It is my job to try and win whatever I have to do (within the rules). I am trying to advance, just like I did when I was officiating. If you as a coach expect your players to give you everything they have, you have to do the same. When I got the first technical, I did not "lose it" or blow up, I asked a question (yes I was being a smart A$$), and I didn't like the answer (which included that is enough), so I said something else and got the "T". When I got the first T, I sat down, and did not get up again. (Except for T.O.'s) IThe other part of this story is I had these referees three straight days. All three games were very close, and hotly contested. I personally think that having them three days in a row probably led both parties to having their fill of each other. As for why do I care, because I care about my players
