5 Second Count....too funny!

[Coltdoggs]

One of my rec league coaches has no kids in the league, he just volunteers every year to coach in our league. Been with us for about 4 years now....all the guys who officiate in our league have also been around during this guys 4 years and we all know him, know his style, tendencies, etc....

This coach....He also happens to be a HS official...he's pretty animated on the sidelines and really gets into the coaching aspect. His team won the tournament 2 years ago and made it to the final 4 a couple times...so he's a pretty decent coach...

Yesterday, his team got called for 5-seconds on and inbound play by my partner at L....I was T, bench side and coach says to me "Mike...That can not be 5 seconds!"....I told him to ask my P...they have some dialogue and I see my P tell him he was counting/chopping...I'm laughing at the banter back and forth between coach and my P....Coach looks at me with a smile and says "He was counting???? What...2-4-6?"

I had to laugh...I did think my P's count was pretty fast...
