Before today's games I called 4 for the season. Interestingly enough, all 4 of them were called at the same school but against the visiting teams. All of those teams were from the Portland area(sorry Mark P.). It just makes me wonder whether you city guys let them slide more on language and behavior or what. Today I gave my first non Portland area T but it was an administrative T for only 4 players returning to the floor to start the 4th quarter. I got the AP arrow issue right this time.

Your association gives out a television??!?!!???
Wouldn't that encourage refs to give technicals?
Ref: Technical foul - blue coach.
Coach: What was that for?
Ref: Nothing, really - I just want a new TV for my den!
