You've got no idea of the history between these two, and unless you've got more contact with them than you're letting on, I'd go so far as to say you probably have no business getting involved. It's for the players, parents, and coach to hash out later.

The only involvement I can justify is if either of their behavior warrants a T. Tell them to save it for after the game and move on.

See my (not very long) post on the previous page...or any of Mick's posts in this thread...
