pace and the rhythm of the group, whether on offense or defense. Whether for a “set” play or an ad hoc fast break requiring creativity and quick thinking, the point guard directs, plans, initiates and commands.
If he hogs the ball and fails to dish out to the open play maker, he falls short in his role and endangers the emotional character of the team by allowing for resentment and loss of confidence. If he becomes reluctant in taking the open shot himself, or takes it and doesn’t score, he allows for the potential loss of confidence in himself.
The point guard, in short, is the most important position to fill in the most competitive of group sports: basketball.
Similarly, in an Federal Disability Retirement case, who directs, commands and coordinates the amassing of the necessary documents? Who is in charge of directing the legal arguments to be made? Who will initiate the process of preparing, formulating and filing an effective Federal Disability Retirement application through the defensive giant of the opposing team — the U.S. Office of Personnel Management?
Contact an attorney — your point guard — in preparing, formulating and filing an effective Federal Disability Retirement application under FERS.
Sincerely,
Robert R. McGill, Lawyer
