Early in the third quarter there was a crash on the baseline with me at trail on the table side, so i was between both coaches...a few feet on the floor.

Since it was a dead ball, I turn and say "Which one of you wants a foul called on his team cause you can't both be right." They look at each other and both grin. It actually got them to tone down the chirping, then the game got close and they were too busy to worry about us.

Not the best line, I know...but I'm a bean counter and supposedly we have no personality.

Hey Larry, this past weekend I was working a 7th grade game with my son (see Padgett, you're not the only one who's parenting skills are suspect! ) and there's a mid court crash with no call. Both coaches start in "Ya gotta have something!!!" I was T and I turned, looked at them, was about to fire the line & thought "ahhhh...why bother, they ain't good enough".
