Fan needs to go back to school
 
Last night, A1 goes in for a layup and B1 makes a clean block with absolutely no body contact and knocks the ball OOB. I call it that way. Some fan yells, "Learn the difference between leather and skin!" I'm not kidding, that's what he said. I looked at him and replied, "Leather is skin, Brainiac." He got that deer in headlights look. For a moment, I thought we were on "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?".

Nice but....
 
Nice comeback, made me laugh. But.... i have only had problems engaging the crowd in conversation, i like to stick with the "no talking to spectators" rule. Saves the headache

You have to call goaltending, he hit the ball on the way up!

Duh no wonder we didnot call it.

Not so cut-and-dry at the youth level. Most are not taking the game that seriously. You have to read your audience.
