Imo, if you still let 'em roam after they get a T, you're defeating the purpose of the penalty, as well as making the job of the next crew in that much harder if they haveta T up that coach too....
I agree with what you have said here whole-heartedly. What I was envisioning is a coach that has lost his coaching/instructional priviledges and that as I run by he wants to attract my attention SO HE STANDS UP and asks, "Who was that on?" "Lane violation number 25." I continue on my merry way and he sits back down. Anything more than that should not be tolerated. ROAMING NOT ALLOWED.

I didn't mean to imply anything else.

Yeah, in HS Baseball you can restrict them to the dugout. "You're in the dugout coach for the rest of the game Coach and I don't want to hear another peep out of you." That would be fun to impose on some of our posters.

YOU ARE NOW PEEPLESS.
