Coach "You can't call that"
Me " Yes I can, I just did"
Player "Hey Ref he's holding me"
Me "Probably because your holding him" (player cracked up)
Me "Coach I enjoy talking to you, but your assistant has no people skills. You might want to tell him to keep his comments to himself"
Coach "You are the only one in the gym that saw that foul"
Me "Good thing this isn't a democracy"
I have a few more but will refrain. The one thing that I KNEW I had to contral was my sarcasm and quick tongue. This has led to not talking with coaches as much as I should, but it is better that then saying something they may misunderstand
