WOW just finished 2 games today that I did all alone. First off I didn't hear of the games until 3pm when I got a phonecall as I was leaving school. I ran home got my stuff and was ready for tip off at 5:30. The first game was a 7th grade game and I did a pretty good job, and both coaches understood I was all alone. The second however was hell. It was an 8th grade game. Both coaches were former players. The away team blew the home team out, but the problem was with the away team. Home team understood my situation and didn't complain. Away team man the coach was on me from the beggining. After one of his players got tangled up he was all over me for the no call. he walked out onto the court infront of the table. I should have given him a T but with me being all alone I didnt want things to escalate. Well needless to say he didn't back down. (For those of you in the stl area the coach was the news channel 5 sports announcer Frank Cusumano.) What should I do to help keep things under controll when I am all alone.
