Just this past weekend, I flag and DQ a B player for kicking an opponent who was lying on the ground. The coach and player complain, "He was tackling him." I reply, "Coach, it couldn't have been much of a tackle if he's on the ground and you're player is standing over him and kicking him."
This would be one of those times that I'd have to bite back the witty, but unprofessional, response: "Coach, if that's how you're teaching your kids to tackle, you need to look for a new line of work."
