I got a funny one for you guys. This past weekend i was working FJ and i was in position on the sidelines to drop the bean bag on the PSK. The def coor. from the sidelines came over to me and asked me to watch a player. I agreed. The ball was snapped and the HL called illegal procedure on the offense. The def. coor goes ballistic at me telling me i need to watch the game and help my fellow officials because they obviously dont know what they are doing (mind you, i am 30+ yards down the field away from the play). the following dialogue takes place:

Me: Coach, i'm back here with you, how can i possibly see the procedure call from back here.

Coach: dont try to fool me, i know you didn't see the penalty.

Me: Right Coach, i didn't see it, how could i

Coach: (begins to yell at the other officials) see, see your other official here didn't see the penalty. You guys are cheating us!

Me: Coach calm down, i didn't see the penalty because i cannot see the line of scrimage from way back here, nevermind call a penalty on the line of scrimage.

Coach: Why arn't you watching the play then, are you trying to play some game with me...I'll go N**ger on you on this field

Me: **Looking at him like he has three heads** Ok coach...

I laughed the whole play and it made for a great laugh on the way home with the other guys. I never heard that before and dont know what it means. Looking back, it's technically a threat, but it was too funny to flag.
