I would say, our team will grow from that experience and is the better team but learned sometimes not all goes as planned...... We'll rebound, Period! Next question please?

When whoever speaks and the negative questions start you ask them what they mean and more than likely they will say what you're talking about.

As CP said....... Others saw what you saw I'm sure

I used to Coach as well....got fvckin' tried of all the bs...just let it go...you're fighting a LOSING BATTLE

absolutely. Even if you do prove 100% without a doubt the game was unfairly called. Nothing would happen. Its tuff but have to let it go

If you're a white male over the age of 15 you are basically responsible for everything bad in the world today. The mahnoritees will take it out on you any way they can, including stealing your parking space, keying your car, stealing your iPhone and yes,…glaringly unfair reffing in kids basketball.

You (we) have an enormous debt to repay (according to Al Sharpton, Spike Lee etc etc etc)

It is 8th grade basketball. You job is to develope the skills of your players, not to win games. If you or your parents do not understand this distinction, you need to step back and re-evaluate your priorities.

If winning were everything I would have yelled at the ref, got a T and called the league office after the game.

Look at it as a learning opportunity for the kids.

Sometimes in life you get the shaft. It's how you handle it that counts. Be a good example, that's what you're there for.

This is what you should have done and left at halftime

Now the other team thinks this is how you win

I tied up a rec league game with 15 seconds left after hitting 2 free throws. With 10 seconds left - the other team inbounded and i stole the ball reaching my arms out to the side and the ref gave me a Techincal Foul and claimed i reached over the line and took the ball from the player. And guess what? I was the only white player on the court, but it was called by the 1 white ref - i think it was some reverse racism - keeping our own people down
