Last year I had to replace an official at the big break in a regional semi-final as he was injured.

I called the first foul in the 2nd half after about 40 seconds of play. I was lead and as I came around the players to indicate the foul to the scoretable the coach yelled at me to be consistent. Now you could not mistake me for either of the officials who started the game.

I said to the coach "Give me a break coach don`t I have to make at least 2 calls before it can be inconsistency." He looked at me in a puzzled way. These guys I am sure are programmed pregame to say their little quips every 30 secs.
