2nd game: same as above, which makes six
1 book
1 coach for failure to provide sub.
2 on coach discussed in another thread for poking me in the chest then tossing the ball across the court (ejection).
The others just various T's all on players for p dead ball pushing, back talk etc. Many on these were while working with first year officials who don't know how to take care of business.
I haven't really questioned any of these except the flagrant which is also discussed in another thread.
The funny thing is, my first two years, I only had 2 techs total. Rough year.

The thing about Ts is you can't control the situations you get into as much as you'd like. Some years you get games where everyone pays attention to the warnings and you don't have to give many. Other years you get the games where people are too bullheaded to stop before they get Ted and you get a bunch.
I've had the same streaky-ness lately in soccer. After 10 years with maybe 2 reds total, I've had 4 reds in each of the last two seasons with each season featuring a 2-red game.
I try to look back and evaluate each T given or not given once I get out of the heat of the moment and see if I'm still happy with my decision. Usually I am.
@Shades, you really need to draw the line a heck of a lot sooner than the coach getting ready to assault you.
