Re: would you speak to the coach?

If it's flagrant, you just call it as such. You never worry about 2-game suspensions or anything like that. A flagrant act is a flagrant act.

I just can't imagine a player committing a flagrant foul, and an official then refusing to call it as such because a suspension might be involved. If you want to make any suggestions to a coach about getting a player out of the game to cool him down, you'd better do it before that player commits a flagrant foul- not after.
