I do have a friend that is still an official but runs the official scorebook for the school his daughter graduated from (she is playing a D1 program now) when he is in town and not officiating. He would tell the coach in so many words when to not complain because the official knew what they were talking about. I also know they would talk often about calls and situation. It did help the coach out and he would realize when to let something go. Now I am not suggesting you do that, but it is not a first to have some advice from a coach. I do not know if you should sit on the bench, but I would not have a problem with talking to a coach every now and then if I am not going to work their games.

Peace
