The main problem I have with that comment is the fact the next time he questions something, you better stick him. Or you will not have much credibility after that point.

I think saying "Coach I cannot have to officiating the game all night" is a better response because it lets the coach know you they need to get back to coaching and not telling you how to do your job. Then a coach has been at the very least warned, but you do not have to take a zero tolerance position if they ask you a very legitimate question. Just my opinion.

Peace
