I've gone on record in the past as saying this doesn't bother me, like it does some of y'all. But the other day I was watching ag ame where this one girl was doing this, whether or not the ball was anywhere near her, and whether or not she was on defense. In other words, all the time. She had an incredibly high, screechy voice, and was unbelievably loud. If I had been working, I'd have been tempted to call a time-out, just to get a break from it.
Juulie - the Davism to deal with a girl calling "ball, ball, ball, ball, ball" right in front of you is that every time she says the word "ball", you quickly say, "yes, it is a ball." The conversation sounds something like this - "ball", "yes it is a ball", "ball", "yes it is a ball", "ball", "yes it is a ball", "ball", "yes it is a ball" - they usually quit about then.
