Just the T, or straight to the bench?

depending on how loud her original response was, i'd say you were a little quick with the first technical.

obviously if the sarcastic tone you mentioned came with volume loud enough for most of the gym to hear, then yes, call the technical. but if it was quiet, i'd be more likely to just say 'yes i did see that from there. you play the game, i'll worry about what i see.'

i apologize for my lack of capitalization. the computer i'm on does not have a working shift key.

Sorry, but there's almost zero chance this doesn't get a T from me or anyone in my association. A coach can ask politely about my positioning, but a player doesn't get to do it disrespectfully.

And volume isn't definitive.

Flagrant wouldn't enter my mind at all in this situation, but it's a definite T regardless of volume.

I think a T is most appropriate for the first case.

As my father use to say "We are not equals"

Officials and players are not equals, I don't care how loud she was. If it was a coach that whispered it, that's a different matter IMO. A coach is an adult (if only by age ). And at this level, players are still kids.
