The assignor in our area (a neighbor to TX) allows a limited number of "scratches" by a coach, and I've found that coaches get mad over T's, but they save their scratches for guys who they don't think they can trust to make good calls in big games.

You already affect the outcome if you dont call it. Besides the coach or player affects the outcome by saying or doing stupid things that we give a T for. The blame game is the easiest game to play in life.
I had my second T for the year yesterday, BV about 4 minutes to go visitors up by 6. V1 drives and plows H1 in the paint, easy player control. After the whistle and foul I am going to report and V1 punches the padding behind the basket and yells "WHAT!!! F*&%!!!" - T.
Home teams scores 4 on the ensuing FT's and possesion. They end up losing by 11, but would I have felt bad if that was a big turning point. H-E-L-L NO.
