Confused Coach/Reff!

5-6 playoff games. Player dribbles, picks up dribble, then fumbles, retrieves fumble. Coach starts saying, "double dribble, double dribble" a little later during a time out coach comes over and tells the state tournament reff that he's missing the double dribble on a fumble. Reff tells him no he's not, rules specifically allow a player to pick up a fumble after he's dribbled. Other reff 29 year veteran comes over and says the same thing to coach. Coach stomps off saying you guys are wrong. I keep looking at the coach as the game keeps going knowing I've seen him somewhere. I realize after awhile the coach is also a reff that I watched a month ago working a varsity game in another town!! Later that day I'm getting ready to work a game with the same confused coach and the 29 year veteran reff comes up to me and shows me a copy he made from the illustrated rules of the fumble, dribble, fumble page. He says, I'm going to hand deliver this baby to that coach! I asked him later what the coach said when he gave it to him. He said, "Thanks." The coach never complained once in the game I officiated!

In all seriousness, it might be that you'll need to go elsewhere to improve your reff rviotto13 Basketball 6 Mon Feb 21, 2005 07:39pm
