I did a jr. high boys game last week. They were playing a CD that I know the parents, coaches, or principal hadn't listened to. It's a conservative little community with conservative people. The lyrics weren't total raunch, but they weren't exactly polite, either. I plan to mention something to school board member in a questioning manner... "Did you realize what they are warming up to?" Then let them decide.
Yes my authority begins when I enter the court, but it isn't my school. I'm there to focus on the game. T'ing them up over the music seems to be too much of a "cop of the court" mentality. Just make the request and give them the chance to comply.
And, if bad music causes me to give a T. I'm afraid some of the school bands I've heard would have to get hit with flagrant foul.
