It seemed during this whole "situation" that I was table side (which is where the clock was) and didnt have a chance to see what the time was. I would normally NEVER bail a coach out with a T because his team is down by 20+ points with 2 minutes left to go in the game. Which is why I told Hewitt that I wouldnt have t'd him had I know what the score was. This game was a fast moving games and both teams were playing really well it just so happend one team was down by 24 (when i dropped the T- ended up down by 40 point difference). Soft stop sign ... Usually two hands (something a DI NCAA official taught me (Tim Marion) and isnt force ful just a light raising of the hands.
A hard stop sign usualy one handed is the typical STOP! sign. I knew the coach was loosing and I figured thats why he was on my case I just didnt know how bad.

Does that help you folks out? Just ask Brad, no one can understand me in person let alone online :-D

Let's see the scoreboard was behind you and stayed there, so you never had a foul switch? There was never a dead ball? There was never the slightest lull in the action to look at the clock?

You had no feel for the time or the score and you gave a non-warning. Those are MUCH bigger issues than whacking a coach late in a blowout.
