I find myself forgetting that goons even have edge (Profession Rating for whole group) most of the time. When I do remember, it usually goes for a lucky shot at the group's tank...I mean troll or on defense rolls.
On a related note, do you ever spend edge for your Johnson's Negotiations tests?
Most of the Johnson's have a rather low Negotiations Dice Pool compared to a face, but at the same time with the Johnson only in one or two scenes during the run, I almost feel like this a low-ball move to pull. That said, I've gotten in the habit of doing it mostly because my group's face does it every mission to increase pay.
