More rec league follies

However, the third time it happened, I went over to him at a break and tried to calmly explain the rule.

For some reason, today was the day to inappropriately complain about 3 seconds. I did four games, and in every game there was at least one parent yelling about three seconds, always at a completely irrelevant time, such as when there was no one there, and once as the defense was running back up court with the stolen ball. Didn't have a lot of howling otherwise, though. These were really good teams, with good coaches who spend more time watching their players, and less "coaching" the refs. (Mark, just for the record, this was Fenk-ball, which has consistently been a LOT better than Spitz's stuff. I'm takin' my chances and switching.)
