Good job,jp.You were right to assess the T.You don't have to take that crap,and the kid will never learn anything from this situation if you don't do something about it.If you ignore it,the next official that this kid gets may run into the same problem.If he really gets out of line,you can make it flagrant,also.Tell the scorer that the T must be entered in the book,so that there is a record of the kid's behaviour.The scorer was out-of-line for berating you,also.I'd think about reporting him too.This has got nothing to do about being thin-skinned.It has got everything to do with the amount of abuse we are expected to take,especially at this level.However,you never shoot foul shots after time has expired unless they will affect the outcome of the game.It doesn't affect the outcome in this case,so you don't shoot 'em.That's covered in the book somewhere,as well as in the "summary of penalties" at the back.
