You're going to tease us with that and not share what he did?

The defensive player actually launched himself to hit the offensive player similar to a nice Jack Lambert or Mike Singletary like whack! I've never seen anything like it on the court before.

I just got a copy of the report my Association sent to the school and state (also a first for me).

The crazier a coach gets, the more controlled we need to be in our efforts.

Not trying to take the fun out of giving a "howler monkey" a zinger, but we all know it is a slippery slope. Be carerful

For the record, there's no such thing. You can have a:

intentional personal foul
intentional technical foul
flagrant personal foul
flagrant technical foul

But there's no such thing as an intentional flagrant foul.

I've often thought this but never verbalized it.

In JV game prior to our varsity tonight heard coach yelling at officials wanting travels calls. All you heard was him yelling "travel, travel, travel" etc. JV official looks at him and told him to concentrate on a rule he might understand like 3 seconds.

Was glad I was not drinking anything or it would have sprayed everyone around me! Wouldn't advise those kind of comments BUT it WAS funny!

My personal favorite, never actually spoken out loud, but I think it frequently. In response to any of the "5 against 7" "hometown officiating" "call it on both ends" line of comments, the following might be appropriate.

"If you already think I'm calling against your team, why in the world would you make a remark like that and piss me off?"

Well, a couple of years ago, I had a coach Question my "integrity" . He said,

"Stop cheating my kids"


I said, "Coach, are you questioning my integrity?"

He said "Stop cheating my Kids!"

I said " Coach are YOU questioning MY integrity?"

He said, "All I am saying is stop CHEATING my kids"

Whack.

I do believe he was questioning my integrity.

+1. No brainer. He called you a cheater. If he's dumb enough to say it twice, he's in the parking lot with the idiot that called you an idiot.
