I did not holler at this guy. I did not show him up. I did not argue with him. Nobody heard what I said to him other than him.

"The coach shall respect and support contest officials. The coach shall not indulge in conduct which would incite players or spectators against the officials. Public criticism of officials or players is unethical."

How do you explain to the parents after the game when they ask you about that play? Do you just answer "not my fault that Cell Phone McGee doesn't know the rules." I just can't fathom that and I think I would lose alot of respect for any coach that feels that way.
