dsimp is merely practicing preventative officiating. If dsimp was "coaching" the kid on his shooting technique, I can see the argument that it was over the line. Warning a kid about a potential violation, especially in a junior high game, will save everyone from having to drag the game out longer and making the experience worse.
To answer your question, dsimp8, no you were not wrong. This statement pretty much sums it all up - "that was probably the best thingto happen to him all year and that he had been telling him that when the right official came along that he would call the violation."
