I just think if all the coach is doing is crying for a travel, hand check or some little foul, go to the HC and give them a chance to correct it. If they cannot handle their coach, then it is T time.

I know I have been criticized for saying this before, but if you have a certain presence and know how to talk to a HC, you can eliminate a lot of problems. I have also found that if you address the behavior and not the issue that they are complaining about, then you might find out you will not need to give a T at all. I had two coaches after I said something to the HC turn around and say, "Will you guys shut up!!"

Peace

what happens when u warn the coach and he turns around and says "will you guys shut the !@#$ up?!" haha
