Nope, but this preacher has T'd his share of coaches and players. Sad that he lost control of his language.... not a good example for anyone, but good that he apologized.

My uncle worked basketball in Iowa in the 1950's. He told me how he had worked a game between two Catholic schools and the coaches were both priests. I don't know the details of what happened except that they got into it with each other and he ended up ejecting them both from the game.

My uncle has passed away now but about 5 years ago my Dad was back in the area where they grew up and was at a local restaurant. A guy came to his table and introduced himself. It was an old friend of both of them. And the first thing he told my Dad was how he always remembered how Richard (my uncle and Dad's brother) had kicked those two priests out of that game. So people were still talking about it about 50 years later. I don't know if I'll ever top that one but you got halfway there anyway. : > )

No not even I only got 1/4th of the way there. I only gave 1 priest 1 tech to catch up he would need another and the other coach(priest) would need 2.
but yeah 1/4 is something to brag about.
