Now with this being said I'm confused how you can want respect or think you deserve respect because your an official, but feel it is ok to make a wise *** remark to that coach for no apprant reason but you wanted to feel good about yourself. It is officials making comments like these why most of society does not respect or care about officials. I'm sorry that you feel as a person you have the right talk down to someone because you assume you are better. I hope there are not more officials like you out in the world.

The coach asked Dan a question. Dan gave the coach a polite answer, appropriate to the question that he was asked.
