This was the first time I have ever had someone in the stands that I knew was a coach do something like that at one of my games. I don't care if the casual fan, parent or kid complains. I actually get a kick out of that sort of thing. I was just so shocked that the V coach would be so loud and boisterous and make it so personal. Again, this being only my second year in this association, I am still discovering the different personalities. And I'm trying to move up and do the right thing. For me, the right thing is what my commissioner tells me. I'm angry at myself for how I originally handled it, but I am satisfied with the way I handled it afterwards. I fessed up to my commissioner and asked how he wanted it handled in the future. Clearly things are done differently in other areas. I respect that. And Tim, I wish the guy was on the bench so I could have handled it myself. In my opinion, the guy was a coward knowing he was outside of my reach in the stands and I couldn't do anything about it. It's on him...I'm done with it.
