This is just my opinion and so far it is working for me.
Exactly, I'm NOT saying that any T's HAVE to be given by anyone.

But the original post he was asking about possible ways to handle a coach like this and that was why I made that suggestion.

Often times the other official can help to keep a coach under control especially if he's having problems with only one official.

But, when a coach wants the T, give him what he asks for.

Thanks
David
