Clipboard, Chair = flagrant tech
Water bottle, depending on velocity = flagrant tech
Towel = ???
Ball dropped on prone player's head = probably not the first time this has occurred in the careers of
Ed Corbett, Ed Hightower, Tom Eades. Maybe based on their collective experiences as officials they determined the best way to handle it was to call it an
intentional contact technical.
See Jurrassic, i do sometimes give the benefit of the doubt to officials.
