Gave my first "T" today

[shavano]

Only 8 games in, and already had to "T" a coach.

Coach forgot to put player #35 onto the roster before game. Sure enough, two minutes into quarter, here comes 35 onto the court, table buzzes, and I'm the closest official.

You sure this is a T to the coach?

[shavano]

It is a team technical, but the coach was right there, and said "lemme have it".

He got it...

[Back In The Saddle]

Well since he asked so nicely

[Mark Padgett]

Congratulations. You're not a maiden anymore.

Yeah, but I didn't even get flowers or chocolates beforehand...

Penalized when they occur, after ten minute time limit. The infraction occurs when the scorer is advised to add to or change the scorebook. The foul must be charged when it occurs and enforced when the ball next becomes live. Once the ball has become live, it is too late to penalize. A maximum of one technical foul per team regardless of the number of infractions for 2a, 3a, 3b, 3c, 4a:

a) A team shall not add a name to the team member list after the ten minute time limit. Team technical foul. When such a player legally enters the court, the player’s name, and number, must be entered into the scorebook.

Say, I've been waiting for that study guide to hit the streets and have been telling partners about it in pregame discussions. Do I have to wait until you make an appearance at Borders on a book tour to grab an autographed first run edition?

I prefer Charmin.

[Back In The Saddle]

Please don't squeeze the study guide?

There are already "bootleg" copies on the street. I have an exclusive agreement with Barnes & Noble, so don't look for me at Borders.

Watch out for counterfeit autographs. My fraternal twin brother, Billy Mac (note space), who often posts on the NFHS forum, will try to fool people into having them think he is me. A real BillyMac autograph is worth the cost of a tall, 12-ounce, Starbucks cup of coffee (plus a $1.70 handling charge). A Billy Mac (note space) autograph isn't worth the price of a cup of coffee.
