How many "T's" this year?

I have at times gone a year or two without a single T for unsportsmanlike behavior. Many times this took place because I was dealing with a lot of coaches that either knew me or were calm. And sometimes we get lucky by simply having games without much intensity or nothing unusual taking place. I also think the frequency of 3 Person games I work, it is not always necessary that me as an individual to give a T. If the question was how many games are you involved in with a T being called that number would go up.

Up until last evening, I had only called one this season. It was on a player for a forearm in the back of an opponent during a dead ball. Last night's game, however allowed me to match my entire total for last season in one night. 4 on the home team in a BV game. 2 on the home team coach (and the ejection) and one each on two home team players for slapping the ball while in the hands of a player out of bounds for a throw in. Oh - we also had to have a spectator removed for coming down on the floor between quarters to tell us what a good job we were doing!

Our GV "fan of the game" last night just kept telling us how well we were doing from the front row......all night long. Yap, yap, yap, yap.

In the fourth qtr during a timeout my P's andf I got together near the division line for a few words and he kept saying, "Hey, can I come out there and hear what your saying? Can I join in?"

What a pain in the a$$.....and his team won by 25!

Hehe, had a visiting team spectator like that last night also. As you said, yap yap yap. Not only was he a great official, he was also the head coach. I wouldn't be surprised if he was selling concessions and running the clock too, this guy could do it all!

You would've thought we were the worst officials he had ever seen...until his team took the lead. Then we were "improving". A truly impartial evaluation.

Was it chseagle?

Pretty ho hum… 4 total. 1 admin T, 1 slapping the ball on the throw-in, 1 sportsmanship T on a visiting coach and 1 on a home coach.

I forgot to mention one in my previous post. Boys Catholic middle school game. I call a foul on A1 to which he responds, "F**k". I believe that he was mad at himself, but it was still an easy technical foul, which is probably why I forgot about it.

2 on players, both unsportsmanlike (1 JH in the fall, 1 JV, both boys)

1 in a BV game last week for reaching across the sideline and slapping the ball on a throw-in.

The only one involving a coach that I've had was last night in a 3-person BV game and one partner whacked the Home's HC in the 3rd quarter. I should have stuck a JH coach in a game in the fall but didn't pull the trigger.

You missed the thread on this one, but it's not a joke. Let's just say he's in the minority here.

It's supported by rule, but what's to stop me from putting on a home team sweatshirt when I'm a fan of the visiting team and acting like a jacka$$.

It's like dropping a nuclear bomb when a quick word to the AD, "Bill, get that chucklehead out of here," would suffice. And the fallout would be a lot less, too.

Right. Although the rule specifies "if its supporters act in such a way as to interfere with the proper conduct of the game." Some will have a higher bar for this standard than others, obviously.
