1st year official in Miami here, awesome to be able to come here for advice by the way, lots of help with my post in Dec. I am called to fill in for an official that was late for a game a long way from the game I just had worked on one side of town. I make it there with the 2nd just started. I ease into the game, the other official is also a first year with some rec experience. Home team was up all the way by and avg of 15, visiting was getting feistier by the minute. 2 min into the game when I went in visiting coach starts to complain on a call I made for a block, I waved him back and kept on.

Here is the scenario, 1 min left in the game, home team up by 16, and visiting goes over the back on a rebound. I had the trail and the called is made by my partner, # 4 who was behind the three point line, approaches me and starts screaming and gesturing choice words. I had never come close to calling a T and in a heartbeat T his butt. As I turn to report the tech, he starts again and louder keeps screaming good stuff and I look at him, he keeps on and Bam! He's gone. I turn to the table again and the player originally called for the foul comes at me and starts waving his arms at me mocking the call and starts to curse and say stuff, Bam-T for him! I look over to the coach and say" That is three coach, three techs for ya", as if how many do you need me to call. I finally report everything, free throws were shot and game was played out without further. Now I have to fax paperwork to the state and he will probably miss some games, don't feel good about that, he is a JV kid after all and they were losing by 15 but still hustling.

What do you guys think.

Thanks
