Cussin? Excessive BS?

Adult league play-offs. The game was supposed to be a blow-out, but the lower-seeded team was actually hanging very close. It was probably a 6 point game at this point.

This guy just went bat-bleep crazy. He complained about a call on one trip down, then absolutely just flipped over a perceived no-call on the next trip. Cursing, jumping, out on the court. Just totally out of control. I whacked him. One of his players then told me what he thought about the call. So I whacked him, too.

In truth, I should have run the coach with a second T right then; but I walked away and he thankfully calmed down enough that he was (barely) under control.

Then in the second half, his player dribbles into a double-team trap, gets stripped and the coach wants a foul and again just goes insane. So I whacked him again. His player then throws the ball over the fence and into the street. So my partner whacked him.

The coach -- surprise! -- doesn't want to leave. He left.

He might as well leave. The alternative is GAME OVER.
