Ejection Fest 07

[Steve M]

This year's two tosses have come within the psat 2 weekends - one in a men's major tournament and this weekend while doing 12&U B's.
The last time I used a big-finger ejection was about 7-8 years ago on a kid - and both father & daughter loved it. Her coach-father had been tossed and allowed to stay in the area. Daughter was not in the game at that time and went to sit with him. As BU, I saw this and just told the new head coach that she could not now enter the game. Later on, when talking with father & daughter I explained why she wasn't allowed to enter the game. With a smile, she asked if that meant she was ejected too. Laughing, I gave her the big finger toss and said "Now you can really say you were tossed."

I think Mike's right, FP is catching up to SP. I'm finding that I'm less tolerant of the garbage than I was 5 years ago. Maybe I'm just recognizing more now that some folks really don't want to be in a particular game - and once recognized, acknowledged.
