Nice thread developing - Thanks.
I feel a T is the ultimate beacuse:
As ref's we govern play in a sport where there is a high degree of subjectivity. We all know that. Fast paced game - tons going on. It's complex and that's why I enjoy it. Baseball puts me to sleep even when I'm behind the plate.
I feel the T is the most "emotional" call. It is the violation that gets the most charged reaction. It is the gateway to leaving the gym or the profession if they do not work against poor sportsmanship. The consequences of a T are great. They should be used proporionatly to their power IMO.
But, they are deserved and sometimes no other means to send a message, control and effect a balanced well palyed game.
My debate: If I call a GREAT game is there ever the need for a T? If the coach's see my skills and unbias, will they "behave" - clearly NO. A T for 6 players on the court vrs a T for the coach calling me a bonehead for kicking BADLY a call makes their use subjective.
I want to use T's carefully but not reluctantly. And like all calls its effected by so many factors not able to be described on an internet board.
Carry ON!
