Beside if I show them where the lines are many times they are more concerned about being in the box then yelling at us...
One time in a state tournament I knew we had a coach that was very vocal (had watched him for a couple of days) I told him in our little meeting that I was hard of hearing and if he was yelling at us I probably wouldn't hear him and told him if he wanted a T/O he needed to be very visible........Didn't hear a peep out of him the entire game...........So was I wrong...........Don't think so.

I never said you had to justify anything. I just know it's not my style. I say hi, good luck, ask the required apparel/sportsmanship questions, and move on.
Happy holidays.
