Sideline warnings are SUPPOSED to be for things like - too many coaches in the box, coaches on the field, players in the coaching box, etc. Not for borderline USC.

That said - I've seen guys with much more experience than me use the SW as a "Shut up, Coach" warning. I have not, and try to use a judicious, "That's enough, coach" when appropriate, and flag as USC when appropriate (i.e. personal, flagrant).
