They each get five seconds." I reply, "Unless they changed the rules last night while I was sleeping, that's not the case, coach."
After the game (which team A won by about 25) when I was at the table getting things set up for the next game, Coach B came over and asked me the one question that almost makes me puke, "Are you sure?" My reply was "What do you think, coach - we just make this up as we go along?"
He just looked at me for about five seconds then turned around and left.

Oh sure he gets his own five second count. Unless he was within 5 feet of you and had a ball this seems unnecessary.
