My advice to 1st year guys is to ignore more than talk. You don't have any credability, YET, you don't have much experience, YET, and your terminology probably needs some work.

You asked a great question...but, it is kind of like a 21 yr. old guy asking some "experienced" bar hoppers what you should say to that good looking young lady over at the bar.

(If you don't know what to say...just stand there and look pretty)

It will come to you as you gain experience.

A better question, what does an official say to a hot, single, mom sitting in the stands? "Do you come here often?" "So, are you a big basketball fan?" "Do you think that these stripes are slimming?" "How'm I doing?" "Can I buy you some popcorn?"

Great advice, IMO.
