I used that stratagey last week and it would just like it always has, PERFECTLY. But it only works before the game or at halftime.

As for the second part of your questions Chrissportsfan - when a coach is none stop during the game I do a number of different things. I have gone as far as telling a college coach that he is like the boy who cried wolf, I have just stopped believing him because he has a comment or complaint ever possession. I often also say that we as a crew are working hard and the coach is being a distraction. I am amazed oh well coaches respond when I tell them they are distracting me from doing my job. This really works well in the second half when there team is on offense in front of their bench. I will say something like "I really have to believe that you want my full attention on the play - and I am having a hard time doing that with your comments."

Every coach, games and situation is different but those have worked well for me.
