Yep, and like my other "just a foul's", I prefer them to be the correct call. A T here was absolutely not the correct call. It has nothing to do with being shy, thank you. It has to do with being right.

Bob- thanks for your input. That was pretty much what I thought. I think if I had been my partner I would have given the ball back to him, told him to go hand the ball to the other official (me), and said "don't even think about pulling a stunt like that again." I would have made sure the coach knew that we warned him after that.

Again, the way my partner handled it worked out extremely well, it was just the "official" warning that made me a little nervous. I think I would have liked it better if it had been more along the lines of an "unofficial" warning.
