Nowadays I just masquerade as a coach. I left the ranks of AAU coaching several years back and took a pay cut to start a career in officiating. It is only since that time that I have been blessed with a vocabulary that includes egregious as well as other such elusive terms as 'displacement', 'continuous motion', 'interrupted dribble', 'fumble', 'intentional foul', 'advantage/disadvantage' and other vernacular that oftentimes still seem foreign to my calling partners.

Still working to fully assimilate 'over-the-back', 'reaching in' and the infamous 'ON THE FLOOR' !!!!
