A coach has bigger problems to worry about than trying to ref the game or work the officials. If he's on you consistently, you want to address this as soon as it becomes obvious that he's going to be doing it consistently. I like what was posted here recently:
Strike 1: "Coach, I hear you." or "Coach, I understand"
Strike 2: "Coach, that's enough" and show the stop sign.
Strike 3: Whack.
I also subscribe to Chuck's ABS philosophy. This kind of coach behavior usually isn't deserving of an instant T. But over time, the sum of the bad behavior is. Don't let it ride just because he hasn't said or done any one thing that's worthy of a T.
