He's Not The Enemy ...

Good post. This is what the technical foul rule is all about. It's just one of many rules in the book. Some coaches just lose their cool every once in a while. It's not easy to coach. I know. I did it for over twenty-five years at the middle school level. Just because the coach said something unsporting, doesn't make him the devil, or our arch-enemy. One of the players traveled, and you called the violation. One of the coaches lost his cool for a minute, and you called the techncial foul. The fact that the coach later apologized reminds us that it's just a game, a game that is suposed to be fun for all.
