Oh Studmuffin... come over here and learn this coach a few things about those rules you know so well.....

I wanted to be the first female coach to do something and now you have a first also. Too bad it's not in a real game, wait.. I don't coach real games, just those youth rec things.

PS. I purposely put 0 in the score book for my 00 player last game and no one t'd me, no one said a word, no one even noticed. I AM INVINCIBLE!!! I wonder what else I can get away with next time....

Coach G
I wouldent get to carried away with this, or do it to many times.

Some may say that it may look bad if the other coach over hears that relationship. That coach is more than welcome to call me by my first name. If I am on the court and they call me by my first name then I will address them by their first name.

I kind of feel that it helps break down some imaginary barrier that some feel makes us be the controller of the game and above everthing else. You usually find those types of relationships in college ball also. I hardly ever hear a coach say hey ref, or the official say hey coach.
For the most part, I agree! I definitely use the coach's first name when I have to get his/her attention to see what kind of timeout he/she wants after they've requested one.

When the coach wants to be a jerk or if I'm having any problems with him...then I may need to turn back to "Coach..."...and forget calling by first name.
