I have a problem with the attitude that ONLY a head coach can talk or question an umpire. Like it or not, part of every coach's job is to act on behalf of their team. I believe that ignoring a coach solely because s/he is not the head coach is arrogant and counterproductive. That particular coach may be the one who saw the play and could actually be correct.
I'm not talking about a coach acting like an idiot. That person should be ignored or ejected regardless of their title.
JMHO
