Do you believe in talking very much or would you rather let your whistle do the talking?
If you are a "talker"; what phrases do you use and what phrases would you avoid?

Talk early - this lets everybody get settled into the game.
"Out, gid out" is an easy phrase for shooing players out of the paint - avoid anything with a hard 'P' sound if the whistle is in your mouth.
