I completely disagree with that particular officiating philosophy. If an official sees unsporting behavior, then that official should damnwell deal with that unsporting behavior. That's supposed to be part of our mandate. Dealing with it might mean a stop sign or a simple "that's enough", but deal with it.

Personally, I'll be damned if I'll let a coach vent at me. I'll handle my own problems without depending on someone else to bail me out.
