I should add, what you're saying could get a lot of officials in trouble; apparently even in your area.

Let me say this. We do not work here for one guy and one association and that assigns 50 schools. We could work 10 or 12 different conferences where each conference might be assigned by a different person. And if I work for one suburban conference, I might not work another suburban or city conference. So there are assignors if that was my explanation for giving a T, that might not be accepted very well if that was the first incident and only the "bench" heard the words. These often are handled by with a "talk to" and then if it happens again it might get a T, but not in the context that I read this. Some assignors would support you; others would want to know why you did not handle the incident the first way. So I do not know where you think I would get in trouble for this?

Peace

Where did I say you'd get in trouble? Frankly, I'm assuming you've managed to work yourself into a high enough stature that you probably wouldn't get questioned too hard either way on an issue like this. Unless, perhaps, you completely ignored it and didn't even address it.

I said other officials could possibly get in trouble for following your advice; based on JR's (whose word I trust) comments that some assigners in your area would want this called.

Automatic T for me. Help the kid learn self control, I'm sure his mother would want you to give him a T.

All of us are one call away from being back to where we once were. And not giving a T does not mean it will not be addressed. It just will not be addressed with a T automatically.

I did not give anyone advice. I told you and everyone what I was going to do or not do. And said where I work that might not be the best avenue to say this is an "automatic" T.
