Had a good one with my partner yesterday.A girls Var. tourn. and he calls a shooting foul and the girl pops off with something about no way I fouled her so he gives her a "T".Well she walks right up to him and yells you gave me one "T" so you might as well give me another one so he said okay you got it!I never had that happen but like I told him its pretty funny.Is there anyone who wouldn't have given her a "T"? By the way out of six free throws and possession they got two points on free throws!

Oh, I've had that happen and I definately give them the second T. (Hey - they were asking for it )

In my situation, the player was mouthing off and said "give me a T, you jack&!@." I did, and he started using more profanity and said "give me one for something serious." (If only all of my technical foul calls were this easy . . .) The player is now ejected, but on his way out the door he decides to let the jack*@& comments fly again - third T. He's now suspended for at least one week (during the tournament), the opposing team has 6 points and the ball.

Bottom line - if the players/coaches want to be idiots, let them.
