Once a technical foul has been assessed to anyone on the bench, the privilege of using the coaching box is gone for the remainder of the game. The asst. coach does not get to use it, just because the head coach got ejected.

Plz clarify, did the assistant get tossed because you wacked him twice ?? Doesn't he get 2 Direct Technicals as well ???

I tossed him with only one T, but he didn't complain, and neither did the site supervisor. I think if he had argued, I could have called what he said flagrant, but I'm not sure it would have stood.

There was another coach on the bench -- imagine three coaches for one MS team. The boys didn't reflect the bad attitudes of the coaches, as kids will do at times, so I was glad there was another coach.

Tyler, I think you answered your own question here. No person, except the head coach is allowed to stand. And the head coach can only do it if he's in the coaching box. Now if the head coach cannot continue, then no one else is the head coach. Therefore no one else gets to use the coaching box. As I said previously, only one person (per team) is allowed to use the coaching box during a game.

This has nothing to do with your reply, but I am curious about your name as "rainmaker". Does this have to do with Portland and its Jan-Dec "rainfestival", or are you a lawyer by any chance? Just curious.

A few days before I started posting on this board, a coach asked me before a game, to please not rain on his parade. This was shortly after the big parade here, which being in early June, often has rain to contend with. And it was raining the day I started posting. Somehow, it all fell together into the above.

I thought the "rainfestival" in River City started in mid November and lasted until the end of March.

Like the bumper sticker says: I was saving my money for a rainy day until I moved to Portland; now I'm broke!

I survived up there for three years. Great people, great restaurants, great air, great scenery, lousy weather.

Come on, lousy weather? It rains more in Miami, Florida and for more days out of the year than it does in Portland, OR.

I was born with webs between my toes (figuratively speaking) and moss on my back, so the weather doesn't bother me. Seriously, I do suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder -- in August!

Since you put "figuratively speaking" after the webbed-toe remark, and not after the moss on the back remark, are we to assume that you really were born with moss on your back?

Not born with, but around here it can take root and grow at a very young age. I wear green a lot, since some people are offendcd by the look of it.
