In a freshman boys game the other night A scored and B1 grabbed the ball and stepped out quickly. Just as he was about to release his pass, his attempt was somehow disrupted and he accidentally stepped inbounds. Coach A flew up off the bench and a step or two out of the box. "THAT'S A...." and then I blew the whistle and signaled the violation----- and just looked at him. He stared back briefly, with his mouth hanging open, and then quickly ducked his head. I got a bigger kick out of this wordless exchange than any T I have ever called.
