JVB game. A down by 10 middle of the 4th Qtr. B is employing a full court man to man press. A1 inbounds to A2 in the backcourt (A2 must be a linebacker on the football team as well, big/strong kid) who proceeds to make a few dribbles and run right through and over B1 who has good LGP. B1 is knocked down and slides 15 feet down court on his back. TWEET! Player-control foul on A1. Who then says under his breath, “It’s his own fault. Boys gotta get out of my way when I’m going to the hole.”

How do you know he said it with a mistaken spelling? Did he aspirate the H?

I'm the 'C' opposite table in the 2nd half. V is down by about 20-25 points. V player drives to the basket from the Trail and gets fouled up high by the primary defender who was guarding V player for the entire drive. Trail has foul. I come tableside for the free throws. V HC starts complaining but I don't make out what he is saying. I'm confused as his player is shooting 2 free throws. After 1st free throw V HC complains again. His complaint is that there weren't 2 whistles on the foul. He is upset because the Lead didn't have a whistle.

JV G game and home team attempts a shot. Home player has been in the lane for a couple of seconds and as the shot attempt is air balled, visiting coach yells 3 seconds. He continues to say that a 3 second count continues on an air ball! You need to call that!!

8 seconds into a Var Girls game, Trail calls traveling right in front of him.
From right behind him in the stands comes, "Jeez ref, call it both ways!"

... oh wait, that was from me. Fellow official got a chuckle, though.

"Coach, I've got a rule book in my bag. Let's look it up. If you're right, I'll give you $100, but if I'm right, you have to go out in the parking lot and wash my car. What do you say?"

I've never had a coach take me up on that offer.

Calling official goes tableside in NFHS 3-person mechanics. Has now for 3-4 years. So you're right, I don't understand why the noncalling official would unless it was either a college game or his state ignores NFHS mechanics.

I wonder if they'll send us opposite again in another year or two. Personally, I like going tableside. I can talk to coaches rather than having them try to talk by screaming across the floor.

That would be a step backward in my opinion. I like going tableside also.

I agree, but I think Rich is right to wonder. NCAA went table side first, then NFHS followed. NCAA just switched back saying too much talking was going on. NFHS may follow again.

Which is why they made it so. Made sense to me.

I like being table side as well. you know what you called and why you called it. Who better to talk for the coach if indeed he has a QUESTION. If there is too much talking going on, we have a tool that will quiet them down. WE, must control our environment, not the coach. Sometimes that is more difficult than others.
