Worst thing a coach said
My first Varsity game. I am center on a throw in, EASY call, home girl pulls the jersey of her opponent. Right in front of Home bench. "Tweet" HOLD>

Coach goes ballistic. "You can't call that at THIS Level"

I report the hold.

Next time out I go to my partners and ask " don't you guys call holding up here"

of course they did, coach was working me.

he got me good. Had me thinking....

Thanks to everyone here, I am now in my 11th year.

Coach: "Why did I get a "T"?
Me: "Because you were on the court and stomping your foot like a petulant child"
Coach: "Would YOU have called that T"?
Me: "If I say no will you still make me dinner?"

I lost a date once
Worked through college reffing IMs, had a date with a very attractive lady set up on Friday night,
Reffed her sorority in a basketball game Thursday night, and they lost by 1 in overtime with a (in hindsight questionable) charge call against them on their last possession of regulation.
Friday she canceled, and never heard from her again.

Thank goodness because I then married the most beautiful woman in the world whose only downfall is she never played basketball...

You didn't really use this word with a coach, did you? This happened in your mind, right?

My guess: the coach was his wife, regarding a game he didn't actually work.

He called his WIFE a petulant child? Has he not read the manual?

That's why he didn't get dinner.
