Had a discussion of whether this should have been deemed a flagrant act and ejection. Didn't come to a conclusion but thought it was worthy of a discussion, we just went with regular T.

If it matters the information that I got was that it wasn't a subtle bird up against the coaches body, but they also weren't jumping up and down with their hand in the air. A medium arm extension if that means anything.

If it's really the middle finger, then it's flagrant. If it's just a "wave off" then ordinary T.

I am giving the HC an "E Ticket Ride" to the Locker Room.

Better yet, how about a seat on a very cold bus in the parking lot?

How would you handle if the HC said the words associated with that finger? That should be your asnwer.
