Way back when I coached I once had an incident during playoffs where the umpire made a protestable call. As I was explaining to the blue his error my catcher chimed it with a "He's right." meaning me. I turned on her and told her to be quiet that it's my job to talk to the umpire when he has made a mistake. They were both taken aback because I was clearly unhappy with the call but I still don't allow anything resembling disrespect by one of my players.

Too bad some kids think that they can say what they want, but it's worse when adults let them say what they want.
