Julie, I agree with you.
Thanks, I think. Folks, I'm not saying that it ought to be 3 seconds after the horn. But if a coach is being just plain stubborn, or arrogant ("No way we're going to start until I'M ready!"), I'm quite willing to give the other team an uncontested lay-up. And I'm quite willing to T the stubborn coach or toss him if necessary, if he complains too much. I'd have done the same for his team if the situations were opposite. Remember, I DON"T CARE WHO WINS!
