He returns to the sideline, but continues his tirade. I give him the stop sign trying to avoid the ejection, but he won’t stop. So I bang him with another. He also proceeds to drop an “F” bomb before he leaves the gym.

My question is this. Do you or should you ever apologize to the coach for probably missing one? Or should you just move on and forget about it?
Had the coach not gone ballistic, you might have been able to have a nice conversation and said something like, "I'll try to get a better look through the key next time coach." But since he made that conversation impossible, just let it go.
