So, figuring out which play to call, which defense to use, which player to counter the other team's sub - this is
not considered coaching? Where do I find your definition of coaching? Where do I find your interpretation of the intent of the coache's box?

What I'll figure out is I need to watch where I'm going. It is exactly the same as the sub kneeling in front of the table waiting to come into the game. The coach has every right to be in the box, kneeling, standing, or humming show tunes, and it's my job to make sure I know where I'm going. If I step on a player's foot while they're sitting on the bench, should I T them up? Should I move them to the locker room because they got in my way?
