If you used that procedure in an adult rec league, you screwed the coach with your failure to know the appropriate and applicable rule.
If you're gonna show 'em who's in charge, it's not a bad idea to learn the rules first.

Clearly, I shouldn't post anything, I should just read and learn from you masters.
I was just trying to make a point that as officiating is my avocation, that a frustrated athlete should in no way be able to disrespect me as a person or official.
And to call me out for "If you're gonna show 'em who's in charge, it's not a bad idea to learn the rules first." is a little harsh. I've been involved in basketball for 40 years, 20 as an official. I know we try to get it right but lighten up a little.
This forum will not hear from me again.
Good luck!
