I ask them nicely two questions:

2. coach, are you saying we are cheating?

because, I want to know exactly what this technical fouls is for.

DISCLAIMER: I use these on coaches who are buttholes.
Cubsfan,

I have not reffed much HS or college ball and this might be acceptable at those levels but the league I work in this would not be condoned, period! Always think "professional" when responding. One-liners get you nowhere! Short professional responses keep you out of the soup. Experience, sadly enough, is king in responding skills. If you would like you can PM me and I will email you a responding skills presentation from our league. It will aid you but not give you a "one size fits all" response.
