Fair enough, I guess we misunderstood what you meant when you wrote:

If you took care of it, how does he get to keep "jawing" at you all game? That's the part I don't really understand.

I guess I regret my use of the term "jawing." Poor choice of words. In the first half of the first half, it was literal jawing. That's when the T came.

After that, it turned more into mutterings under the breath I couldn't quite hear, rolling of the eyes and such.

I dunno, I've never really been one to T someone up for rolling their eyes, so I let it go. It was happening every few plays for a good portion of the 2nd half, though.

Then, the blood thing happened. After that, we were fine.

So, yeah. Poor choice of words on my part.

Fair enough. You're right, I wouldn't (probably) T for eye rolling at this level. Kids ball? I'd probably talk to the coach. "Coach, I don't expect your kids to agree with every call I make, but I do expect them to control themselves."

Men's leagues are different animals, IMO.

Jawing was okay, "jawing at me & my partner the whole game" is what concerned me.

I thought it was a mens league? Only females roll their eyes is how I was raised. Or maybe it was a different kinda mens league. Not that there's anything wrong with that
