Hey everybody. I had a game today, and a pretty weird situation came up today, which resulted in a technical foul agaisnt a player on the other team. I want a second opinion.
Here's the scenario:
Blue 52 (me) and Black 23 (opposing team player) are fighting for the ball (tugging at it). Referee calls jump. Black 23 keeps wrestling for the ball, so in turn, I do to. After a second, Black 23 yells "Get off of me man!" Referee calls a technical foul against Black 23 for unsportsman like conduct. What would you of done?
I would have first backed me and Black 23 apart (there wasn't any fighting, but to prevent one), then I would of signaled the technical and given it to Black 23. I think the Ref did right. What about you?

I would probably just hit the whistle again. I don't see that there was any reason for a T and I don't see a reason to get between the two of you, unless more occurred.
