I've been thinking about starting this thread and esteemed member tomegun pushed me to do it when he said doing so-and-so would lead to yelling in the locker room. He later backed off, but that's not the point...or maybe it is.
Has anybody yelled at a fellow official on the floor or in the locker room? Or been yelled at? Or witnessed officials yelling at each other? I don't mean working-a-gym-so-loud-you-can't-hardly-hear-yourself-think-yelling-just-to-be-heard. I mean angry, in your face, why did you do this or you will do that because I said so yelling.
Me, I've never yelled at a fellow official and I can only remember 1 time where I yelled at a player in anger (gotta admit I've feigned anger a few times with players or coaches
). I've been yelled at once on the floor by a fellow official, he stopped immediately when I told him to & later apologized, again on the floor, walking quite a ways to do so in full view of all.
So...you a screamer?
