Sorry but that's complete and total bull$hit. It makes no difference whether he makes his living as a coach or not. He's an asst. coach tonight. Further, I expect to hear stupid things from fans, coaches and players. But no official should have to tolerate profane, vulgar, or racist comments directed toward them.

How 'bout you use little commone sense? No one said that it "makes him a racist." But it's definitely a racist comment from the coach. He used the word "bigot" to say that the official was cheating his team because they were of a different skin color. That's damn sure a racist remark.
