I agree with with a few things here.
1. The unsporting T was prbably appropriate. The comments weren't personal (at this point). You only have a frustrated coach that likely lost the game. Your T probably puts the game out of reach. Punishment enough and you made your point that you won't tolerate that behavior. A Flagrant T will do more to incite the fans.
2. Ok. Fine. Your partner failed you. That sucks. Still, you have to toss on the threatening remarks. Sounds like everyone in the gym would know why he got this one. Moreover, a flagrant T is more than warranted here. This will be backed up by your game report. Coach deservingly misses his next contest. And if you ever see him again, he knows you will take care of business.
Nice job the way you handled this though. Your thoughts make sense. We have the benefit of time to gather our thoughts.
