Agree. How many of us keep track of the player control fouls that we give in a season. Or the team control fouls? Or rebounding fouls. Or fouls on players in the act of shooting. A player illegally contacts an opponent, we call a foul. A coach says something inappropriate, we call a foul. It's just a foul, like any other foul.

I know. I know. It's somehow a little different than any other foul. So, maybe we discuss it for a day, or two, with our colleagues, maybe at an adult beverage establishment. Or, maybe we post about it here, on the Forum. But keeping track of them over an entire season, that a little bit overboard. It's not a contest.

I will have as many Ts as I find necessary during my games. Hopefully no more and no less. Whether it's 2 or 22, I really don't care.

(And anyone that says they're just like any other fouls are fooling themselves. They aren't.)

We do keep track of "T"s here.

Some officials call too many, some call too few. But we had one official toss the same coach twice in 2 games.

Here we have to write a report when we call any "T". ( That's on the West Virginia side ) we are a dual state board.

As many as I need.

I've whacked 3 coaches this far I think. A handful of players also.
