I had a partner recently who thought four warnings were proper in a high school game; another partner who proudly said he has never T'd up a coach in 20 years.
I've had a partner who bragged that he's gone 40 years without giving a coach a technical; he thought it was indicative of his "game management" skills. 2nd game I had with him, I realized what this meant in real life. It means ignoring crap that shouldn't be ignored.
I'm pretty sure the coach threw her clipboard on the floor but I couldn't see it since I was lead table side when I had the no-call she disagreed with. As T opposite table, he had a pretty good view, but no call from him. I played on and didn't bother asking him about it. In hind sight....
