As far as the timeout, if you were aware and you had told the coach he was out and you make 100% sure the player wants a timeout, what more can you do? You take the burden off your shoulders when you notify him that he is out.
Now the first situation... He was "close to a T"? If a coach calls me pathetic and a joke, he will not be close to a T, he will be close to the showers. It sounded like there was some confusion as to what the call was and maybe you need to address that. Probably could have prevented his rant by being clearer with the call, but don't let a coach embarrass you by calling you a joke.
