Not a very good excuse imo. Controversy is an inherent part of our job. If we're doing it properly, somebody...player, coach, fan... is always gonna be a little unhappy with us. That aspect of what we do is something that an official should never think about.

Removing the coach from the gym meant that you wouldn't have had to listen or put up with his continuing crapola, and you'd also would have had no reason to post here complaining about his nonsense. It's amazing how quiet and peaceful a game gets when these yappy jerks are in the parking lot.

Note also that none of this is personal. It's just my opinion of what happened and why it happened.

Welcome to the forum.
