Mark P., I like your answer!! This reason alone is why I don't call rec league anymore. The insistent whining of over-the-hill wannabes gets annoying and hurts your tolerance level for "real" basketball. Start giving out "t" fouls and maybe they will get back to playing basketball instead of trying to referee it!!
I, too, stopped doing adult rec leagues because it was more like babysitting.
But since I've been picked up by a local college associations, I found its a good way to strengthen my game control abilities, which have been tested at the next level.
At the college level, you get these same prima donnas who have something to say about most everything. Unlike HS games, these are adults, and they should know better (like that would ever happen!)
I have a higher propensity to T now. Makes for better games, and stronger officiating.
