TrojanHorse:
As I mentioned in my original response, I am not "calling you out." In fact, I have cause to believe you do an admirable job as a coach and official. I just wanted to identifying a group of "coaches" who insist on making a scene and you offered the context (in one instance) that applied to mindset I wanted to discuss.
Additionally, I, too, am embarrassed for the the avocation of officiating when people put on the stripes and make a mockery of the position. Unethical behavior such as you described above seriously frustrates me and all others who genuinely officiate for the love of the game and the positive values it can promote.
