Do you pick your spots for calling the IP based on game situation?
Any one who claims they don't either 1) hasn't been in any games with situations, or 2) is lying.
Do you give pitchers that are IPing every pitch some leeway after calling it once if they are making an effort to be legal?
Somewhat, yes. If they are close to legal, and working at it, absolutely. But, when they relapse, or if they can't get close, it has to be called.
Should I have jacked the coach for bringing the situation up again in between innings after my declaration that we were done discussing it on the field during the 6th inning?
Depends. If it was a conversation, not an arm-waving demonstration, he was doing his job; give him that freedom. If he can't let it go, let him go.
