Most of them are afraid to give a T because they are afraid they won't get hired back.
If I worked subvarsity games I'd be handing out technical fouls like Girl Scouts hand out cookies. I work nothing but varsity high school games and a few college games here and there.

I worked a varsity game last week and there was a coach who was the assistant for both the JV and varsity teams. In the JV game I counted up at least three or four occasions where I would've whacked him. Frankly, the officiating was (opinion redacted), but the coach was still way out of line.

In the varsity game, that coach didn't say a single word.

I've seen that a lot.
