"Coach do you need a tissue?"

[Terrapins Fan]

I had a game last night. Girls Varsity. Neither team is very good, about a .500 season for both.

The coach for the visitors has been tossed once for his behavior and I know this. All night long, every call that goes against him his is whining and crying. I wish you could have heard him. " How is that not a jump ball?" ( I don't know, maybe because both players did not have position? ) "she's walking" ( No, she did a jump stop ) " How is that a foul at that end but not this end?" ( Uh because she didn't get fouled at this end?)

I got so sick of his crying ( oh and BTW, he was winning, even though it was only by 3 to 5 points ) I wanted to walk over to him and offer him a tissue....

I love refereeing basketball. I hate coaches who cry about every call all night long. If they coached more and cried less, they might have a chance at winning more games. JMO.
