Should I Have Been More Patient?

Hey that was my first T of the year this past Friday. Close game too so you can imagine at how happy the coach was with his player for that one.

What Harvey Dahl said in yesterday's Rams game would draw a T from you!?

A classic!

I didn't post the link as he clearly dropped the F Bomb to a national TV audience over the official's open mike........

I tell him that I don't mind questions at an appropriate time, but that he cannot continue to question every ruling that I or my partner make. He turns and in front of his team says loudly, "you guys need to call it both ways" and he gives me the dismissive hand wave.

I thought at that point he had earned the T I assessed. Should I have walked away?

After the game he approached both officials, shook our hands, and asked me why I assessed the T? (in this league there is usually no room for officials so we are generally in the gym and on the floor after/between games)

He obviously didn't think his comment deserved a technical and even mentioned that he's directed that comment to other officials with no response from them.

The ABS meter may have been running a bit too long, but I think the rest of your game probably went a lot better after the T.

I'm not sure what you are talking about, but if a kid uses profanity while showing his disgust with a call, yes it will get a T.

A wave off may not get a T. A remark may not get a T. Yelling may not get a T.
Being out of the coaching box may not get a T. Rolling a travel may not get a T.

Any combination of two will always get a T.

Yelling "travel" while making the motion always gets a T from you??

The traveling thing is an example of showing officials up with his movements and actions.

The point is I can ignore one infraction but if he's going to do 2 or 3 things he shouldn't be doing, he's getting what he's asked for.

So is that a yes?
