A new low in coaches questions

That's too funny I'm going to have to use that one. I had a wreck player challenging my no call kicked ball last week.
He says "I'm a certified varsity official, I know the rules"!!
So I tell him "great but you aren't officiating THIS ballgame, sir".

He kept on & on so by the 2nd half he was a spectator in the stands with his pretty girlfriend. Come to find out he did indeed take the test, but only scored high enough for trainee status.



BTW, mere contact does not constitue a foul.

I worked a tournament last summer where teams were from all over the country. Well one of the teams was from Wisconsin who tried to question my ability and stated that he was an official himself. I then told him, "I have worked college games in Wisconsin." Which he tried to tell me that I needed a license to do so (For the record, you never need a license to work in a particular state for college basketball). This conversation took place after the Wisconsin team lost and he approached me on the court. I basically laughed in the guys face and he walked away.
