bbcof83 kgeorge0263 wrote Wish I had a game tape to see that play to confirm it was the right call. Call up the home coach and ask if you can get a copy. I do it fairly often and most coaches are very accommodating as long as you do as much as you can on your end (send a DVD and stamped/addressed envelope if it's too far to drive and pick up).

bainsey kgeorge0263 wroteI can see your perspective of running the kid, but they were down 10 and didn't want to create more pandemonium. Different sport (soccer), but a friend of mine issued a red card this year to a kid for basically being calling him the same thing. This is a no-brainer, IMO.

Forksref bigbeardedbryan wroteMy night went alright, thanks for asking! Girls JV. Visitors dressed six players. Teams combined for probably 50 turnovers (at least 30 travels or illegal dribbles) and 40 fouls... and 37 points. It was 8-8 at the half, and, after a scoring orgy of unprecedented magnitude in the 4th quarter, the home team missed a wide-open three-footer with about two seconds left and wound up losing, 19-18. Ahh, small-school basketball. Many years ago I was coaching soph girls BB. After a particularly trying game, the V coach asked how it went. I said, "We were playing them even until they went on a a 4-2 run over the last 6 minutes." ugghhhh!!
constable kgeorge0263 wroteOh..I forgot...early 4th quarter visiting team applying heavy pressure and fouls ball handler. I call a foul and one of the visiting players on my way to the table calls me a "homo"...so whack..."T". Coach asks why...and I told him what he called me. He's done.

I can see your perspective of running the kid, but they were down 10 and didn't want to create more pandemonium. He did not say it very loud, but audible enough for me to hear it. It was a packed house...so I'm quite sure no one else could've heard him. Coach was right...
BillyMac Apologies to Durwood Merrill. RichMSN wroteAbsolutely. In any sport I work, it's an ejection. Excellent decision, especially here in New England. It's going to be very cold sitting on the bus waiting for the game to end.
