Seeing that I always seem to take things out of context according to the braintrust of this fine board, I was wondering how I should interpret this quote from the wonderful JRUT. I look forward to seeing how fasts all the officials ban together to insult me and defend their good old officiating buddy JRut. This should be interesting.

I do not need anyone to stick up for me, I can do that all by myself quite well.
I made the same analogy in your other post. If you were to insult a cop that was giving you a ticket, that cop might have a couple of options. They can give you a ticket or they can give you a warning and let it go. If you insult that cop and call them names, they may and will not give you the benefit of the doubt. If you are nice and respectable, they might look the other way or think twice about giving you any punishment at all.
As an official, the more a coach b!tches and complains about fouls, not only does that lose credibility from me, but you will lose credibility with my partners. Then I will not hesitate to T you, and it might not have been for much, but I am just tired of hearing your mouth. It might just be you standing out of the coaching box when we ignored that during other parts of the game. But if a coach has not complained the entire game and now I have a tough call, then they complain, I will easily consider what they have to say much more than someone that has been a bullhorn the entire game.
Just one more thing. Officials treat newer coaches just like coaches treat newer officials. If you are a brand new coach, you are not getting the same rope as the the coach that has been around 20 years and has one 3 State Titles. It is just not going to happen. I know more officials that have been around 20 years than coaches that have been around in that same time. And officials know that the players and coaches change, but the schools and the officials for the most part stay the same. And trust me, you act a fool in front of a well respected official, do not be surprised if someone else knows the situation and watches you much more closely in the next game.
Everything I am telling you has nothing to do with fantasy, it has to deal with reality. And if you are too ignorant to see that, so be it. We are all human beings. Human beings do all kind of things in this world. Do not put it past an official to be really eager to stick your *** or throw you out of a game if you act in an really bad way.
Peace
