Lightbulb Just the way I was taught.

I was always taught to say abosolutely nothing at the table, but the number and maybe "out of bounds" or "shooting two" of example. Saying "hack" or "block" or "push" can give a coach more ammo to say somthing like, "no he did not!!"

I really do not even say anything at the spot of the foul (I am sorry it is football season) when I make the call for the most part. I might only do so if I have a block or I need to wave off a shot. Then I might only say "no shot" or something that indicates the situation. But saying little or nothing is best.

Peace
