I do not remember if it was here or another forum, but someone posted a time when after a coach drew a line in the dirt the umpire drew an arrow to the parking lot, and the coach to follow it.

That is one of those things I would love to do to a coach, but fear that it might appear over line (really no pun intended) and arrogant.

I would also love the chance to sit in the stands with my gear on. Plop down next to a mouthy fan, and say play ball. Then when I start to get odd looks say, "Well obviously this is the best place in the park to call balls an strikes from."

But to get back to the question at hand, most any time a player/coach begins or ends a sentence with the magic word... you.
