JR, I wish you hadn't done that. Now I'll have to watch HGTV to get the image out of my head.

My partner and I called 5 Ts in the first game and by the second game we were just mellow. Its amazing how calling those Ts sometimes just takes away all the pain. Most of them came from players who just didn't know when to zip their pie hole. I had one who wanted to argue that after a punch signal for an offensive foul, I had really signaled to count the basket. Even some of the wives in the stands were yelling for them to grow up and just play.

It was a good run all these years as I learned a lot about player and game management, but I've lost my patience in general with certain players and the type of ball they play. They will always remain the same, so it is time for me to move on.

Bring on the kids games!

A mix of former D1 guys, a former globetrotter, doctors, investment bankers, city playground players, ages middle twenties to middle forties. Sure I've dished out a few T's but it's nice when the game is over and you get a "thanks ref" and handshakes from most of the guys. That makes it worth it. I'm going to miss it over the summer.

Maybe that's why parents at Saturday kids games suck too.

But the worst are the church leagues. Pray, and then go rumble.
