Just send me your debit card number and PIN. If you actually do that, then this is the right book for you. ;)

Now instead of 1 PITA (pain in the a$$) you have the potential of the other coach crying about giving his opponent a call that he wanted.
This is where Padgett's "Coach - when you start counting like that it makes me lose count and I have to start over." comes in and you don't make the call:D

I forgot to add that I felt justified in my decision when, as my partner and I were leaving the floor, the coach broke off from the handshake line to yell at me "That's why you're not varsity."

It took everything within my power to not turn around and say, "Well, coach, looking at the scoreboard, that's why you're not varsity, either."

I think you need to come down here and give a clinic, people here take Basketball way too seriously. You and everyone here seem to have the right perspective about what high school and middle school athletics is all about. To many people get too wrapped up in this.

Wrong title?
 
Hey Padgett...wasn't your first book "Coaching BY Dummies"?:eek:

But seriously, I have told a coach on 3 second counts that every time he yells at me, I loose count and have to start over.

A coach once said that to me and I responded with "looks like we are both in the same boat eh?"

I'll be glad to do that. Just send me your debit card number and PIN so I can buy plane tickets. ;)
