Then, as the other team was shooting the T free throws, and I'm at the baseline administering the FTs, HE WALKS TOWARD ME WITH A LOOK ON HIS FACE LIKE HE'S GOING TO CUSS ME OUT. The second he steps inside the 3pt line, my whistle blows and he's out of the game.
Granted, this was just a church league game with little or no coaching, but I just thought his "you can't T me up cause I wasn't talking to you" line was funny.

Ha, that reminds me of a situation I had this weekend. Youth league (jr. high age) game. I call a block on B1 as he is trying to press A1. The kid starts yelling at me and says "when your feet are set, that's a charge!!!!". I told the kid to knock it and that was enough but there is no doubt in my mind that I should have T'd him. I guess I didn't because it was a youth game but after about a minute I realized that I should have at least T'd him and I've been kicking myself ever since.
