I do mostly women's FP, but either way you look at it, you can't win!

It was also reccomended that, after all the spares have been hit out of play, it is not advisable to announce, "I HAVE NO BALLS":

No hears a less common admonition that I read somewhere, when addressing a female F1, do not use the term "Pitch"
(I'm not to good about heeding that one - but I try to ennunciate carefully)
