When is a T a T?

[rockyroad]

Any time there is a problem with a coach, there are three ways to handle it: 1)ignore the coach; 2)talk with the coach; 3)T the coach...in all three instances, the question I need to ask myself is "Will this make the situation better?" If I don't think a T will make it any better, then I won't call it...so much of it is a personal thing - what can I take? The things which will get a coach T'd by me quickly are: 1)profanity directed at me or my crew and 2) comments about my partners...most other things I will try to talk with or respond to a coach...I had a coach one time tell me "Geez, stripes, you're their third leading scorer tonight!" My response was "I'm about to become number two coach" and he laughed...about 3 minutes later, he told meMan, your partner sucks" and I T'd him instantly - he looked at me funny, and then said, "Sorry, that was going too far - I deserved that"...
