My point here is I don't know how that clipboard got on the floor, but if it was right after a call that didn't go their way, I can put 2 an 2 together. Maybe the coach has something he/she wants to say. Now, I'm going to give them a chance to say it, especially since they just insulted me (officials are human) with that C/B. I might even give them a little extra time to make sure I let them express themselves, that way they don't have to throw the C/B again. Don't be afraid to take care of business here.

If the coach and their behavior is going to be your focus, then who is focused on the game??

Right now the ball is dead, my partners can watch the players. Plus the players are not the problem right now. We might have an out of control coach, which either way can be bad for your game. I consider this a problem spot in my game and I'm going to address it right now. Left unaddress, could cause major problems for the rest of the game. Coach got nothing to say, I might say, if that C/B hits the floor again, somebody going to be headed to the locker room.
