Sounds like an easy night.

Here's what I had Tuesday night. Boys and Girls Club High School Leage. $27 per game. 10 minute running quarters. Subs at 5:00 Minute mark, clock stops during FTs and all whistles last minute of each half.

Game 1 -- 3 Ts, all on the same team, 2 in the first half, 1 in the second half. 1 for a mouth kid (by my partner), 1 for a kid coming up the floorbehind everyone else slapping his own wrist as if to say he was fouled, and the third one for a mouthy kid on the bench. The team with all the Ts should have won the game, I thought, but ended up getting their clocks cleaned since they weren't interested in playing defense. With about a minute left and a 15 point spread, the coach of the team getting whipped calls a TO and tells me that while this is just a silly little league, we were doing a disservice to the game by calling the Ts that we did, and then calling nothing (just before the timeout he called) on a kid who was going down on a fastbreak, lost the ball, and punched the wall/pads cause he was frustrated with himself.) I asked the coach if he wanted to know the difference in the calls/no call. Of course he wasn't interested.

Game 2 -- Whacked a mouthy kid about 2 minutes in that didn't like my OOB call. Rest of the game was rather uneventful.

Game 3 -- 20 seconds in, a kid throws up an airball, and lets out a rather loud "OH $h!t!!" Partner whacks him. About 2 minutes later. He's got the ball in the key, and can't decide what to do with it and I end up with a 3 second violation on him. He zings the ball towards my head. I nod my head to the side to avoid being hit, and whack him with T #2, and he's done for the night.
