Yep, that's one of the basic truths listed in "The Howler Monkey's Guide to Basketball. Among the many others are

1. Paying your $3 to get in a game allows you to show your ignorance of the rules all night long.
2. The refs are always out to get your kid's team.
3. Three seconds is always a good thing to yell.
4. You should always begin to yell "Call it both ways" about 12 seconds into the first quarter.
5. Over the back and reaching are great basketball rules. They are surely listed somewhere in the Bible.
6. All fans should get a license to referee because we all know that you could better than those clods out on the court!
7. If it weren't for referees your kid would be a superstar and headed for the NBA!
