My recommendation is just to puke on his shoes and be done with it.

BTW - I have officiated tournament games involving the Oregon City, OR girls team. They were the number one team in the nation for a few years and their coach at the time, Brad Smith, was and still is one of the absolute best coaches to have in your game. If he has a complaint, it's really in the form of a question, he waits until a break to ask and it's almost always about a rule interpretation. I can't recall him ever questioning a judgement call unless the official was out of position, and then he still does it in a respectful manner.

I guess my point is, maybe part of why the really top coaches get that way is their attitude during games.
