I have nothing. There's nothing to address here and I certainly wouldn't give a technical in basketball for this offense either.
The reaction of "get a clue" is simply an excited utterance out of frustration, it really is not directed at any one person.

Was I too thin skinned? I felt, and still do, that I did the right thing. I wouldn't let my child do that to me without consequence so why woud I let an adult? If it were basketball I would have T him up.
