Help me understand how a coach is exhibiting sportsmanship when he stands on the court and stares at you during a time out.

It's also unsportsmanlike for the coach to yell out "You gotta call that Ref!!!" but I don't always give him/her a T. It's a judgement call. A staring coach is more comical to me than aggravating. I wouldn't give a T, but it wouldn't bother me if my partner did.
-good comment.

Chuck if staring is doing nothing, next time I go to the beach with my wife can I stare at some young woman and after I get busted answer--"What, I wasn't doing anything."

Okay, that's actually probably what I will answer but it's better not to get caught doing this nothing.
