When you saw the
coach was playing the crowd you might have had a quick word
with him. Non-threatening, quietly, just you and he during
a dead ball. "Coach, your behavior is undermining my
authority and I can't have it." No one else should hear
this, because you have laid down the law to him and let him
know who's in charge. Either he'll get it and stop or he
won't and then you have got to take him immediately.
This guy wanted to make it personal between you and he,
you needed to cut him off at the knees right away. IMO. [/B][/QUOTE]
I agree. There are games where there is no good in talking, you just have to take care of business from the get go. Where was your partner during this? We are a team and should support each other. Hopefully the other official did.
