I knew then that I was in for a real treat. In Q3, I ejected a head coach for throwing his clipboard onto the court in protest over a call (it was an OOB call, for gosh sake) and then after receiving my first T for doing that, he went over and slammed it on the scorers table while yelling "You gotta be kidding me". Buh-bye.
In Q4, I ejected the other team's assistant coach after he received one T for not sitting down after being warned and then he kept on standing. Go figure.
Oh yeah, I had to have the scorer replaced when he refused to record a technical foul on a player for loudly using profanity. Apparently, the player was his son and he refused to believe his son would swear! Believe it or not, I had that happen once before about 11 or 12 years ago. No, it wasn't the same guy.
The home team won by 10, I think. I wasn't really paying attention.
All things considered, it was the most fun I've had on the court in the last few weeks.

Do you self-medicate after these games?
