I also cannot think straight

DD is certainly a possibility if either (1) the referee determines it was not a fumble, or (2) if the player does something the referee considers a dribble while collecting the ball.Still don't see how it is not necessarily a wrong call. What did the player do that could possibly be a travel?
Darn straight its hard to believe. You must have shockingly well behaved coaches or be stunningly lucky to not have a situation in 10 years where a T was clearly warranted. Possible, but really, really hard for many of us to believe based on experience.

I would suggest that many of you grow a thicker skin. Or maybe we just have better behaved coaches in my area?

I guess maybe I need to start handing out T's in order to be accepted?
