He's a fairly senior member in the association, so I don't expect he would have had the same problems I had. I'm guessing the V coach would have shown more restraint sitting at the team bench, but I really won't know until I hear back from the evaluator.
And Tim, aside from that moment in time where I lost my head, we had a pretty uneventful, but not very well played, game. I'm not sure which one of us got the better deal in the end. Good luck with your shiny shoes. Interestingly enough, my evaluation made no mention of other things I know I didn't do "by the book". I guess my "shut up" comment rose to the top of the pile...

No, what would have been funny was if you were filling in on the JV game and you were staying to do HIS game.
In Arizona schools must follow the state's Pursuing Victory with Honor program. The varsity coaches display was unacceptable under our sportsmanship code. The school's AD and the varsity officials watching would file a report here in AZ, if something like that happened.
We also have a Walk Worthy in the Uniform program, so your reaction would also enter into the discussion.
Remember, nothing good comes from reacting to the stands. You look bad, and it is pouring gas on the fire because now they know they can get to you. Ignore it, or stop the game and let game management take care of it.
