Then get the hell away from him.

Exactly what I thought! And yes I am that irate coach/player. Just mens league, but this ref calls the timeout and stops our fast break. Then has the gaul to say that he can call the timeout at any time before the ball enters play again.
Always nice to be vindicated. Thanks

You'd better check with your ref about what rules they're using. If they say they're using NFHS or NCAA rules, then you're right about the play, but still wrong to argue with the ref. But it's still possible that they're using some other set of rules. The sets we discuss here the most are NFHS and NCAA.

Why are these officials treating todd so harsh? (see below)

Well, first of all todd has the gaul -errrr- gall to enter an officials forum with a mere wreck league card in an attempt to point out an officials mistake. Secondly, when he received the answer he thought he wanted to hear, he revealed who he truly was, what "level" he played at & thus the gloating began.

I thank Nevada for the rule breakdown & putting this wreck league superstar in his place!

As a two sport official, I have been reduced to working wreck ball since my season ended in February (thank GOD football starts this weekend). I deal with todd pens every other night. They KNOW it all but can't seem to line up for FTs correctly, OR think that stepping ON the endline (not breaking the plane) for a throw-in results in a violation. And then there are those who "used to ref" or "have a copy of rulebook but it's at home".

Todd got what he asked for... Nevada just put the ruling out there for others to learn instead of just offering his opinion on the play.

How can one ask for a rule clarification & get upset when it's laid out for him??
