And that's exactly why you should be up in the stands yelling at the officials rather than being out on the floor masquerading as one.

You just don't get it.

mutantducky...If you haven't already blown off this comment, do so, and don't give it another thought.

JR tends to state things strongly but it's hard to argue with him here. Why is this any different than calling a personal foul on a player because he always fouled out "in the past."

Personally, if anything, I may be less likely to T a coach who has been a jerk in the past because I make a point of avoiding any interaction.

I happen to agree with JR's sentiments in post #61. For mutantducky to write that he would treat two coaches who did "the exact same thing" differently is as unfair and wrong an action that an official could take in a game.

We constantly talk about treating both teams equally. Mutantducky very clearly wrote that he wouldn't do that. There is no place for that in officiating.
