Not that my partners will even allow me to take the R once they know I'm a rookie, just in case. Thanks!

Coaches -- Hi, I'm Antonia Ann, and this is my partner, Aloysius. I just need you to answer the standard two questions, are your players all legally equipped, and are you requiring them to maintain attitudes of fair play and healthy sportsmanship? Good. ANy questions? Great. Have a good game.

Captains -- Please help your teammates with their attitudes, please remeind them to remove all jewelry, clippies and barrettes. You can ask us any question politely during any dead ball. Anything else we need to discuss? Good luck, have a good game.
