H coach just blows up, saying the T was completely unjustified and we're "screwing" his team. Whack! "That's enough coach."

Well, that only sets him off more, so I hurry and report the T and try and get the heck out of dodge. I can't get two steps away from the table when he screams "You both are full of crap and everybody in this gym knows it."

Whack! Bye bye, coach. He tries to protest and on and on, and my partner lets him know that he has thirty seconds to begin exiting the gym, otherwise we're going to call forfeit.

What a fun time. I had to call another technical on his daughter later in the game for telling me I'm "full of crap." Runs in the family, I guess.
I have to say it's your fault the Coach was tossed. No good comes out getting Coach 's together. Call your game that in and of itself will reign in the players. Soon enough foul trouble will get rid of the trouble makers. Had you not added fuel to the fire the first tee would never had been called. I understand what you were trying to do and what your intentions were. However, keep in mind "no good deed goes unpunished".
