I didn't know I had a rule named after me

See if you can figure it out from this clue: it has the #1 ranked basketball team in the country.

As to why I didn't pass on the T - here's why. This rec league has a zero tolerance policy in grades three through eight on unsportsmanlike comments to officials from coaches, players and fans. All profanity is an automatic flagrant technical - if from a coach, it usually also includes a suspension.

I had already passed on the head coach saying "Blow the damn whistle" because he said it under his breath and no one other than him and me heard it. But when the a$$. coach yelled his crap out loudly at me directly in front of his team, I really had no choice under those rules.

It's not Northwestern, is it?

Illinois has a really nice team. I thought Wisconsin was going to get to them, but they really blew Wisconsin out quickly in the second half.

I worked a boys varsity game that night about 90 miles from the ranch and decided to grab a bite to eat in a drive-thru on my way home. Well, they had to make the food fresh, so I sat there and listened to the game on the radio -- when I got my soda Wisconsin was up eight, when I got my food, Illinois was up three. And it was pretty clear it was over.
