I find coaches who run to the lines funny, like a carnival show, always brings a smile to my face.

Bob if you feel threatened or upset when a coach runs to a foul line acting like an ***, OK by me. I don't so as long as they stay off the field, I'm not as thin skinned as BigUmp566, as I said, I find them humurous.
People on this forum get some kind of kiddie thrill announcing how in control they are, tough on managers, etc. I think its all bluster and rare action myself but, hey, let them live their fantasies, makes me no repose.

Running at the umpire is often interpreted as "showing up the umpire" (if not all by itself, then in conjunction with other acts). A manager who runs / charges at the umpire is going to have a shorter leash than one who walks out to discuss the play.

Operative word is interpreted. I don't interpret coaches who stay off the field as any big deal and this "showing up", I really never bought into much of that either. Asses who act like asses are asses. If another player or participant or fan looks at an *** being an *** and somewhow comes to the conclusion that
I am the ***, know what, I just located another ***...sitting in the stands. Let me get bent out of shape worrying about how the asses view my skills? Don't think so.
