I'll add a couple of thoughts...1)Understand that officials don't give a rat's a$$ who wins the game - we are there to manage the game. So making comments about the job we are doing serves no purpose...2)An unofficial "rule" most officials follow is that "a legitimate question deserves a legitimate response" - so if you have something you don't understand or agree with, ask it as a legitimate question...3)realize the things that upset officials are the same types of comments that upset you when coming from your team parents and directed towards you - challenging your authority, integrity, authority, and/or honesty...doesn't sit well with you, won't sit well with us...4)yelling never works, so don't do it...and lastly, my pet peeve is trying to show officials up - esp. when a ref makes a call against a player and the coach yells "Hey 54, that was a nice box-out/block/steal" or whatever was just called...
