I keep it short and sweet after introductions.
"Help us out and take care of any issues that come up with your team and help us out with the ball the when it goes out. Questions?"
I've stopped asking my partner if he has anything to add because inevitably, everything I purposely left out "black line all around", "defense with feet", "this is your warning now", "tuck jerseys in" etc get added back in.
ETA: There are some partners I want to introduce as "This is Mr. Official Smith, based upon the last game we just worked, he will call the whole game and I will be simply standing here waving my arm around from time to time and helping him inbound the ball." I've managed to refrain from doing so however.
