try that next time....OR...

"Coach did you see that play? (YES)...then you know it was a foul, you really can't complain about it, can you."

My supervisor said I shouldn't be so intent on being right b/c the game film might come back to bite you in the a$$ one day. He said either don't respond or ask a question like "did I miss it?" or "what did you see?".

Of course that's just his opinion (based on his own experiences), but since he is giving me games you best believe I will adhere to that advice.
