My life has been dedicated to communicating truth to people. I'm quite sure that I can explain that decision very easily. I've not had a coach "in my grill" in eight years but, if and when it happens, I'll be ready to deal with it. That's the advantage of being 44 instead of 25.

And the only rules justification that you have for doing so is telling them that you think that what they are doing is unsporting.

As you know, when it comes to unsporting conduct, there are only three people in the gym whose opinion counts. The coach doesn't have a vote in this one. The officials are the only unbiased people in the gym; therefore, we have to make that judgment.

I guess we'll have to wait and see. In the unlikely event that this scenario presents itself in a game that I am working, I'll have a decision to make.
