Re: Question about Questions from a Coach

"I've noticed some difference in the way you two are calling certain things. Do you guys think you could talk it over?"

Would this approach be likely to offend? I know if there is some way to communicate without being confrontational, everybody is better off. On the other hand, am I better off biting my tongue and just hoping it will all even out in the end?
Coach,
I have no problem with a coach asking anything, particularly if he saw everything clearly from his spot "on the floor?" (You remember where the box is, Coach?" )
If you are reasonable, you won't get a "T" 100% of the time.
