Create A Caption #37: Round 1

PrintIt's been a while since Orlando Magic head coach Stan Van Gundy has been featured in a create a caption competition, which is why he's being featured today.
Van Gundy is arguing a call with an official during a game.
What is he saying?
Rules:
I'm sure everyone here is familiar with a "create a caption" competition, but in case someone here doesn't know what this type of contest is ... basically a picture is provided and you, the reader, attempt to come up with a quick sentence describing what's occurring in the photo. The line can be funny, stupid, witty, etc.
I'll be a judge but I like to have another collective voice determining the winner, that way there's a bit of a consensus among the community. What I prefer for everyone here to do is this ... if you like the caption a fellow member has come up with, "recommend" it. That will be 'your vote', in essence. If you don't know how to "recommend" a comment, go to the comment you like, click on 'actions', then click on 'rec'. You can "recommend" multiple captions/comments, if you want.
So for a quick recap.
- Write a quick sentence describing what's occurring in the photo.
- If you like a caption/comment that's been written, "recommend" it.
- After you "recommend" a caption/comment, write something (like +1, for example) to indicate you like the sentence a 3QC member has written.
- The contest will last four days, so whichever caption/comment gets the most recommendations, wins. In case of a tie, I'll determine the winner.
- There will be two rounds in the competition. In the first round (Friday/Saturday), submissions are made and votes are tallied. At the end of the second day, the submissions that garnered four or more "recs/votes" will advance. In the final round (Sunday/Monday), votes are tallied for the eligible submissions.
- Winner will be announced Monday afternoon or evening.
- The contest is subject to change.
Let the contest begin!

I couldn't find a relevant use for him.
However he is the only person looking SVG’s way in the crowd. Weird.

The 'rec' button has changed a little bit, hopefully everyone noticed that.

Any SNL reference deserves an automatic 'rec' from me.

Hey what's the problem here?
I got a date with Outback Steakhouse and Ron Jeremy to attend to.
No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....

hey
check your iphone ‘cause twitter sure isn’t working!
Maybe not the best submissions, but I think I'm lauging more than usual.
It was a tough picture, but 3QC is money on these.
