I've noticed that some refs seem proud of T'ing up coaches, while others seem equally proud of rarely doing so. Please consider that many times the coach wants to get T'ed up for some arcane reason. See this story for an AAU coach who credits getting an unsportsmanlike technical foul for his team's victory: http://www.tallahassee.com/mld/talla...ts/8973398.htm

"I didn't think things were going our way - not only get the message to the officials but also get the message to our kids," said Smith, who was assessed the technical for a tirade following a non-call on the offensive end with the game deadlocked at 46-46. "They know how to respond."
So you may actually be doing the coach a favor! I wonder if he gave the ref the game ball.
