Will I be seeing you in couple of weeks at the Seigel Center?

I wouldn't hold my breath.

I am working with one of your buddies this Sunday though.

The coach who received the tech had just lost. We didn't shoot the free throws, as we were already running 45 minutes late and both A teams were streaming on the court to warm up. I know we should officiate all games the same, but that is just how it happened this time around.

You wouldn't shoot free throws in this situation anyways, as they would have no impact on the outcome of the game.
