on an earlier thread someone said, when a coach is barking out something he didn't like, to say " what is your question coach?".
I tried it in a mid school game yesterday. I called a block on his player and he want a charge.
He is yelling that his player had position, so I calmly walked up and said "and what is your question coach??".
He explained himself and I said "I appreciate your question but in my judgement, I didn't see it that way. It seemed to difuse the whole thing, as the coach nodded in approval.
I hope it works that well the next time
