Imagine:

"Well, Tony/Jeff/Mark/Chuck/etc, I'd love to give you that Varsity playoff assignment, but I just can't. Your calls are excellent, your mechanics are great, and your partners say you're a joy to work with. I even had a coach come up the other day and say how fair and approachable you are.

But you're still saying stuff like "on the floor", "that way", and such. That's really incorrect. The players and coaches don't give a rat's a**, but it's still wrong. See you next season."
