I asked what he meant, and he said that I was stalling and we both knew it. I agreed, and told him I wasn't breaking any rules. If he'd have said I was a jerk for stalling, I'd agree with that. But when he said I wasn't playing by the rules, well, that burns me up.

I guess I don't have a question. I'm coming to confessional to admit to the stalling (a jerk move I've never done before and I don't plan to repeat), especially since it was already 11:35 when I rolled into my house last night!

My question is... why does everyone think this is a jerk move? Stalling and icing a shooter is part of the game. As a coach why wouldn't you take advantage the rules and use them to you're benefit. If you didn't, then people would say that you are not doing your job. As an official, I expect coaches to complain about calls, use stalling tactics, etc. Its all in the game. We (coachs and officials)are here for the athletes not the other way around. Just my opinion.
