Steps on Layup

This is my first year of officiating and after the normal pregame my 1st partner tells the two JH Girls that were the speaking captains to go back and tell your team there will be no hanging on the rim tonight. They gave him some funny looks until he told them he was kidding. I thought it was a nice way to break the girls tension on the opening night game.

And it will still be as hilarious the 100th time you hear someone say it...

I may be new to the female captains. Most captains are only captains for one year.

I don't remeber saying it was hilarious but it was entertaining to see the looks on their faces.

It was more meant as a tongue-in-cheek observation. The guy who says it (and it will never be me) always thinks it's hilarious. The players...rarely if ever will even react. Awkward chuckling at best. Unless you are a comedian, don't try and be funny with the players. They aren't listening to you anyway.
