Just because you said similar things when you were playing or coaching doesn't make them ok. Asking a ref if he has something against a particular kid, or even his team, is questioning his integrity. It's not a comment made out of frustration; it's calculated, IMO. I caught that part, I just don't think it's relevant. I used to travel every now and then when I played, but I still call it now.

I will say it did piss me off like no other comment all year.
Again, it's not relevant. IMO, his comments here earned the T regardless of what had transpired before. Being nice to you all game doesn't give them a license to go over the line.

99% of us would call the T.
