He slapped me on the back and said, "No problem. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings." and walked away smirking.

I wish I had been carrying Mark Padgett around in my hip pocket for a clever comeback. Alas, I didn't have one.

"coach, there's nothing you could say that would hurt my feelings. however, if you keep acting like a middle school coach you'll get a Technical!"
