No intention of talking down to or jumping on anyone.
I just spent an evening with two partners who
were more worried about what was best for them and not the game. That as you can imagine
leads to some things that are not best for the game. So I may have over reacted but the terminology just struck me wrong.
I do not see much leeway for not calling a T here, this player did not have the ball when the play was blown dead, the player then picked up the ball and instead of handing it to an official, slammed the ball to the floor in such a manner that it went 10' in the air?
I can think of a couple of reasons the player might get whacked here, no matter who the player was upset with.
