Several weeks ago, as I arrived at the game site, I found my partner had started the game by himself. No problem. A quick change and off I go. The HC from the home team comes to let me a locker room and tells me that my partner had T'd up the VC after a disputed call (ball rolled on top of the SQUARE backboard then off the side into a defensive players hands. He wanted OOB, my partner had a no call.
What the VC said was, "
I guess we just have to bend over the table and take it from you, huh?" 
I told my partner, that the coach should be thanking him, because if I had been on the floor, his {backside} would have been making a swift exit from the gym, and since he didn't have an assistant, his team would've been getting the loss by forfeit too. Thinking about it STILL pi$$es me off. I really wished he wouldn't have started the game without me.
