Sometimes the best course of action is nothing. Just as it is not a coach's place to tell us our job, it's not our place to lecture a coach' about what we feel they should be doing.
While the coach's behavior in this case was unacceptable, when we begin to lecture the coach we become the aggressor and we lose credibility. We can't become the aggressor at anytime.
As has been mentioned in previous posts, I would have given a stern, "thats enough coach", and walked away. My Mom always told me that a little "wholesome neglect" was the best way to handle a two year old's tantrum.
