Checking Footballs

[Rich]

Properly equipped, anything for the umpire to check, anything he wants to run by us.

If it's more than 90 seconds, my umpire tells me to STFU.

* Intro of all by each - R/U/L/LJ/BJ
* Properly Equipped?
* Unusual plays/anything razzle-dazzle by design?
* You Calling the TO's? Kind reminder that he's only one recognized.
* Reminder of 3 in box when dead / all out when ball is live
* Halftime length reminder/being back on field in time reminder.
* Going inside at half ? Staying out?
* Any questions for us, coach?


Wish him good luck - then either mention we will talk with visiting coach and then take the captains or if it's visiting coach, mention we'll take captains right away.

If that takes more than 90 seconds, I'd be shocked.

We're all there by 5:50 or sooner. Dressed and out the door by 6:20, unless we have one of those lengthy hikes which are prevalent at some facilities here, then sooner.

Around these parts the B checks and marks team balls.
