Not all coaches are rats.
Not all LL coaches are rats.
Some HS and collage coaches are serious rats, even in football and basketball.

I personally have come across more rats coaching summer ball with HS aged kids than spring LL baseball.

I don't look at a coach as a rat if he is simple trying to defend his player(s). If he gets to acting like an a&&, especially repeatedly, it is easier to feel that way. However if the umpire goes out looking the part and properly calling the part, rats rarely seen and those that are, are really obvious.
