a HS coach: unbeatable entertainment value!!!

[kiwiref]

Player is in a LGP, with arms straigh up above her head. As the shooter drives towards the basket, those two arms come down, almost at a 90 degree angle, straight on the top of the shooter. The whistle goes off... The following is the exchange between myself and the female coach.
Coach: What was THAT?
Me: That was a foul, coach.
Coach: FAUL??? Her arms were straight up!!!
Me: Yes coach, but then those arms came straight down on the head of the shooter.
Coach: Yes, but that's a reflex, she can't help it!
Me: SHUT UP! B**ch, Bit**, B*t*h!!! Sorry, I have Turrets, coach.

OK, I didn't say that last bit, but I thought it would be funny... I just never had a coach who claimed uncontrolable reflexes for fouling, and I thought she would appreciate a referee claiming Turrets.

I fail to see the humor here.

The humor comes in pointing out to the coach the illogic of her thinking. Personally, I think it's hilarious. I needed a good laugh tonight, and so thanks. (But I wish you'd spelled T-O-U-R-E-T-T-E-'S correctly.}

Sorta like asking a coach if they have Alzheimer's. I knew what he meant. I did not have the same reaction you did.

Kiwi, I think I'm missing something. Where's the funny part?

[Mark Padgett]

Maybe it would have been funnier to have shown her your "T" reflex?

OK, So now, it's OK to make fun of people with Tourettes Syndrome, but you still can't make fun of retarded people?

Why don't you post your favorite picture again and find out?

Might be a good idea to have a new name picked out before you do so though. Maybe sumthin' with Bush in it, but different than the previous ones.

No, it's not. Only one person has said it was funny, and that was b/c of the irony of the ref not being "at fault".

but you still can't make fun of retarded people?

At least you got something right.
