Two comments,
1) It would have been better if someone else called the T because now you are reporting TWO fouls on White #3.
2) Don't give an explanation unless a coach asks for one.

How, in this situation, is someone else going to call the T on him?
Are you suggesting walking 30 feet over to your partner and telling them, "White #3 told me that's BS, so you give him the T, okay?"
|
No that is not what I'm suggesting. Why are you twisting what I said like that?
All I said was it would have been better for someone else to get the T, that's it. And I know that's not always possible so sometimes you gotta do watchu gotta do.

Unless it is a very overt display by A #3, it is a rare situation where 2 officials would be close enough for the non-calling official...this was a 2 person game...to call a T.
In a perfect world A #3 isn't cussing and every coach never says a word, I've never reffed in that world.
I agree that it looks better for a partner to whack a coach if it is their 2nd T, but a player or coach immediately reacting to a call right beside you, I'd say it makes the calling official look weak if their partner comes and gets it.
