As the man in charge of the PSP since its split with the NPPL , Lane shouldered the burden of captaining the PSP ship through all sorts of rough weather , from day-to-day operations and the promotion of its events through numerous format and rule changes to being answerable to the league ’ s ownership on one end , and its players on the other .
