I agree. Note it does not apply for administrative technicals, only unsportsmanlike. Good rule.

I did an adult wreck league last week that gave $100 fines for each technical foul. Needless to say they were all incredibly well behaved and respectful in their questions.

Worked another adult wreck league over the weekend without anything in place for this; needless to say I've never heard so much yapping. One guy gets a tech for a series of complaints ending with "Seriously What the F**K!?" -- as we're lining up, one of his teammates comes to complain to me that his teammate didn't deserve a technical, he said nothing disrespectful.

Starting in my third adult wreck league a week from Monday (I like to work a full week schedule leading up to camps).

That's what makes it a good rule. I might suggest this rule to the organizer of the leagues I do. Thanks for sharing Mark!
