Coach "Aw come on you gotta call something"

This one 99% of the time results in an immediate call "T"

It is more the way it is said than the actual wording, but usually with me it ends in the manner above

Good Luck coach and above all remember it is a game
How on earth can that be said is such a way that it's a "T" 99% of the time? You are one quick hombre.

LOL actually I have a pretty thick skin. Usually "you gotta make a call" or whatever form it takes is preceded by how come that wasn't this or you didn't see that lada lada lada, and I have usually said "coach I have heard enough" at which point I have heard "you gotta call something" so thus endeth the coaches box....To be honest there is only one coach that uses that one on me, and he is 3 for 3 to the best of my recollection...Nice guy usually, but there are times that we just don't agree on officiating philosophy....

Our last exchange went this way, after a no call that he rightfully had a beef with...after the no call as I head down court hey says (not loud enough for everyone to hear) Jes** Ch***. So we go down the court then back to his end I am trail table side, I hear you gotta call that down here. I just go about my business, while he keeps chirping, I hear enough that I say coach I let ya get away with the language now I have heard enough.

Coach "well I'm just tellin ya"
Me "coach don't "tell" me anything"
Coach "well you gotta make a call"
Me tweeeet "T"

what a way to start the season in the first 8th grade girls game of the year LOL
