BTW I believe that giving the coaches and ADs the power KSRef07 describes compromises the integrity of the game. Officials become more worried about pleasing the coach and the AD than calling the game correctly. It is a sad situation.
No argument there. If you really boil down the comment and take away the emotion, it's about having a ref who refuses to use the least bit of judgment and what would happen to him in my neck of the woods. The specific example cited are irrelevent.

Great for Brad. A little disappointed he would ask "Is this your first year?" after admonishing me about "snarky posts". I would have asked "How long have you been officiating?" Hope that doesn't translate to his rapport on the court - "hey coach, have you read a rule book?" .
