Cdoug, you know the 3 P's of calling a technical foul, right? Personal, prolonged, or profane.

Mick mentioned that the coach's comment was personal. According to you the coach said

Quote:
that's not the only time you messed up tonight!
You have to judge whether that's closer to "that call stinks!" or to "you stink!" Only one of those is a personal comment. The other might sometimes be true, and does not deserve a T (the coach is entitled, up to a point, to voice his opinion of a possibly bad call).

BTW, I agree with Mick that the coach's comment was personal.
