Well I whacked my first head coach last night during my freshman game.
The visiting team head coach had been working us throughout the first quarter and was starting to accumulate the ABS meter. He cooled for a while in the second quarter until I called a shooting foul on one of his players. During the first free throw, a visiting team player standing behind the shooter yells "I've got shooter!" just as the shooter is winding up for her shot which is missed. Based upon her reaction, I judge it to be disconcerting and call the violation.
He goes off declaring that his team is just communicating. I told him "They can communicate coach as long as it doesn't disconcert the shooter." Just as the shooter is taking her substitute throw, he growls "YOU need to read the rule book." I wait a beat for the shot to finish and then whack him.
He knew right away and when I told him he needed to sit, he just responded "Yeah I know."
My partner remarked before the fourth quarter "You know his girls are playing better since you T'd him up."
