I'm still looking for a good reason that the notion of a captain exists, at least in HS ball. I suppose I'm technically incorrect by not asking the captains if they're ready to play before the toss, but I'm just crazy enough to believe that if they're 10 players on the floor, we're ready.

I'm under the same kind of thinking here. 10 players on the floor, 2 in the circle ready to jump, 2 coaches complaining already..AHHH 'Tis the season for basketball. I guess I'm afraid of the old come back if I ask ... "Are you ready?" ... "Nope, we are just out here for our health." But I usually don't ask.
