Part of my problem is that I hear all the chirping and don’t necessarily know whence it comes. :)
Unless I take the time to look at the bench and acknowledge them, I don’t know if it’s coming from the HC, the AC, B12, or grumpy Dad. If I know it’s from the bench, but not the HC; I’ll ask the HC to address it. If it’s constant from the HC, I might remind him that I’ve done this before. |

I'm still laughing over the "Sorry Robin, I only talk to Batman" comment on another thread - I cannot WAIT to use that one.:D

Not just whining about calls - We have a team that chants " ..... and one" on every contested shot - in essence pining for a call.
Shut it down. There is no question that for an official the hardest call to make is one a player, fan or coach beats you too |

Juulie - you know the stuff I use.
On counts to three -"Wow! Someone's been watching Sesame Street" or "You finally learned how to count to three? Good for you!" or "If you count any higher, will you have to take your shoes off?" or "You can count all the way to three? You must go to public school!" And we all know the standard - "When you count out loud, it makes me lose count and I have to start over". |

From Wikipedia: "Urdū is often contrasted with Hindi, another standardised form of Hindustani. The main difference between the two is that Standard Urdū is written in Nastaliq calligraphy style of the Perso-Arabic script and draws heavily on Persian and Arabic loanwords, while Standard Hindi is written in Devanāgarī and has inherited significant vocabulary from Sanskrit. Linguists therefore consider Urdū and Hindi to be dialects of the same language.[3] Together Hindi-Urdu is the second most widely spoken language in the world." |
Is it just me, or has this been the season of Assistant coaches doing all of the chirping. The only problems that I have had from coaches this year have all been the assistants, not the HC.
PS, I usually tell the HC the first time I hear anything from the bench "Coach, your bench is getting ready to cost you your coaching box privilages" and they tend to fix the problem right away. If they don't, the T comes out. |

In one of my first ever varsity contests, we had an assistant coach questioning calls. My partner (very prominant college official) calmly walked over and told the assistant coach that he only had 3 reasons for being in the gym. #1 help the head coach keep track of fouls/timeouts #2 learn how to coach from the head coach #3 "Most importantly to drive the bus, and I don't listen to the bus driver!"
Kinda like the Batman and Robin line! |
