As BJ I have the kicking team on free kicks. When one team is really scoring a lot on the other team I get to meet the kicker quite frequently at the 40 yd line. After several consecutive kickoffs, I will say to the kicker about placing it on the tee, "Last time you had the ball upside down." Also,I might say, "We've got to quit meeting like this, people are going to talk." Or, "That last drive was too fast, try to slow it down so you run time off and we get home sooner." Last night I meant it because I wanted to see the Red Sox-Yanks game. I will also compliment him on his team's drive or if it is the team that is way behind, but finally scores, they deserve a compliment too.
