Here's a few to get started. How about......
Call 'em on both ends!

Somebody is going to get hurt if you don't get control!

Let 'em play!

You are the worst official I have ever seen!

That is the worst call I have ever seen!

You're getting paid for this?

3 seconds!

On the back!

Moving screen!

How can fouls be 5 to 0?

Get 'em off!

It's not a stupid one, but I personally like:

"Go back to Foot Locker!"

Cool

Actually, using the words "stupid", "comment", "fan" and "coach" in the same sentence is redundant.

I loved it when coaches would holler "THREE SECONDS" when the ball was still in the back court. And when the ball was being tapped under the basket with no one in control.

Same coach, depending on which end of the court the ball is in, "Get them off his back", or "Let them play".

My all time favorite is...

"Bend over and use your good eye!"

My all-time favorite stupid-coach remark was when a coach said to me, "Oh, I never read the rule book..." He said it in front of the opposing coach, and me and my partner. When he started yelling the "over the back" and "three seconds" stuff, I took the first opportunity to say, "The next time you think about questioning a call, remember who has read the rules and who hasn't." Didn't hear another peep the rest of the game. What an idiot!

Smile Good Stuff!!

I'll have to remember the "...Foot Locker", "...one good eye", and "...cyclops" lines. Never know when I might need one.
Hey anyone seen my bananas?
Coach EG

Speaking from the dark side, had this ref's comment once, may even count as a Davism. I had a weak defender at the four spot, B1. A1 gets ball and backs up to him, no contact yet. A1 picks up his free elbow, spins, and whack's B1 square in the nose. I shout "Hey, he picked up his elbow!" Ref. "Hey, he put his face there!"

Watching some buddies work a play-off game last night..."visiting" team (neutral court) was wearing purple...before toss, R does the point and say "White this way, Blue this way" routine...visiting coach - from out of our area - yells "We're wearing purple - are you blind?" I honestly thought he was going to get whacked before the game even started...probably the stupidest thing I heard all year...at least until 3 min to go in first quarter when the same coach yelled "Yep, I guess you are blind" when R calls white ball on oob play...yep - he got whacked...

Thanks for the English lesson. I'll try to improve my redundancy.
