Arrow More thoughts on new NF FT mechanic

With the new mechanic placing the trail near the benches but with his or her back toward the coach, I can imagine some of the conversations that will now come up.

Coach: "Hey - aren't you going to answer my question?"
Official: "Since my back is to you, I couldn't tell if the question came from you or some moron in the stands. Now that I'm facing you, I still can't tell."

Coach: "How could you make that call at this point in the game?"
Official: (with fingers sticking in ears) "LALALALALALALALALALALALALALALA..."

Coach: "Hey there. HEY there. HEY THERE!!!!!"
Official: (thinking to himself) "Hmmmm, I wonder what I'm having for dinner?"

And, the one I'm sure I'll get:
Coach: "The shooter went over the line. That's a violation!"
Official: "Coach, the shot went in. If I waive it off, we'll go into overtime. Get serious!"
