"you've got to call something!!!"
That's what a coach screamed at me right after my partner blew his whistle and signaled the ball went OOB. I turned to the coach, blew my whistle and yelled "ICING - we'll have a faceoff down at the blue free throw circle. There coach - I called something, OK?"
He got this puzzled look and just sat down. I guess it worked.

I get this a lot from JH coaches that are just volunteer coaches for the most part and don't really know the rules. My favorite was just a few weeks ago (I may have mention this one) where a coach was like "aren't you going to call anything?!" and then in the second half he yells "oh NOW you're calling something". WHACKED him with a T.
I once had a coach ask me loudly "hey, does your whistle work?!". To which I blew my whistle, T'd him up and said "hey, I guess it does work". |

I see in your profile that you attended the "U of Illinois in Horticulture". Being from Illinois originally, I'm familiar with the U of Illinois in Champaign, but I don't know where Horticulture is. Is it near Peoria?

Well, I would have written it out so it would've said "with a degree in Horticulture" but the character space in that area "About Me" ran out. Therefore I had to improvise, and I HOPED that people would get the gist of it. FYI Mark, it was the U of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign with a degree in Horticulture... Either way, I'm currently not near Peoria... |

I like your, "ICING," that's good. Another one you might try; jump up, land in a crouch, throw your arms out to the side palms down, and say with emphasis, "SAFE!" |

I've done something like that quite often. I make a fist with my thumb sticking out and yell "You're out". Of course, that has a different meaning.
