Rather than a verbal reply to an inappropriate comment, if I feel it can't be ignored I'll simply give him the stop sign. They all know what that means, and if they choose to ignore it they do so at their own peril.

I totally get what you're saying. My response to that "question" would be pretty simple: "Coach, that's not a question about the play. We're done for now," and I move on.
