He received a T in his first game back. That was two weeks ago. If he is ejected again, he's out for the year and must appeal to the Board next season if he wants to come back and coach ever again. He has two boys in the program and he may want to coach the same kid or possibly his younger son or even both next year.

The Board VP then called me to say he wants me to do the game because he "knows I will be very straightforward regarding this guy's behavior". He will be at the game, also.

I haven't had this coach before, so as far as I'm concerned, we shall see what we shall see.

Oh yeah - my partner for the game is a young man (5 years experience) who really calls the games tight and doesn't take any crap from anybody. This is gonna be fun. It's my first game of the day (I have three more) so it will probably set the tone for me.
I've got a similar problem next week, and the coach, similar in behavior to yours, is my next door neighbor!
