Fast forward. . . 3 minutes left in the game and the poor visitors are down by 30. Coach never said a peep, he knows he's just being out-played. Home player drives the lane and gets clobbered right in front of the rim. Partner and I both have a whistle. As my partner goes to report, visiting player says to me -- absolutely serious -- "We're gonna lose this game if you keep calling cheap fouls like that."

Unbelievable.

I am sure everybody will agree with me that even though the game is a 30 point blowout, this just might be the time to whack the player.
