Vin, I've seen this as well, and I've also seen it where the ref called the touchy foul because he thought the team was trying to foul and they weren't. Coached asked him how is that touch a foul now and it wasn't for the other 3 quarters. Ref responded, "I was helping you out, you were the ones trying foul". Coach: You're an idiot, we were playing good defense, not trying to foul. ONly thing I could do was switch my with my partner and put him opposite table for the free throws.
