The Good: Nobody got hurt

The Bad: T'd home coach not three minutes in for yelling "Those were two HORRIBLE calls!" He thought my partner missed an OOB call, and he also thought we missed a FT violation (ball not hitting the rim. I asked my partner and he said it looked like it did from his position (trail)).

The coach thanked me for the technical. He was great the rest of the game, shook my hand and apologized after.

The Ugly: When the buzzer for the end of the third quarter sounded, I was on the endline. Sitting in the corner off that same endline was a game management person. I'm gathering the ball and starting to head toward the division line when he gets up and yells "Hey stripes! You're calling too many fouls we're on a time limit here! We've got another game after this!"

The AD saw the whole thing happen, and actually added to the game management person's complaints, saying the same sort of thing.

I say to the AD, hey, I can't have this sort of thing, please remove him. The AD says to me, well we can't really do that.........he's the principal.

I've never had anything this bad...the fans were bad as well...with parents from the winning school taunting the far inferior losing school. I couldn't get out of there soon enough.
