I'm not religious, but combined with the other crap, he had pretty much crossed over whatever line I have (which is usually hearing, ignoring, and internally laughing at them). It was during a 60-second timeout and I looked in the corner for the game manager, who had just walked out of the gym for a moment. I noticed the timer had a walkie-talkie and I walked over to check the books and told the timer that he needed to get the game manager on the walkie-talkie cause "that chucklehead right behind you in the red sweatshirt and mustache is about to go." The timer said he had already taken care of it and within a minute, the game manager was up in the stands.

Gotta love that. What exactly did he want you to blow your whistle for?? Probably so 'somebody doesn't get hurt out there!!'
