I saw some howler monkeys on the animal channel a few months ago. My wife had no idea why I laughed so hard for so long.

Coach, you forgot another one of your very favorites:

"TRAVEL! That was a travel!!"

I love this one:

"Call the foul, ref!!!"
only to be followed by
"Let'em play!!!"

Cool

My all-time individual favorite (only heard once) is:

"HEY - that's a...a...a...a whatchamacallit!"

My new favorite from last night: After five or six fouls called against his team quite early in the game, the coach, mockingly feining sincerity, asks, "Is that how you call the game?"

Thought about Ting him up because he came clear down to the baseline to get in my face and ask. But only smiled and said yes. And then keep calling it very tight until halftime. Did I mention he only had six players?

BTW, it not only cleaned up that game, but the game that followed (same team).

Davism for that:

"OK, coach I will." (very loud with hand cupped over mouth) "THAT!"
