I'm not much of a "smart alecky (sp?) comeback" guy on the court, but Friday night I just couldn't resist, so . . .
Me: Off-ball foul from C, middle fourth quarter away from the bench.
Coach just about to get running clocked: Can't believe it (of course, he wasn't looking off-ball either).
Me, reporting: "White foul, twenty-two, team control, red ball OOB."
Coach: Who's been chippy all night, but nothing to merit any warning or anything; "How can you call that???"
Me: "Coach, did you have a better look at that one?" (Of course, he didn't).
Coach: "No, but I've had a good look at all the other calls you've made tonight, and I'm going straight to my computer after this game and give you the rating you deserve."
Me: "..........................."
And my partners and this guy's AD all thought we did a very good game.
Next time, just a blank look will have to suffice.
