Maybe I can satisfy -sohl by changing the end of the story. I call an official's time-out, calmly walk over to the sideline, pick out a player and inform the coach, "number 65 is his number, he was supposed to be in at left guard".

Like I said, this was the way I interpreted teh story the first time I read it:
It sounded like you were on that coaches sideline and he simply asked you and you just pretended that he wasn't there. That was the meaning that I got from the post. Did your wingman explain to him that he only had ten on the field or did he just tell him it was an illegal formation? If he had told the coach that he was short a player then the coach has bigger problems if he can't figure it out then.
Seeing that you left out some information and then getting that information enlightened me to the fact that the coach was not with it and that you were not being an a**hole. Yes your wingmans explanation should have been plenty, but the coach did not pay attention, hahahaha.
