T'able offense?

[Back In The Saddle]

One thing you cannot control is somebody else's attitude. If you're calling it consistently, and he won't adjust, well, you can't fix stubborn, paranoid, lazy, no game, or stupid.

Nevertheless, I'm going to ask: Were you and your partner really on the same page in trying to clean this up? Did he call as many fouls as you? Why didn't your partner have a single foul on this guy? From the details you've given, I'd surmise either you were looking for fouls on this guy, knowing his tendencies; or your partner left you twisting in the wind instead of helping you out, either by picking up one or more of the fouls that were there, or by not forcing a switch, or no-switch, when it was obvious you two were having issues.

I agree with trying to stay off his games. There's clearly a history. If there's enough other games to keep you busy, there's no need to be there.
