Sara,
Congrtulations for surviving a disaster. Do you read Referee magazine? This month's issue points out that the worst sportsmanship in sports is in the rec level and professional. You would probably agree with that now. I've seen it in basketball and soccer.
Also, at the risk of sounding sexist and I don't mean to be, I've worked with women partners and have found that male coaches will often say things to them during a game that they wouldn't dare say to me or another man. The F U quote for her came at an 8th grade girl's Catholic Jr. High district champioship. He also bumped her when he was saying it. She's 5'3 - 120. I'm 6'1 - 215. He'd have never done that to a male referee. We made sure he was written up for the incident. Don't take that off of any coach, especially some rec league coach who has reached the zenith of his illustrious coaching career!
