Joel,

You need to take just one more step

When the coach demands you give him an answer, just stick out your right hand and ask him/her for $5.

When asked why, your response should be, "We train umpires for nothing, Coach. Until you become an umpire, you will have to pay for the clinics."

You can trust me when I tell you he will NOT be pleased with you after that one!
