A scrimmage is the best opportunity to do some things that you never have the time nor the option of doing in a regular season contest. Coach goes nuts? You go over and say that absolutely, positively will get you the T in the regular season. Players act silly, taunting, physically challenging each other? Blow the whistle and say if you yahoos do this in a couple of weeks you're not going to see the end of the game. You actually have to watch some players closely during this time because their football season just ended or they're still in the playoffs and they still have the mentality that they're on the football field. I see it every year.
