I wasn't working this game, but was courtside. It was a Frosh or JV game, and one kid on one team was big, reasonably athletic, but little in the way of basketball skills.

Anyway, on a fast break by another team, the big kid hammers the guy going for a layup. He wasn't doing it maliciously or even intentionally, just trying to play the ball and be agressive, but his size and lack of skill made it look worse than it was. It was just a hard foul correctly called.

The lead official, who made the call, is going to report the foul, and the coach blurts out, "you called that on him because he's a football player." After a second, I just died laughing.
