Also at the exact same time, my partner blows his whistle to issue a T to Coach B for continuing to complain about the call that resulted in the inbound for team A.

Any guesses on how we handled it?

Oh yeah - in the second game, we had two sets of double technicals. What a morning.

Who was your partner? You should have had me there. We'd have handled it together. Are there any games next weekend? Maybe I'll give Bruce an e-mial. You'll get me out of "retirement" yet.
