It sends the message I want to send and it usually stops the behavior and I have not said a single word.
If I am not on point, what are you suggesting the official do? Why is it inappropriate for an authority figure to simply look at a "student" when their behavior is inappropriate? Remember, you added all the "gotcha" stuff in the look. You or I have no idea what was said before and what was said afterwards. And even if that was the look, so what, the kid has not business popping off or acting like this is the NBA. Kids should accept the call and go to their next position.

Their behavior was not inappropriate, that's the point.
