If you're talking about someone questioning your judgment, rather than the call, I might see that. But questioning a call in an appropriate manner is part of the game. Obviously, your judgment and a player or coach's judgment will differ because of different training and experience. As long as they are not unsporting about it, I think they should have the right to question your call, as long as they are not trying to show you up.
I think he might be talking to what we love to refer to around here as the "ABS" (accumulated bullsh!t) T. What if a coach questions, in an appropriate manner, every other call? At some point they've gone beyond being respectful and have become a distraction, and therefore will need to be addressed.
