My question is, are you required to say this to the coach before the game? If not, it really isn't needed since there are POEs every year. We aren't going to mention all the POEs before a game so why talk about the box?
Ron, I wouldn't give the assistant the time of day to tell them what their job is. You just opened up dialogue with the assistant coach. I wouldn't do that. Also, the best coaches that I've come across don't want cute/smart remarks. They want someone that is fair, not someone with funny one-liners. Fair to the point where they know you will T them up if they deserve it.

No, we aren't required to say anything to the coach about the box. It's just that coaching box management is hugely stressed in this state and mentioning it in the pregame conference usually helps out. That's all. Don't do it if you don't like it. It works for me and apparently for Ron too.
I always go shake hands with the assistant coaches before the game and greet them with a smile. They are people too.

Now that's just plain heresy.
