Ever been laughed at?

7th grade boys rec tonight...

Called a shooting foul for a push in the back on a breakaway. A1 was just beginning his shooting motion, when he got pushed, which caused him to travel.

This is right in front of Team B's bench, so of course both coaches wanted a travel.

The HC asks during the free throws about the travel, and I tell him that the push preceded and caused any travel violation. Then the assistant coach starts laughing at me (no joke). Unfortunately I felt I had to T him. Didn't want to in a rec game, but I felt he crossed a line.

Didn't hear a word from either of them the rest of the game. It's a shame, too, because of the 6 coaches I dealt with tonight, they were the only ones who gave me any trouble at all.
