You are acknowledging that the coach exists and that he's concerned about what's happening, and that's all. It really, really helps.

I'm gonna try to use this one - so Rain, "Thank you."
I learned first hand from two evaluators this weekend a Stop Sign is NOT to be used in our league - I'll file that one too!
