I would have told you like I told this one coach. First thing you gonna have to do is go get a shirt. The next thing you're going to need is somebody to give you an assignment because this assignmnet is mined and you can't have it. However, I do have an extra whistle! The key thing here is now we're not talking about the play or call in question anymore. I have gotten your attention off the call and on to something else in which I'm in control of, even if it's briefly, but the conversation is now going in a different direction and my hidden message is clear. I've taken about all I'm going to take from you tonight. Notice how I never said that.
