1. No balk.
2. Never let people see you eject a coach as he is walking away. He warned him too many times and missed a couple of good opportunities to dump him face to face. If the coach throws a line at you while walking away, say to him quietly, with no gestures, "You're gone coach, time to leave." When he turns around and says "WTF" Give him the big heave. (I need to credit my young second cousin, twice removed, who is working in the minors for this technique)
