The thrust of my post was about my partner. I am learning to deal with the coaches. Alot of the techniques I am using I got from threads on this board. i don't think it is unreasonable for my partner to be aware of whats going on with the game, instead of selling insurance or whatever he was up to talking to the Varsity Refs down at the endline. i still am thinking by being a gladhander (one who spends too much time talking to coaches, fans etc.), the bad newby then receives a disproportinate amount of vrying about the calls. My example from last night -the train wreck happened in partners area-i am watching a press sitch then administering a TO but the coach lays into me . Now why would that have happened ? I feel pretty sure it had NOTHING to do with my partners pregame Oprah like therapy session with the coaches and everything to do with my being on the other side of the court watching what I was suppose to watch and call. Note Sarcasm. The capper was it happened in front of the H teams bench.. He had to wait for me to get to reporting area (the TO) to start yelling at me. But I am reassurred that my partners history with the two coaches had nothing to with it. ( Note Sarcasm)
i can accept what Jrut said about bad ref/good ref but that doesn't mean I like it or agree with it.
