Actual pregame from earlier this year:

"Hey, guys, have fun. Don't hack each other to death. And don't chew our ears off."

Players laughed and went back to warm ups.

The two teams then proceeded to butcher each other for 40 minutes, taking a moment every 30 secs or so to b**** about calls.

*SIGH*, back to the drawing board.

Players play. We ref.
Sportsmanship is expected.
Have fun and good luck.

I'll do better once I've had coffee.

Nothing wrong with this. He's just making sure that all the officials have proper positioning. Right, Dan???

Rub your balls!

As for the rest: Mick said it best, pregame is the warning, there will be no more. And the player who let's the ball roll away? We can all stand there until hell freezes over but I will not move a muscle to get it, nor will I ask someone to get it. And my partner better not either. Someone will get it, eventually.

I like:

If you want to play we'll let you play, if you don't want to play we're blowin our whistles and shooting freethrows early and often.
