After a race an opposing coach belittled his team in the finish paddock yelling "You EMBARRASSED me," among other things. My girls team were horrified and we joked about it in practice several times.
At the start of the next season a senior asked if I was going to yell that at them during the race. I told her no, but I would insult her as a reward for the joy of coaching her for her career. With about 200 meters to go, I didn't yell, but said almost verbatim what you quoted above. She smiled ear to ear and took off.
However, a parent from another team heard me and started chastising me. It was not the time or place to try to explain so I put my head down and went slinking off. I guess I should have thought it through better. When I told the girl, she laughed and laughed at me.
