Post-season T report

A few seconds before this, he was frustrated over a no-call, and had I not said something, he was set to slam the ball in disgust.

When he threw the ball at me after the period ended, I could only think that if this was his way of thanking me for being preventative, he could have the T-party I prevented the moment before. Of course, his coach tried telling my partner how the kid was the most docile player on the team. But both my partner and assignor had no problem with the call. (This particular assignor wants reports on all unsporting technical fouls.)

I had this in a MS Girls game in the fall. I let an AC say way too much (yeah, I know) during the game and it left a bad taste in my mouth. And my partner's halftime advice to ignore the AC -- while a short-term solution -- did little to address the main problem. On the way back home, I told myself I would not let this happen again and made sure to write about it in my journal.
