Hey, KC- from another first year rookie, thanks for the posts! You are a riot!
In our clinics this year, our training official said, "If you don't remember who the foul is on, pick a number and sell it!"
I thought he was joking, until it happened to me. As Im heading to the table, mind goes blank
, and I remember what the trainer said. I turned around, looked for a number, and...
"blue, 23, push, 2 shots"
As Im turning back around, the scorer buzzes me and says, "Who was that on?"
I said, BLUE, 23! He just looked at me and grinned. He, and the coaches knew it wasn't right, but they also knew there wasn't any point in arguing.
I hope to never have to use this one again- and know that it could cause all kinds of problems- including wrong player fouls out, etc. But in that instance, it worked and it didn't impact anyone.
Keep having fun, keep improving, and keep posting!
