HEY, COACH!!!

Sometimes when you call a block on a kid, he may know that the ref is correct, but wants to encourage the kid to keep trying, so he will say, "good job, that was good defense" or something like that. He told me, that is not a slight at the refs at all. But, doesn't want his kids to stop trying by yelling at them that they didn't do it right.

Sorry, but I call bull****.

Plenty of other ways to get that message across without directly (and loudly) contradicting my call. 999/1000 times the coach is saying "the ref blew it", not "nice effort, keep trying".
