Technical Fouls

[stiffler3492]

In high school games, three on players.

1 for slamming the ball down
1 for language
1 for looking at me and screaming "Are you kidding me?"

One T on a coach for ABS
One more for adding a player to the book (different game, though).

I think I've been a little better this year at game management, which has led to fewer tech's on coaches.

1 behavioral(last night) and one book.

As we were leaving the locker room after the game, the Coach stops us and tries to argue with us that his player never swore..."He's a good Mormon kid, and he's in there crying right now because you said he swore."

Just said "Ok, thanks Coach" and kept walking.

I have heard that one before, excluding the Mormon part. Perhaps he should be praying for forgiveness?

A couple book technicals. Nothing unsportsmanlike.

I have had 8 (6 HS, 2 college) through 34 games, with 1 of those being assessed to a HC.


Any interesting stories that you care to share about the calls?

2, if I can count the one for the pregame dunk that you reported (after which the coach promptly ripped on the kid for doing it and benched him for the game).

The other was administrative.

Don't forget the first game of the year. Kid tossed the ball to the ceiling after your foul call.

"Then he needs to work on his elocution."

1 T for Delay of Game on the throw-in following the Delay of Game Warning (Talk about not getting the hint).

As we were walking away, my P said:

"Didn't you know that Mormons are genetically incapable of swearing?"

Luckily the Coach had walked the other way and was too far away to hear that!

I haven't had a single technical yet.

My trigger is getting itchy. or something like that

Do not keep track very well as I do not put much stock in these calls. BTW, this does not include a uniform T that I was apart of but may not have actually been the "calling official."

Peace

After more thinking about this, I believe all 3 were in the HS ranks.

1. Was to a coach for ABS (coach known for being an a$$).
   
2. A player said, "Get the f### out of here" after I called a foul on him trying to block a shot. This was the same game with a uniform T, lead to some other issues with an administrator as well and Special Reports were filed. Long story and I might get into after the season.
   
3. I forgot this one, but I gave a T to a head coach after he yelled at my partner and my partner did not take care of him. Then later in the game he yelled at me and I stuck him.
   
4. Gave a technical about a week ago for a kid hanging on the rim after a big dunk. Obvious for sure.

Not only did I forget one, I forgot it was not in a college game.

Peace

Only 3 so far....all HS

1 - player dropped an F bomb
1- asst. coach that just couldn't stay seated and keep his lip zipped
1 - administrative

Got a MS boys tournament this weekend though, so it could change......

I'm not sure how many but I know I'm on a pretty pace this season.

Did whack a HC for the first time in quite a while (I think 4 years). And he did not curse. In fact he didn't say squat to me all game, before or after the T.

I did give a player his 2nd T of a ballgame, mine coming during OT.

Was he laughing at you ala Tim Duncan?

1. 1st boys game of the year, kid throws down a dunk and yells at the opponent....Coach asks the kid why did he do that...and gives him a seat.

2. Player slams the ball after I call her for an offensive foul....Coach: "What did she do?" Really Coach???

3. In my last game almost had an administrative but the lovely scorekeeper decided NOT to call us to the table until after the home player (who was not in the book) subbed out. Player NEVER came back in the game. Nice...
