Most Hurtful Thing You've Ever Heard From a Coach

Tell him you've been looking for a good one, and ask him if he has any recommendations.

Wash your own clothes!

As for the hair gel:
You like it? Gel might have helped with your comb over before you started to go bald!

Not hurtful but one I got from a real jack *** this weekend.

FIBA rules; Team A has possesion, double foul is called in the paint so penalties cancel and A gets the ball back on the base line.

Coach of team B asks what the call is and why AP is not used for the throw in. I explain to Coach B all is good walking out on the floor I was approximately midcourt when I see Coach from team A walking on the floor yelling at me Whats the call, repeatedly. I stop him ask him e step back to the sideline then tell him quickly. "Double foul, penalties cancel, A possesion end line" and I walk away to get play started.
He yells across the floor, "You know you talk to him so I expect the same. Respect is a 2 way street on the court."
Unbelieveable, then he wouldn't let it go at half comes over and starts complaining about fouls etc. asked him to stop complaining about every call and ended up giving him a T.
Great game, Good times.

Remember that scene in Indiana Jones when the bad guy starts with all the fancy swordplay and Indy just pulls out his revolver? It's like that sometimes.

I read that Harrison Ford inserted that bit, which was not in the script. They had filmed the various fight sequences, and Ford asked Steven Spielberg, "Hey, why am I fighting with this [expletive] whip when I have a gun right here?"

Spielberg said, "Hm. Good point. Shoot the next guy."

Now that's film directing!

It's one of the classic moments in action film history.

It's highly unusual, in fact. It's exceedingly rare prior to that moment in action film history that killing a man gets a huge laugh. Cheers, yes, but not a laugh.

Yeah - sometimes I can't decide between giving a coach a technical or just smacking him upside the head with a frying pan. Sometimes the frying pan wins.

Guess I will be putting "Frying Pan" on my Christmas list.

Also, in regards to the Indy scene, he actually had dysentary pretty bad which is what prompted him to just shoot the guy so he could visit his "trailer". Still great scene!

Gee? I didn't see this listed a few weeks ago when we were discussing what to pack in our bags.
