Yes I am consistent. I officiate the game, not society. The coach is part of the team and can be dealt with accordingly. I not even sure how you can marry the two together? You will be a very busy guy dealing with players coaches and fans. Remember I wasn't in favor of abusive behavior, just didn't think it was my job to deal with it. There are rare times when the game needs to stop to control,or remove a spectator. But for booing, clever signage, and turning back during visiting intros? Not my problem. If the school admin. isn't worried why should I be.
