That was the point of this thread, not to get into an arguement about my comment, which in hindsight, made that ref look bad. But I just got outraged when he turned around during while a player was driving the lane.

So as officials, do you all worry about this sort of thing? Is my viewpoint, in this situation, off base?
TussAgee11,
If you would have ended your story with
  • "Next time back down to our side, the fans are really giving it to him. I'm quiet in the front row. He turns around, WHILE THE PLAY IS GOING ON, and starts yelling at the crowd. I start in thought to myself, 'NOW I KNOW WHERE YOUR MIND IS, FOCUS ON THE COURT.'",

    it would have been a much better story with a much happier ending.

  • I agree. While he may have been wrong to address you, you were also wrong with what you yelled. Especially if you are an official. You MUST have self-control when watching.

    To answer your question, no I would not eject for that.
