I agree, our attention isn't really focused on the bench and sometimes it's difficult to hear where it's coming from. When I do catch it for sure, at the next opportunity I simply tell the HC to get his bench under control. Like JR said, only one whiner allowed per bench - the HC....and even that has a limit....
