PlayPlayer's as_player() function not working as expected

[ryantuck]

q_brady = nfldb.Query(db)
q_brady.game(season_year=2015, season_type='Regular', week=1)
q_brady.player(full_name='Tom Brady')
for pp in q_brady.as_play_players():
    print pp.player()

yields:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 21, in <module>
    print x.player()
TypeError: 'Player' object is not callable

and from the source code in nfldb/types.py:

    @property
    def player(self):
        """
        The `nfldb.Player` object that this "play player"
        corresponds to. The player is retrieved from the database if
        necessary.
        """
        if self._player is None:
            self._player = Player.from_id(self._db, self.player_id)
        return self._player

Should this function be leveraging a query to return this player? Or calling a blank Player().from_id(...) constructor? Or am I just doing something wrong?

The @property decorator changes the syntax of that attribute. I think you'll find print pp.player instead of print pp.player() as a function call will spit out what you're trying to obtain.

@ochawkeye that indeed did it. thanks!
