I don't think I had 2 coach technicals all last season and I've had 2 now before January 1. C'est la vie.

Poop happens. A few years back, I hadn't had to call a flagrant T in over five years, and then had three within two weeks (all separate incidents)....and haven't had one since (probably just jinxed myself ).

Biggest advantage I can see to the "stop sign" is that the game video will show that the coach was clearly warned. Best if we can defuse it before it gets to that point, but sometimes, in spite of our best efforts, they don't give us a lot of choice. As JR said, when it gets to that point we have to step up and say "that's enough".
