GJV the other day, and V34 fouls out in the 4th quarter. I'd been kicking myself at half time for not having a patient enough whistle, and it seemed particularly hard on the visiting team; but that's another story.
Anyway, white player got a rebound legally from behind V34, then V34 ended up pushing her while trying to get the steal. I called the foul, reported, and the table told me it was 5. I turned to the coach to let her know (only thing I heard from her all game was a question on a travel call), saying "Coach, that's 5" and held five fingers up.
She's standing with her hands on her hips, "What about the over the back right before that."
Me: "Coach, that's five." I left my hand up with the 5 fingers out.
She turned and got her sub before I could turn to the table to start the clock and we played on.
I felt bad, because I didn't clarify in the coaches' meeting that we would only be answering good questions and not the dumb ones.
Well, I didn't feel bad until much later, and only for a moment.
Well, it wasn't really the stop sign, but it probably looked like it on video.
