Last night, 7th grade girls games and the head coach for the home teams always likes to whine. (I've had him before). In my pre-game talk with him I asked him to coach and I would officiate! From the get-go he's whining and crying for fouls. Him: "Moving screen", Me: "there's no contact, coach". Him: "Over the back", Me: "Your player got the ball with only slight contact". Etc, etc., etc. Stop sign given after several "funny looks" when he's begging for calls that aren't there. Finally in the 3rd quarter, right in front of his bench his girl drives around defender who initiates slight contact and falls to the floor. His girls keeps going to the basket and gets off a shot (3 dribbles later). He's screaming that this has to be a foul, on the floor, telling me (loudly) how could I have missed it and "call the foul". So I did! Tweet, technical foul on white coach, 2 shots for visitors. When he sat down, he started coaching and yes, the game got better.
