I would agree that admonishing your partner after a game is not the answer. It's better to discuss options or alternative approaches to situations that may have occurred. i.e. If I was out of position on a call - why and what can I do to avoid that again. Did I have to eject - was it my fault to begin with and was there an alternative to tossing?
Just some different ideas about what to do with a partner after a game. I am always anxious to get reviews from my partners. I don't want to hear " you did a great job ". I know I booted one somewhere. Help me to avoid it happening again.
Your partner had no idea what and why. Hopefully someone somewhere will be able to reach him before he loses all credibility with the teams in your area - and your association members who will know soon enough they don't want to work with him.


He who knows not and knows not that he knows not is a fool - avoid him.
He who knows not and KNOWS that he knows not is a rookie - teach him.
He who knows and knows not that he knows is lost - help him find himself.
He who knows and knows that he knows is wise - follow him.


My adaptation to a quote I read once. Don't know the author.
