Jmo Clark, it's fine to tighten up if they start to get a l'il more physical than you like or start to yap at each other- but just make sure that you tighten up both ways. Iow, make the calls the same at both ends. That's our job- not playing judge and jury on what is really a coach's perogative in the first place. Personally, I never tell the coaches how to do their job. That just seems kinda unreasonable to me if I'm not gonna let them tell me how to do my job also.
