Is this T worthy?
Coach makes the comment "every time I ask you guys a question you give me the stupidest answers."

If not what about after 3 + quarters of chirping?

That is a whack first time every time.

Not from me. But I am a patient referee. "I've heard enough coach"

After that, absolutely.

Agreed.

If the coach gets personal (insults) or questions any crew members credibility (suggests cheating) then I have very little patience. Otherwise I try to give one cler warning before I bring out the T.

That's about 3 quarters too many to allow the chirping, IMO. One, I'd be tempted to answer, "That's because you ask the stupidest questions."

In real life, however, I'd simply whack, because chances are I've already warned this clown. If you've already warned him and he pulls this, have the stones to follow through.

If you haven't warned him and he pulls this, you could still ring him up if he has earned enough of the S to get the ABS T. If this is the first clown act he's pulled, he'll likely go on ignore.

Personally, I detest superlatives, so if not a T, it's a firm "not again" from me.

Any form of stupid, superlative or otherwise, is one word too many for me.

I'd get him without even thinking about it. If he's been running his mouth for 3+ quarters chances are this isn't the first T-worthy thing that's been said.

"You won't have to worry about that for the rest of the game"

Then next time he chirps he gets T'd.

Warning at a minimum. If he's been a pain up to that point, whack him.

Pretty easy T in my book.

And yes, 3+ quarters of chirping is far far far too much.
