My partner last night gave the "clean block" clapping signal several times. Not a big deal, but I just think it's dumb.

The annoying thing was at halftime. He was the R for the game. As we're leaving the locker room to start the 2nd half, there was nobody there to lock the door behind us. So I go onto the court to observe the teams and he goes to find somebody with a key, to make sure our stuff is locked up.

It takes him a couple minutes (no big deal), so at the 1:00 mark, I go to the table and get the game ball, so that when we gets back, I'll just pass him the ball and we'll start the half.

Well, he re-enters the gym right under A's basket, and A has the arrow. So he sees me with the ball -- at midcourt -- tableside -- and stays on the endline. He waves at me, saying, "Go ahead and put it in play there".

I just shook my head and threw the ball cross court to where he put it in play. That annoyed me. What if we were being observed at that game? He made us both look bad. Grrrrr.

Why take a stupid shortcut? Just do it right. It's not that hard.
