I can't believe this.

I feel that the main reason we don't get respect is that coaches are uneducated about the rules. If i could count the number of coaches that call a timeout when their team has the ball in the backcourt and get mad that we don't move the ball up to the 28' line. Also, coaches don't seem to understand the advantage/disadvantage principle. They expect us to call every infraction committed against their team, while letting every infraction their team commits go.

BBallCoach, i'd like to see you put on the stripes and do a game, so you can see how difficult it is to officiate instead of b*tching about how we officiate games.
