"Coach that's enough, I need you in your box!"
He makes his way back into his box but then keeps at it and I say...
"Coach I need you to relax"...and he comes back with...
"YOU RELAX!!!"
Whack.....he's good after that for the rest of the game....
Down the road he tells one of my partners at another game that it was the weakest "T" he's ever gotten (He's gotten a lot), and that I instigated it. when I asked/told him to relax (which I'm confident I did in a proper voice tone).
Any comments??? Bad choice of words??? Too many words???

I would have to say yes to your question. If he's that close to his box, I'm not going to ask him to get in his box.
I'm going to move down/up and keep officiating. If he wants to continue its a simple "that's enough coach."
If he continues then he's earned the T. And he's going to get it!
Thanks
