To be honest I would not explain none, because to be honest when the heat of the battle happens they are not goign to remember, so why even explain.

I would like to teach them on how to focus on there team during the time of the game, and leave us the YOU KNOW WHAT ALONE!!!

That is what I would like to teach them.

A good friend of mine is a high school varsity coach. He had a get together about 2 weeks before i had a game of his.

We talked abt a play and I explained to him the rule, he said ok I got it.

During the game that exact play happened, my partner called it. My friend ended up getting a T because he said he has never heard of that rule before. I saw him a week later and he said, man when i got home i rememberd the you and I had talked abt it, but during the game i totally forgot abt it.

So why talk to them. Coaches will be Coaches, Fans will be Fans, Players will be players and we totally stand alone during that game.!!!
