The only time I ever got thrown out of a game really left a bad taste in my mouth for tournament directors. I was in a tournament (I won't say which one) and we were playing a team that was VERY well known throughout Ohio. We were in our first year but were doing well against them and they didn't like that. Their scorekeeper was the coaches wife and the biggest loudmouth I have ever heard. She heckled our players from the 2nd inning on, calling us names and telling us how much we stunk and had no right to be on the same field as them. After listening to this garbage for an inning, I told the umpire that he needed to shut her up, she was starting to effect my players with the name calling. After he said nothing to her and she continued belittling my players, a few parents approached me and said if that woman called their daughters fat a$$es one more time, they were pulling their kids off the field and going home. I again told the umpire my concerns and he said if I open my mouth again, I was gone. I told him that I was not arguing any call or judgement, I just wanted him to stop that woman from calling a bunch of 12 year olds names and cussing at them. He threw me out instead of her and when I tried to talk to the tournament director about it, he wouldn't even talk to me. I understand that most of the time the ejections are legit, but to throw a coach out for defending thier players against an adult with no sense is crazy. Then to have the TD not even let you explain your side is even worse. I never went back to that tournament and told everyone I know what a joke it was.
