YO THIS AIN'T THE LEAGUE - should be a continous motion play


AND 1 - everytime somone goes to the basket, I need a foul


RUN RUN RUN - we can't run a 1 / 2 ct set


As far as coaches boxes go.............. good luck

What happens if you get off on I-64 East and attend games at the Boo Williams SportsPlex?

I think in the AAU tournament I worked last weekend, there was a tiebreaker that counted the number of times each team said "AND 1". Occasions where they yelled that and the shot failed to go in must have been worth double.

A little surprising to me, I did not have to issue a single T. Had one player get frustrated with me for not calling a foul after he dribbled into two stationary defenders and fell down but that was hit. His coach got on him about that too.

More of the same??? Unless, BNR is on the game.

A coach is a coach is a coach in my book.

I have only tossed one coach in 19 years (19 years???? God, I'm getting old ) of officiating. It was an AAU coach.

Having said that, my general experience has been that the overwhelming majority have been decent guys/gals.

Not Gil Thorp. He's different. Always a perfect gentleman. I've never seen him get a technical foul, or get ejected from a game, and he coaches basketball, football, and baseball, and has been doing it at Milford High School for fifty-three years.
