Joey Crawford - "I always wanted to give my son a tech"

I wonder if the NBA knew that he would be officiating his son and if they have a problem with it (Especially with Joey's publicity earlier)? It's possible that he got called up right before the game which made it hard to make a switch.

Quote:
Former University of Kentucky guard Joe Crawford, a second-round pick of the L.A. Lakers, made his NBA debut with the Knicks last week after receiving a D-League call-up. And it just so happens that Joey Crawford the referee was officiating the game. "I always wanted to give my son a tech," Crawford the ref joked to reporters at press row when Crawford the player checked in.

I think you missed that part. Not really his son imo.

And put us right down the path to having to take Genetics 101 as part of our curriculum to become officials!

Just cause Joey's white and the son is black doesn't mean he can't be the father. There's a few white guys that have knocked up black women before.

I'm just sayin...

Oh you silver tongued devil. You have such a way with words. Sheesh!

PS - True story. Several yrs ago I was pressed into service to call my son's Rec Game (his grandparents were there too). First "T" I ever gave in my life was on him for slammin the ball in frustration.

PSS - The ride home from the game was pretty quiet.....whoda thunk?

Unless he had a child other than his current wife, he would not look that Joe Crawford either.

You may want to rephrase that. It implies his current wife is his child.
